Anyone know if you can turn up at any point? Not bothered about any of the support acts and as my little brother is only up until Sunday morning the day would be better spent doing other things in London.

Yes, you can arrive any time you want and once you enter the park, you can't leave to be back later.

Thanking you - just the answer I wanted. Do we know what time Bon Jovi are due on stage?

It's a VERY strict 10.30 curfew.

With all the opening acts, I can't imagine them coming on any sooner than 8.

Also with it being a 60,000 capacity, and a flat venue I'm very glad that I'm not going. Wouldn't get down there much before 6 if we were going and there would be nothing worse than standing behind 45,000 other people, watching a few dots on the horizon and clapping completely out of synch with the music due to accoustics.

They should be playing venues in the Midlands/South East with seating options for those of us that can't start queueing up at ridiculous o'clock.

Apparently HRC via twitter have said they expect the band to be on stage around 7 and will do a cira 3hr set. Dont know how much truth is in it, or if they were just trying to shift miore ticks. No doubt we will find out on the night.

I will be there around midday'ish as some of the support look quite promising, just hope to god its not bucketing down

There's only 4 other acts on before them on the main stage and the show starts at 1:45 so there's no reason why they can't get on between 7 and half 7. Other than Ray Davies the others are relatively unknown and won't have that much material. The curfew may be strict but Bruce broke it 2 years ago and played a 3 hour 15 minute set and Jon hasn't been afraid to do that in his youth. Different now probably but possible nonetheless.

HRC have said a couple of times on Facebook that they're playing for around 3 hours and have said last night they're expecting them on just after 7.
