I have seen them Thursday's too. Usual, at your own risk. They can be pretty hot in due to the volume of teens that attend. Re entry with alcohol...I have seen enforced before, but likewise I have been fine before. Really depends on the day and time.

There is a map I overlayed onto Google here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1CgHzXsAJ1NbjTarFRA7hiq4ZEPCLGfk&usp=sharing Depending where you camp/park. But about 10 minutes tops. Booze on re-entry I have seen enforced a few times. But there may be some leniency on day 1, gamble at your peril. There is a supermarket on site, but it's not going to be as big as you get at Reading/Glasto. I imagine there will be some crates, but probably not masses. The arena is the only place for bars usually. But once the Arena opens on the Thursday it barely closes. - It's open until 2:30/3am. Then re opens 10am the next day. No real need to buy any in the campsite to be honest. Yes there are food places in the campsites.

Also anyone who is intereste, Google maps overlay of the map. Not fully detailed yet but shows campsites etc. https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1CgHzXsAJ1NbjTarFRA7hiq4ZEPCLGfk&usp=sharing

I do hope they haven't kept the same capacity as the "Newer site". 2017 on "Old site", which is the site we are on this year, was far too busy as the upped the capacity and it created a few issues. Although that could have been down to the weather too to be honest. The main footpath of the site (to and from arena) is down Mouldridge lane which is relatively solid ground, so all being well if the weather hits, at least that will be some saving grace! 😄
