Getting so excited now and as it's my first festival I'm not really too sure on what to take. So far I'm taking:

Underwear

Toiletries

Joggers and hoody

Spare vest tops

2 bottles of water

Crate of beer

Tent

Sleeping bag

Does that sound about right?!

Only problem is cos I'm such a weakling I cannot carry it all!!! So was thinking of taking a suitcase. Is that a wise idea? Have you see anyone else with a suitcase?! Lol thankyou :)

Best bet is to invest in a cheap trolley type thing. My wife's just bought one for V Fest this weekend.

Buy a cheap one and then dump it if it gets broken:

or buy a decent one if you think you'll use it several times:

Yer seems about right. Defo try and pack as light as you can, I learnt from last year! Being dumb I packed so much stuff I could have done without so this year its bare minimum!!! Just make sure you have plenty of layers.

You can use the Festibarrow service, its like a wheelbarrow, not sure how much it is, it comes free with Hospitality. But we would have never got to the campsite last year without it.

Loads of ppl had wheelie cases last year, altho remember if it rains its gann be pretty hard to drag it through the grass/mud.

Yep I agree with megman I took a wheelie case last year and even though it was not raining at the time it was a right task the wheels just get clogged up with grass and mud and it gets harder and harder to drag up them hills go with delboy71 idear or get a festibarrow think they are £10 to rent may be wrong you can prebook them so its ready for you when ye get there hope this helps.

sounds about right, just take essentials... tent, sleeping bag, ticket, money, clothes, baby wipes, deodorant, water, glasses.

you're in runcorn though, chances are you'll find aload of asda trollies at the side of the road to help you carry it in.

I bought a trolley thing this year as we had alot of stuff to carry last year mainly beer.lol. Its going to be a really good buy and only cost £25 on amazon, I loaded it up other night to test it out and can get everything on it, a little tip if you do buy a trolley get some of them elastic spring tie things to hold everything on ya trolley.lol. just when ya going over the bumpy ground something is bound to fall off!! :D

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
