Programme

[EighteenSixty7]

Never been before so I was wandering what's in the free programme you get?

[thesecretingredientiscrime]

It's good. Basically gives you a description of all the areas, maps, and the line-up.

[whateverman]

It's a very good comprehensive programme. It's one of the few bonuses I'm looking forward to as a punter this year (was previously crew - they don't get a free programme!).

[EighteenSixty7]

May sound like a daft question but what form does it come in? Is it like a football programme or something else?

Was more like A4 last time. A lot better than something you would pay £10/15 for at the likes of v/leeds. One of the many added bonus' of glastonbury.

Just checked the 2011 one - 84 pages including the covers.

I'd go as far as saying its excellent as far as gig programmes go. The previous answers are both correct. When you pass go you collect 1 x cotton bag which has a a4 full programme in it, plus you get a lanyard with a mini program to fit in it.. A day to day guide of main stages. You may get other freebies also handed to you on way in. Mostly sponsors stuff

[gorbag]

They usually dump it on you just as you stagger in the gate loaded up to the eyeballs and you end up with it clamped between your teeth. It's well worth having though

[EighteenSixty7]

Lovely stuff, thanks folks. Was worried about remembering where stuff was and at what time during the day, sounds spot on.

[glasto-worker]

Fairly sure it was priced at £12 on the cover, so don't lose your free one!

[tevaburger]

truly a great programme. i've managed to keep mine over the years, some of which are in quite a state due to the rain but nice to look through in later years and agonize over some of the choices you made and plan out your festie again if you had arrived on-site today with that lineup.

I love reading the descriptions of each band, which are always things like: "hypnotic proto-trance with a flavour of neo-alt-country"

[verrymerry]

It's very good, but yes you get it on the way in when you're not very hands free We picked up a stack on the way home & I sent them out to different efests people. I think somewhere I've still got one left from 2011 if anyone wants?

ooh thanks for that idea, adamski!

[badger80]

Never understood why they have to give you this stuff as you walk in carrying all your stuff. Especially if its wet its a nightmare.

They should give them out at the info points and just clip you ticket (like on a train). Then you can even get one on the last day if you wanted so it doesnt get trashed!

[adamski]

[Tony Briggs]

Got given mine in 2011...had a tent, rucksack and trolley wth several crates of beer in my hands, it had just started pi55ng it down, i'd been queueng for 5 hours......let just say wasnt desperate for MORE stuff to carry, but yeah it a great guide! i actually grabbed a couple more (for free) on way out to save

[pedmills]

We play a guessing game. Read the description and someone has to guess the band. Whiles away Wednesday nicely over a few Brothers!

[neil_d]

Can't remember what I did with mine during or after the festival last time. Will have to have a little hunt around to see if I managed to get it home...
