Secret part to Rabbit Hole

[godders1966]

Has anyone been in the secret (underground?) section of the Rabbit Hole?

How do you get in? Where is the entrance? Do you need some special code or invite?

Any info would be appreciated.

Cheers

We were up in The Park last year watching The XX, decided to wander up to The Rabbit Hole and just crawled straight through the tunnel, no riddle or anything. In the past I have seen people queuing up being asked questions before they're allowed in though.

You crawl through the tunnel into a room with a bar and a dancefloor, and big toadstools to sit on. Then you have to crawl through another tunnel to get out, which brings you into a mini cinema which was showing The Wombles when we were in it.

Only at Glastonbury...

we went last year - and could only get in if we took a carrot. which we did!

Trick is to time it right, so you can actually get in. As you can imagine, later on there are queues.

I'm intrigued by this underground bar by the dragon though. But what's the dragon? And what field would I find it in?

I remember these two guys got bored of waiting in the queue and decided to just crawl under the tent floor instead. Now, if you've crawled through the tunnel to the Rabbit Hole you'll know that's its quite far away and winds around quite a lot. I wonder if they ever got out...

[caroldecker]

hmmmm... i wouldn't know about that.

[fatyeti24]

I won't tell! Honest!

[caroldecker]

then don't go looking around the far south east of the site, right up in the corner. oh no!

And there was I thinking - everyone knows this, is it really worth posting.

The Dragon is a concrete (presumably) dragon by the small stream next the Dragon field - I presume that's why it is so named. To the left of the stone circle as you look up the hill. A little higher up there is a an area that looks fenced off, and it has a Chinese lanterns (it did last year anyway)You wander in thinking, should I really be here, and there's a door and you poke your head in and its full of people. Prior to the Park area, this underground venue was known by some as the Rabbit hole and searched for by people that should know better (like me) for quite a few obsessive years. I don't think it was always in this place but has been for the last couple of years. I would post the youtube link of them making it, but that would take the last little bit of surprise away.

See you there

[fatyeti24]

Now you describe the dragon, a hazy memory comes back to me. I think I could definitely have a stab at finding this place

Although all this talk of secret places is making the waiting unbearable! 7 weeks is so long..... But in 7 weeks you can be sure to see me there, Ill be the ginger hiding under a big hat

[caroldecker]

will you be giving us a rendition of 'China In Your Hand' too?

[rexclark]

I'll definately be going to The Rabbit Hole this year, I've heard so many good stories about it.

[cejx]

Is this correct or is it another of the 'hilarious' mono-rail type jokes?

[fatyeti24]

Ill be the ginger under the big hat singing China In Your Hand

[caroldecker]

Anyway, carrots. Tis true. we got them from a juice stall, jumped the queue and went straight in. We did however have insider info from a worker there who we'd met on the wednesday!

It was rammed, sweaty and a massive anti-climax!
