Going it alone...

[DecepticonStarscream]

So this will be my first festival, and at the moment it seems like il be going alone, so i was wondering, has anyone been to v alone before and if so, how was the whole experience? Also im quite young, 18, is it a good idea to go on my own? I want to, im majorly excited about this, id go into hibernation until august if i could , i cant wait, but yeah, some insight into the whole going solo thing would be incredibly helpful, thanks

[cherryade]

i need adopting lol, my first time going so me and my partner will def try camp with all you efesters!

its a bit daunting, but everyone here seems pretty nice looking forward to the whole experience!!

i dont think you can cancel your tickets (but im not 100% certain) the best thing to do would be to sell it on? If you go onto the main forum menu there is a special bit for selling tickets at the bottom.

E fest camp is amazing its in orange campsite and shoptilldrop will post something up about it june/july time so if you lookout for her post she will explain it a bit more and if you fancy it you just put your name down

You won't be able to cancel it unfortunately. I'd recommend selling it on ebay or scarletmist (if you are feeling ethical).

The Camp is pretty damn good and is the reason why I got an early bird ticket for V back in August. It's generally organised on here (through exchanging emails, Facebook and mobile numbers by private message etc).

Last year some of the core members arrived early on the Thursday and got a great spot in the orange camp, it was easier though as there were less people due to early entry. I arrived in the afternoon and just as I got off the shuttle bus one of the wheels broke on my sack truck. It was a nightmare dragging it along but one of the camp came to meet me and helped me out. The next day I passed on the favour when the same thing happened to someone else.

Though there were a couple in the camp that I didn't interact too much with, I made a lot of great friends there and I'm sure the others feel the same. The Friday night has an indie disco, we all went to that together and had a great laugh on the funfair. Many of us buddied up to see a load of the bands too.

If your tickets are for yellow then you must be going to Chelmsford not Staffs? You dont get allocated campsites at staffs

[Squall Moogle]

Aww, that sucks, as Tinkerbell says you're going to Chelmsford it seems. That's a shame as it's not as good there, no indie disco and no funfair. But there is a chance you could be on tv and you have slightly more chance of sunshine weather.

really? im defo going to staffs, there weren't any chelmsford tickets on big green coach, but at the bottom of the page, where i booked my tickets, it said something about a yellow campsite, im guessing that its a mistake on big green coaches part...?

[Squall Moogle]

I would say it's almost certainly an error due to cutting corners. There is a yellow camp at Staffs but there is no restrictions on where you can camp.

But, yeah you'd better check.
