Where should Next Years Big Weekend Be?

North Or South?

[-sophie- 10]

North!

[MrDoovdeHaxorz 11]

Well it's been North Wales, so how about over to the East?

[The Stig 11]

We haven't even had this one yet!

[John 10]

Needs to be oop norf

[Lee. 10]

East and by east I mean leicester!!!

[jesss 10]

south-east, london!

Leicester is as about as middle as you can be!

[Chippy 10]

A little early to think about 2011, seeing how 2010 hasn't happened yet.

[-sophie- 10]

It was more of an argument-resolving thread...

[Tyler1994 10]

South Is Winning

[MrDoovdeHaxorz 11]

As I type, 4 East, 3 South, 2 North, 0 West. I guess the current one is a bit West.

[Guest PineapplesLikeAarons]

South! Poole...

[Tom. 10]

lets have it in MY town...

(if they need a reason, they could blame it on the ticket scandal that rocked maidstone, as they got postcodes wrong, and people 10 miles away were winning multiple tickets, those that in the roads nearest got none)

[jimmytubbs 10]

Looks like people want South East area

[-sophie- 10]

That's unfair. Everything is centred around the south-east. It's as if nowhere else exists sometimes!

[John 10]

I know! Yorkshire has been ignored by Radio 1 when it comes to the Big Weekend. 10 Big Weekends, and not one in Yorkshire

Yes, and it's the biggest county in the UK. How can they avoid it?

[John 10]

May 2011, BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend, Live from Greenhead Park, Huddersfield!

[-sophie- 10]

Yeah! ...Except it's much much smaller than the Bangor site. I don't know how much space they're using up.

[John 10]

Yeah! ...Except it's much much smaller than the Bangor site. I don't know how much space they're using up.

Yeah it is a bit smaller than some areas. There is a huge area in Halifax called Manor Heath and Saville Park. With some planning, it would work there.

[MrDoovdeHaxorz 11]

Wollaton Hall, Nottingham. Already holds a music festival in July, has 2 large areas that could easily fit a stage each. Has Deer that roam the place too.

[John 10]

One of the major flaws with a lot of these open spaces that could stage such events is parking.

[MrDoovdeHaxorz 11]

Yes that might also be a problem with my suggestion, but there's huge spaces each side of the house and 2 different roads to get into it as well as a few more pedestrian entrances. There are big carparks within 5-10mins walk and one side of the house has been used for parking at events before.
