awesome, yeh everyone i have spoken to have said it's the best festival they have been to. I went to Leeds this year, that was ace. But i want to try Glasto, with it being the anniversary hopefully we are in for something special

I can imagine that Glastonbury is always special. I don't speak with much experience as I only went for the first time this year but man is it a big, strange, wonderful place. You'll have the time of your life.

Oh, and welcome to Glasto-bating-central. Get stuck in.

A tip: Don't treat it like a normal music festival.

Try to have the most unique experience possible. When its mid afternoon, try and go to the greenfields or do something you'd never think of doing. The chance is that you'll be really surprised. Visit the stone circle at least once to see the sunrise. Play in the mud if it rains as well! Just do everything you wouldnt normally do and you will still have an amazing time

Yeah I'm going for the first time as well so will throw out my questions here.

How long does it take to drive from Swansea to Glastonbury?

Is there some way where you don't have to go all the way around Brighton?

shuttle bus from the town to the festival - too packed to get on?

Boots vs. Wellies?

Answers greatly appreciated

You shouldn't go anywhere near Brighton when driving from Swansea, I think you mean Bristol.

Info on travel here: http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/info...ing-here/by-car

The carpark post codes are:

west carparks is BA6 8NE. east carparks is BA4 6TA, so you can google map routes.

I prefer boots to wellies, they can be waterproofed, you can use gaiters if it is very wet, they are much more comfortable and supportive.

Welcome on board mate

You'll find everyone on here is argumentative as anything, but when at Glastonbury itself it's (generally) all smiles and happy faces from everyone. Don't worry a bout planning it that much, don't worry about the weather or where to camp, you'll love it!

Was my first Glastonbury this year , I had done alot of the other big festivals before ! But Glastonbury will actually blow your mind ! I think the 5 days were the best 5 days of my life apart from my sons birth!!! Heaven on earth and surrounded by like minded people , bring it on I can't wait
