Pedestrian Gate A Queue Times

[barkley87]

I'm going to be arriving by coach earlier then usual this year, at 8:45am (depending on traffic) rather than my normal 12pm-1pm. Does anyone know what the queues will be like at pedestrian gate A then? Also, we want to camp in the Dairy Ground, but will have a 3 man tent, a 1 man tent and a 8 man tent with us. Will there still be space for us at Dairy Ground by the time we get there? In previous years people arriving by car have put up our tents for us before we've arrived and it's been fine, but we don't have that option this year.

Or 6.... Like it was last year for me

It's a lottery mate, just don't sweat it, you'll get in, you'll set up, you might end up in Dairy, you might not, but it'll all be forgotten within half an hour of being at the biggest best party on the planet

I'm arriving on the Wednesday. I'm always super organised about everything, so unknowns like this are driving me into a mini panic (even though it'll be my 5th Glastonbury...). I know it'll be fine once I'm there though. I'll just try and stay calm for the next two weeks!

Nope, came by car, got put in the furthest car park, felt like it was nr Bristol, headed for gate D as per usual, then some steward told us the queue was shorter at A... So off we went. Our friends parked up in the same field about 10 mins behind us were on site 3 hours longer than us!!

BUT it's totally the luck of the draw - some years I've parked virtually outside Gate D, with no queue!! Just don't fret on it, what will be will be, and there's sod all planning you can do to get round it. Arrive safely, in one piece and then enjoy the festival

Wow erm probably about 9am?? Not sure could have been an hour or two either way. The only way you're going to have no queues is if you arrive on Thursday evening I reckon.
