DomWall123 10 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Big Weekend has been confirmed to be in Carlisle at the airfield, by my 2 mates, one works for the people who create the road diversions, and radio1 have contacted them to check they could do it. My other mate, works for the ambulance service, who have been contacted to be the medical staff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 10 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 This is AWESOME if it's true. If people who were around here 2 years ago remember, I moved from a town near to Swindon to the lake district just before the location was announced and it was more than annoying seeing all the pictures from people on facebook. Airport seems likely if the location is Carlisle, Don't think there's anywhere in the city centre big enough to hold it.Any ideas on dates?

abertom 11 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 why have it up north again? Should be North/South rotation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
James R 10 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 why have it up north again? Should be North/South rotation Again? Last year was Wales which isnt north. 2009 was Swindon which is South-west 2008 was Kent which is South-East. 2007 was north so by my reckoning its about right Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abertom 11 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Bangor is North Wales - if it was South Wales or something then could understand Quote Link to post Share on other sites
James R 10 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Bangor is North Wales - if it was South Wales or something then could understand But Wales as a whole is west not north so Carlisle would make sense for north/south Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tom. 10 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 By whom? Greg I suppose? I reckon there may be a friday as well... Grimmy the other night said "She could play Friday at the big weekend"And playing: Jessie J and the Vaccines. Chris played them both during the marathon and then said "What a combination. I'm saying nothing" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ParawhoreZoee 10 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Heard it's at Carlisle Airport this year. They put on their site that they wouldn't be taking bookings between 14/15th may due to Radio 1, then quickly took it down to just say that they wouldn't be taking bookings. Also heard that Live Nation have got permission to play music, serve alcohol etc between 1st May and 1st June. Hope it is in Carlisle though, live about 10 minutes from it so it would be great!

awinfield999 10 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 it can't be long away... anyone else heard the short jingle thing before Pretty Reckless on R1 this morning?
