Every festival knows it happens and that punters get more & more ingenious ways of getting drink in.

If it was free rein, it would be a different kettle of fish.

The best way is to just to go in the arena at the back of a group of drunken young lads as they are far too busy frisking them to bother about a mum and her suspiciously ginormous handbag

Poundland now selling those plastic pouch bags that are like a hot water bottle on a rope. Would imagine they are quite easy to conceal.

Not sure how much they are.

Nice one sir. Keep me posted.

I`m thinking I`d maybe get 2. One for under each arm. Wouldn`t want to spend more than a couple of quid though.

no one is going to be frisking my bra and i can get a hip flask in each cup

Nice one. Never thought about that...............

Just read on the Glastonbury forum on here that the plastic lid things you get in Subway ( they have loads sitting next to the drinks machine ) fit perfectly over the plastic pint tumblers you get at the fests. Handy to take a few with you and save your drink spilling or evaporating in the heat.

Ok, I've got a friend who is going to a festival very similar to Kendal Calling and he wonders what the security is like at Kendal Calling for smuggling other things into the festival. He's thinking, do they have sniffer dogs at the entrances or over keen stewards? He's not considering taking anything hardcore, just something Snoop Dogg would appreciate. Thanks, from my friend.

This was brought up last year!  Yes there is dogs , yes security are firm ! the guy took my advice and did what i told him to do. its difficult use your brain .

[t2t]

Only bit of advice would be not to discuss anything on a public forum which is looked at daily by the festival organisers....

Thanks. Very helpful.

Ahh so apologies on previous questions, can't take booze in "officially", note to self, read full forum before asking questions!

[Mr_Grump]

We know how easy it is to smuggle in wine (by removing the inner from a wine box & secreting it on your body) but beer/lager/cider is a bit more difficult.

 

However, there are a number of boxed ciders on the market that can be smuggled the same way. I know they are still and not to everyone's taste, but at just over £2 a litre it might be something to put people on and lessen the impact of the bars (you could even mix it with fizzy stuff they sell in cans in the arena).

 

Asda have a couple of products available...I'm sure other supermarkets have similar stuff.
