Splendour Festival boss addresses bar issues as fans queued for up to an hour

Thousands of music fans at Splendour will be delighted to hear that issues with the card payments and bar queues have been fixed ahead of the second day on Sunday, July 24. Fans complained about the 'sluggish' service speeds which saw some visitors waiting up to an hour for a drink.

The festival, which has returned after two years off, trialled a new system for the first time which saw long queues form at each of the five bars on site. There are other bars including a carnival-themed cocktail bar, a bar in the VIP and a Kopperberg cider bar.

There were on average 20,000 music fans attending the Saturday with similar numbers expected on Sunday, not to mention crew, performers, staff and the many teams responsible for putting on the show.
