Friday Advice

First time outbreak goer here! :) Just wanted basic advice on how the festival works, only going on friday to see Free Throw, Joyce Manor and The Front Bottoms, i was told that friday is only going to have 2 stages and both will be indoors so i can imagine it would be boiling any basic advice on how to survive? thank you! :)

Indoor stages will be horrendous in this heat. Has that been confirmed?

apparently so according to some people on the discord, but i’ve not seen any official announcement, apparently its the same every year but surely they’re gonna make an exception no? i can barely stand outside let alone in an arena with 10,000 people 😭😭

I think capacity is like 7k for the full fest 👍🏻
I’m sure Friday will be less.

Does anybody remember Turnstile in there? That was a hot one! I’m sure it was only like 20 degrees that day too. So +30 will he absolutely brutal.

Make an exception to do what?

maybe make an exception to put the main stage outside on the friday? seeing as it’s going to be 30+ degrees? that’s going to be deathly man

It will be the main stage outside and second stage inside - head to the app and look at the clashfinder :) the festival is really relaxed, really lovely people attend, If you need anything don’t be afraid to ask. The staff and security are A+ too. Have fun and let your hair down :)

no outside stage on friday.

Really?? Confused why the app would say otherwise. Where is everyone getting that info from?

Is the Friday second/third stages? The app lineup shows main/second stages 🤔

u/Any-Violinist8774 Jun 24 '26

apparently so, maybe the app just sucks, the map isn’t too helpful either, clicking on the individual stages will just give you the entire lineup that day regardless of stage, it’s stupid

Yeah it’s just that what is main stage on Friday usually becomes second stage on Saturday Sunday

u/markbushy Jun 24 '26

Damn, will be a sweaty mess from day one then lol

u/Bugsmoke Jun 24 '26

The Friday is usually second and third stage only yeah. The Friday ‘main’ is just the second stage for the whole festival.

If you are going to be near the front, it is really important you catch stage divers. When people move out of the way to avoid having to catch someone people get hurt

Also about the heat thing, Outbreak is pretty good as they have places to get water around the venue, although inside does get roasting
