Alone to Glastonbury Festival 2011

[AnniAnni]

Hi,

I always wanted to go to glastonbury, and now that I finally have a ticket, none of my friends could be bothered to make an account or to pay 200quid for the festival..:/ So basically I'm going alone now (female teenager). I think it's probably the worst thing to be to travel alone as a femal and a teenager..so wanted to ask if anyone else (female) is going alone? (I'm from Kent) would be lovely to join a group as I am quite scared to go alone )

hi im also going alone and also looking at meeting ppl up there seems to be lots of kind ppl on here who offer you to join there groups

[Bisque]

WIll there be an efest campsite?

I'm female and travelled alone to the festival before now to meet up with family there. The thing is you are never alone cos throughout my journey (three different trains then the shuttle bus) there were people travelling to the festival too!!

As long as you are ok with train times and confident not to get confused over platforms etc ( that is if you are going by train) you'll be fine!

I may not be female, but first time I went I was 17 and on my own, and I had an ace time with no troubles. This was long before the days of the superfence too, when the festival was a little more 'wild'.

I did the Phoenix Festival by myself the year before too when I was only 16, and that was fine as well.

Go! You can meet people and have fun, or stay by yourself and have fun too, both are equally doable.

Just to say im going on my own 1st festival and i can wait i reckon im going to have hell of a time as i have not got anyong going i want to go and see this band and you got to go and see them you are free to go where ever you want

I too shall be flying solo in all probability, went last year with a group of about 10 and the most fun i had were the times when i wandered off for a few hours by myself, so i'm not at all worried, granted, i'm no teenager but i'm really looking forward to it, ppl are so nice and friendly that if you're in any trouble or need anything you can usually find someone to help out! dont worry, go, enjoy, live and be free... you will hugely regret it if you dont!

As you can probably see I am no teenager but you will be fine. As others have said everybody there is friendly, or thats what I have found. I am 61 and met some teenagers last year and had a lovely chat for a few hours about music and stuff and then went our separate ways. You'll be fine.

hey i was a solo raver last year and tbh it was great, i could do what i want when i wanted, no one to bother me... I went to a couple of meets and you bump into people you recognise all over the place, so go for it and you'll have a cracking time

[glastoslj]

Just found out my mate's thinking about not going. I'm a bit nervous about going on my own. Not sure what to do?!?!?!

[Madyokel]

Go for it!!

If your mate drops out it's their loss. Don't let it be yours as well.

[grumpyhack]

You may go alone but you'll leave having made all sorts of new mates. Don't worry. Enjoy. Glasto is the friendliest festival you'll find.

[Stu H]

I was part of a fairly large group last year, but there were loads of times they didn't want to see what I wanted to see, so I buggered off to check something out.

Always got chatting to people, it's a great atmosphere.

Agree with grumpyhack - friendliest festival around - you'll have a ball.

[Totse]

I'm in the same situation, I was the only person out of my friends to get a ticket so I'm going to pay off my deposit in April and hope some friends will get tickets on the re-sale but if not I'll be going solo.

So if anyone wants a drink, meet up or something drop me a line Coming from Suffolk!!

[Welsh.bluebird]

Like my brother told me and a guy from work they reckon its better on your own as you have not got your mate on ur shoulder going can we go here

you can do what ever you want to do ?? (in reason

[gillmacca]

Same boat here. There were suppose to be 4 of us going, but due to finances, I am the only one going now. Went last year for the first time with a friend, but I am looking forward to just going where I want to go. The only time it might get boring is in the early hours when people are still partying, but I hope I might be able to camp with some other single people or with the efest guys. I'm sure they will stop it getting boring

I'm female and also going alone, flying solo from more than 10 000km away to my first Glasto and honestly scared shit about winging it.....but if the forums are anything to go by, I think I'll survive!

Im 19 and going alone this year aswell. Really annoying that none of my friends have bothered but, I was determined to go again, and after the fun Ive had in previous years, Im sure itll be just as fun
