Quote from: MPK @ RA
OK so next year we are looking at a couple of options.

1) similar to this year.
2) Three day party;

Friday 2pm to 11pm.
Saturday 12pm to 1am.
Sunday 12pm to 10pm.
Camping on site, lush green venue (we have to finish early if we want this part).

I'm leaning towards option 2...

i wouldnt mind a return to the showgrounds. it was really well setup, the only thing that killed it was the heat.

How about a day party option?

Or a 2 day, day party option with ravey sounds one day, house/trance/electro the next?

Having tasted Camp Bisco in New York a few months ago, I'm all for the multiple day festivals. But they have to be run right. From what I hear about the police presence at this year's Enchanted, I'm not sure if SA is ready to accept such a thing. If it were the case though, I would certainly buy a ticket.

 Dunno if this would be possible but I would want to be able to take my own alcohol, and be able to drink in the camping area.

 The event area would be fine unlicensed imo.

 Fuck going camping and not be able to drink.

When i went to Pyramid Festival on Phillip Island we smuggled some booze in, we also had some confiscated at the gate, there was security roaming the parking lot but they didn't seem to mind if you had a beer in your hand...It was my first 2 day festival experience and it was pretty feral and not really run that well..In saying that I am sure that the enchanted would not have as many people there (I think there was around 10,000 at Pyramid)

It would definitely have to be organised right and run well. I agree with Spanks, I'd wanna be able to take my own alcohol and drink it in the camping area.

Shudders at the thought of the serious amount of sketch that would be floating around there come Sunday night.

Could see a masive hole in the ozone layer caused purely by that.

Yeh I dont think I could handle 2 or 3 days around a bunch of sketchies  teef even though Im probably the sketchiest of them all  laugh

Could Adelaide possibly have the amount of people attend to be able to have a serious festival?  Im not too sure

If you are going to have a 2 or 3 day festival you have to make it cost viable for the EF crew, so you would have to have a big number attending.

The more days the festival runs for, the more cash they will have to pay upfront

I've done the 3 day camping rave thing and found it to be not as great as I thought it should be. And that was when I was younger and not the bitter old man I am now funkyj

I'd prefer a 2 day party set up and go home and refresh myself for the next day.

2 day womad style where it's near town and you can go home/to a mates place once the music stops. i can't see a 3 day camping one selling that many tickets imo

agreed, it'd be good but the attendance would be a worry.

Was the 3 day camping extravaganza brainstormed with a location in mind?

I reckon that would be so much fun!

As long as there were showering facilities. Like, real showers. Not a river.

a 3 day event would be bonkers! my preference would be a 24 or 32 hour event, that way you get the best of both day and night without the possible shitness of waking up, feeling like shit in a hot stuffy tent at lunch time

hmmm

seems like it was hard enough to keep the crowd going from 3pm till 7am at the last one.

being enchanted , im not sure the day party is what its about. more an all night thing.

nothing was better than the old raves atarting at 9pm finishing around 7 am. thats what id do.

enchanted needs to shift towards the daytime festival model thats proving huge at the moment, but book acts as they currently do. otherwise it will simply stop gettin the numbers to break even and then we wont have anythin icon_cry

im stoked for summer break, cant think of one reason not to go.
enchanted pendulum were the only reason i was gunna go ( same as last year)
also too much heat on your way in/out its turning itno risky business the coppers just love the fact that 5000 ravers are at the end of a st with one entrance/ exit and 90% have their own cars there while off their titties
lol

day party in the city for me. Enchanteds have turned into a big social catch up with friends(for me) and love bein able to do that over a beer(has replaced the light sabre) and good tunes

right on Quaz

people who want to rave will rave at Enchanted, but it turns away people who don't want to rave out

this is the reason I haven't been to an Enchanted since Matrix/Lee and I didn't really want to go to that one

aren't all these daytime festivals, club parties and regular club nights not enough for people to catch up etc? enchanted is the only all night party adelaide has....

It seemed to work well with the old DAWN parties over new years, apart from the bushfires...

A party in the city, whether it be day or night is my preference.
Oh and liquor licensing for Enchanted would be good.

Although I had a ball at the last Enchanted, the outdoor raving thing is starting to get a bit long in the tooth for me personally. Even if the party was in a different venue, with trees and grass etc etc, I'm still not sure if I would attend.

Your not one of those annoying people that can only be adventurous after spending thousands on flights are you?

Two day festival is looking the goods at the moment. Nice venue within a short drive of town with alcohol...
