I drove last year and never again! From the horrendous experience I had getting out of London to the massive queues to trying to drive across what was basically a lake of mud to get out (in a Yaris... it was no joke). Bus all the way for me from now on!

No need to take a car whatsoever. Me and my mate used local bus services last year, planned the route carefully then got a taxi driver from Glastonbury town to take the back roads and drop us off only a short walk from the entrance. Beat our friends in cars and coaches by a good 4-6 hours respectively and made a few new friends on the way. It's also quite easy to hitch-hike, especially once the festival's over, although it's noticeably more difficult than it used to be, but then the festival is starting to attract a different sort of crowd than back in the olden days (sad but true, I seem to remember people taking their tents home once upon a time). Took about an hour to thumb a lift last year, those in the car had been trying to get out for about 3 hours.

Last year as I got a ticket quite late on and coming from Glasgow I flew down to bristol as it was less expensive than train or coach then got the bus to the festival... this eyar with ticket already paid off and knowing more people travelling down it will probably be train the whole way.

    • There is possibly a weak link in the ticket buying system, no matter how clever the technical controls get. I just spent 20 minutes this morning hammering the ‘Buy Tickets’ button while the web page kept telling me there weren’t enough tickets remaining to meet my request. Eventually it changed its mind and let me buy two tickets. Most likely because of failed payments in the queue ahead of me. So - just like it did in the good old F5 days - pig-headed blind persistence can sometimes pay off.   BTW, the tickets were for the Whispering Bob Harris evening in the Albert Hall on 2nd December.
    • All I'm asking for is Rancid 
    • MGK would probably end my interest in this festival completely. 
    • The basement, deafheaven, Mannequin pussy clash is v annoying. Also not sure why pinkpantheress is in the tent, surely going to be ramos. 
    • It's just this:   Search up which orgs are currently in Tufton St, funded by Koch Brothers, Robert Mercer, and Matthew Elliot.   It's moved on from "Vote Leave" and "Leave Means Leave" into the lobbyists against net zero. It's the same funding from the same people in the same place lobbying our media and politicians.
