The festival, which featured Foals and Gorillaz, asked all ticket-holders aged 11 and over to demonstrate their Covid-19 status through the NHS Covid app before entering. Face masks were not compulsory but were encouraged.
People who camped at the festival had to take a second NHS lateral flow test during the event and log their results in the app.
Cornwall council’s public health team is urging all residents and visitors to make testing a priority.
What exactly were the requirements for entering? I’m not familiar with how this app works. Did they require a negative test, proof of vaccine, etc? The article is pretty vague.

Just home from Greenman…. we’ll see how this all pans out
