I'm vaguely interested in how many times I've been to Glastonbury but can't remember when I first went. It was very much pre-super fence but just can't nail it. Going to have to throw my hat in the ring and say that in my opinion it was indeed better in the old days. However, that's because I was quite happy with 100,000 people getting in by nefarious means. The wierdos and drongos that jumped the fence added an element to it that will never be seen again. I can understand the reason why that is though.

11 and counting.

1995 was my first. Missed '98, '99 and '02 due to work commitments but been to every one since.

Jumped the fence the first couple of times as that was the thing to do back then. Radio 1 announced 'free festival', which was all the encouragement I needed.

Going for the first time. I am terrified that the people at the gates will say "that's not you", when looking at the picture on my ticket.

Another fear is that I will not find a good camping spot.

Actually looking forward to and enjoying the event will happen after those things are taken care of ^^

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
