Seems like time to start ramping up the hope again in anticipation of the next ticket sale.  Been reading this forum for 14 years now since my first glasto in 2008 - back when losing out on the ticket rush wasn't a thing and everyone who wanted to go got a ticket. I have tried for tickets every year since and have manage 3 more glastos but more disappointments than celebrations.  Glastonbury is a big part of my year though whether i get to go or not and it's bitter sweet reading the happy postings here of the lucky people who have been successful on years that i have missed.  2008 was just as a couple and the other 3 have been with kids as they have got bigger. I genuinely consider glastonbury as part of who we are as a family.  Missed out this year which was hard but like i say its time to allow myself to be hopeful again.  Hope to be able to contribute here from our previous experiences. .

Posted years ago but fell by the wayside when my ticket buying ability went to hell ... but this year we're back and I am off the scale excited!!! Was on stage in a musical the other night and forgot my lines as I suddenly remembered I'd got tickets!!

First time going to Glastonbury.  Group of 4 Canadians going together, none of us have been before.  Beyond excited to go!

Went in 2019 with my Canadian friend and there was a brilliant group with a flag living their best lives around the site! We're back next year and will find them/you!

Did 800 metres today. Hoping to be able to walk to the pub in January. Should be walking by glasto, not very much, will do glasto on wheels again.

    • Absolutely second this. Were great at Big Weekend and already have a great catalogue of songs forming so far. Would love to see them on the farm!
    • A mixed first day for us. First of all, we were honestly quite shocked that there was no security check at all at the VIP entrance around 7:30 PM. No bag check, nothing. I’ve attended Primavera many times over the years and this felt surprisingly lax for an event of this size. Did anyone else experience the same?   Another disappointment was the communication regarding the weather situation. Primavera has some of the best sound systems and speaker setups in the festival world, yet somehow they were not able to make a single clear announcement explaining what was happening. Instead, people were expected to read tiny messages on screens in Mordor while thousands were left wondering what was going on. A simple and direct audio announcement would have gone a long way.   On a lighter note, this guy absolutely made my day. Sitting right in front of the Estrella Damm terrace, wearing nothing but a long-sleeve shirt, jeans and a pair of Converse All Stars, he remained completely unbothered by the rain. While everyone else was looking for shelter, he sat there wearing sunglasses, calmly watching the crowd as if he was watching a movie.   Absolute main character energy!
    • I think my party got pretty lucky last night, at least compared to some of the horror stories over on Reddit. I was very impressed with Father John Misty in particular.   Perhaps my view would be different if I were a big Massive Attack fan or whatever, but right now my feeling is that if it's not safe for the shows to go ahead... then it's not safe for the shows to go ahead. I'd much rather they were cautious than roll the dice when it comes to something like that.    Here's hoping everyone has a better day today. 
    • It was awful during Father John Misty and I was close to the front. People just shouting and laughing their f-ing heads off about nothing in particular and being louder than the bloody stage.
    • Other things I noted yesterday, away from the obvious…   Positives: - an extra water point towards the back left of the main stages has appeared, which I believe is new for this year (and was much needed) - handing out free ponchos was a good touch  - caroline were fantastic. I’d never been in the Auditori Rockdelux before, it’s a wonderful venue and a great venue if you fancy a more chilled out environment  Negatives: - the talkers. I know it’s always bad here (and most festivals nowadays) but f**k me people wouldn’t shut up yesterday. I wonder if it was partly as a result of people being at artists they had little interest in (due to rain limiting their options), although it wasn’t great during blood orange. We’ll be making an effort to get a spot nearer the front for anyone we particularly care about over the weekend  - not enough staff around (and the ones that are there are largely useless). Most other festivals have them everywhere and are happy to help
