In 2018, American music publication Pitchfork found that women only make up 19% of the average music festival lineup.

In 2020, the PRS foundation formed Keychange - an initiative with the aim to achieve a 50/50 gender split in the music industry by 2022.

However, is this what the fans want? and is a 50/50 split realistic? 

I researched and gained opinions from members of the Huddersfield music scene to find out if there should be a 50/50 gender split in festival line-ups.
