gocanux Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 GoogleMaps isn't giving me the location of the venue. Help! Also, does anyone have experience with this festival? Advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molkette Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 It's Main square festival, not City square Arras is located in the north of France, in the Pas-de-Calais department, near Lille, Lens and Douai. The festival used to take place on the "main square" of the city but from now on I think it's held in the "citadelle", it's nice, Arras is a great city, very charming!

Orc21 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 And it's only 50 minutes away from Paris by train, the station being very close to the venue. Very convenient. As for Google Maps, just look for "Citadelle d'Arras" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caroline_copin Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hello, I'm desperately searching for one ticket for the 04/07/15 at the Main Square in Arras. Thank you for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belisha Beacon Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) I'd like to get a ticket to this too. Looks like a lovely little jaunt across the water for those in the UK not going to Download. http://www.festicket.com/ say their packages for this show are not yet on sale. A possible hope though if the general sale was 3 months ago perhaps a remote one... Edited March 31, 2015 by Belisha Beacon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be the same before with Skip The Use who will play before Muse on the same stage, fans will miss the beginning of Royal Blood's show on the other stage.

madcowjo Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Cheers to the lovely French "workers" at Calais for jeopardising my trip this weekend DPDS ferries should sack the flaming lot of them when they take over tomorrow, plenty of migrants camping out over there who would jump at the chance of a job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcowjo Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Your English is pretty darned good, I can't find anything wrong with it! Am so excited for Main Square, travel plans look to be unaffected by the strike now. I am convinced I am going to be the only English person there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respublica Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Thanks @madcowjo I really wanted to go there with a friend, but our parents said no because we were too young (doesn't matter, we'll go to another festival next year ) Oh, I'm sure you won't be the only English person ! Arras isn't really far from England, I mean, it's located in the North of France so I think several English people will be there ^^ I'll be watching the show on the internet (I hope my internet connection will be better than last night for Roskilde Festival !).

madcowjo Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Brilliant last night, apart from Madness, but hey ho the French seem to love it. Great to hear Supremacy and Apocalypse Please. Sound was a bit iffy where I was but Matt's vocals were superb. But please don't play JFK prelude without following it with Defector though, was a real let down even though I love Uprising. It was so hot in the square and very cramped, the Green Room was much a much nicer environment. Oh and to whoever hid one of my shoes from outside my tent last night...Grow Up but yah boo sucks I found it so NER!. Hurry up with the UK tour lads.
