Hello everyone :P

We went to V in 2008 and didnt get there on the Friday until late afternoon/early evening.

By this time the red campsite was absolutly packed and we had to camp miles from everything :P

This year I wanted to get in the best part of the red campsite (where the shops and carling bar is etc)

So does anyone know what the best time is to arrive so this can happen ?????????

It says the campsite opens at 12 but would there be a big queue to get in already at that time ?

If anyone could help and let me know what time u got there and how packed it was that would be great

Thanks :P
