Hello,

I have been to Glastonbury for the last 3 years and usually set off from Bristol on the Wednesday morning. Last year we travelled from Leeds the evening before but then faced a 10hour delay getting from Bristol to Glastonbury on the morning of the festival (which I have never experienced before), in fact our friends who travelled from Leeds on the day got there quicker. In past years it has only taken 2 hours max to get from Bristol…..what is likely to be the case this year and what caused these delays last year? I cannot decide on the best plan of action for travel!

Last year we went down the motorway from Bristol got down the m-way in about half hour then massive cues.

Friends went the Shepton Mallet route and they got there about 20 minutes before us after leaing pretty much the same times

Check out the poll in my signature - will give you an idea of when everyone is arriving.

I was going to wake in middle of night and drive to arrive early, but think will set off at 12midnight and sleep when we get there. Really want to arrive early to get a good chance to grab the camping space we want, but if you aren't so fussy then any time could be good. Take a decent atlas that shows the back roads - and best of luck, no fun being trapped in a car!

    • I agree the prices are tough for locals. You can see if Porto timetable is the type that works for you and it's a terrific city. Also cheaper. https://www.primaverasound.com/es/porto/lineup-porto
    • thanks XXialac! i guess for us the most important aspect will be a festival that starts very late in the day, specially in these southern countries were it can be really hot! The combination of visiting a new city, having good lunches and enjoying a festival is a absolute must for us. Also, we like headliners but the undercard is just as important; truly enjoyed Men I trust, NewDad, Big Thief this year so from that angle it is not really a big thing if a festival is somewhat smaller.    Apparently my bad, i had 5 in my system but 0.5 (10%) increase is still huge. I am not sure how teenagers can afford these prices............
    • That second part was how I felt about Rock IM Park this year trying first. I found that when it gets to like the 3rd act on the main stage down, you've gotta make a choice to miss anything leading up might not enjoy and it's sometimes while closer for not a great view as everyone in turn has to make the call too. Being short doesn't help as I'd just be able be further bacm but still see.
    • I wasn’t slagging Scooter off, they are undeniably silly. As I said, they are the definition of a meme booking for Download. People requested them for years because it was silly.
