			Although the concrete-laden location was meant to be a one-off, from 2006 the event moved back there permanently as the university dedided it wanted a tighter grip on the licensing of the event (and their ability to make money out of it). Subsequent attempts to move it back to the traditional home of Vanbrugh Bowl have failed and, as there are now very few current students who remember it taking place there, it is likely these Woodstock will remain on the Paradise for the forseeable future.
