Hi, I've been a lurker/browser for a few years, finally got my act together and created an account.... Hoping to make it to the effects meet this year. 

Same here! Well, have been lurking for the last couple years anyway. This efests was a life-saver last year when we were planning for our first Glastonbury, so glad to have finally sorted myself out an actual account.

Dan from Los Angeles here. Been lurking on the boards for a couple of years ever since I started kicking around the idea of a Euro 2016/Glastonbury trip, and I'll be on a plane next Thursday.

I know Glastonbury will be way different than Coachella or Outside Lands, but I can't wait to see how different.

My first Glastonbury was the mudfest that was 1997, and i've been to every one since then.
After having well and truly done my time in the queues at 5am, pulling the trolley through mud and lugging other peoples tent's we have finally bought our first camper van!

I've been avidly reading all the campervan threads, and i'm excited all over again to be experiencing my favourite place on the planet from a whole new perspective! The vibe on Tuesday night in the CV fields sounds ace and it feels like i've gained an extra day at Glasto!

 

 

 

Are you me? :blink: This is exactly me.

I joined prior to my first Glastonbury in 2013 and was given loads of good advice. Almost didn't go as none of my friends managed to get tickets so it was just me and my son (who was 21 at the time). Loved it (of course) and went back in 2014. Didn't manage to get tickets last year so couldn't face looking at the forum.

 

This is year I'm planning on being there with my husband, my son and his girlfriend. Slight spanner in the works is that I was recently diagnosed with cervical cancer and need surgery, but I'm hoping that can be delayed until after Glastonbury. The consultant looked horrified when I suggested it, but admitted the delay wouldn't be detrimental to my health. People who don't go to Glastonbury just don't understand!

My consultant was the same when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. We'd been offered precious VIP tickets to Strictly Come Dancing by one of the judges so I asked the surgeon to delay the lumpectomy op for a few days.

Happily he agreed, we went to SCD and, afterwards, I was so high from the drugs after the op that I was dancing up and down the ward of women he'd already operated on that day, showing them how to do a fleckle!

Hi all, I'm Cheryl. Posted a question on here a few days ago so thought it might be nice to chat to some other forum users :) I've been to lots of festivals but this will be my third Glastonbury. The last time I went was in 2000 so I'm interested to see how it's changed in 16 years! I got tickets through the main sale and will be staying in the east campervan field.

Hi, just joined and created a dumb username. Anyways, Glastonbury... can't wait. I inadvertently am headed out alone this year. If there are any other solos please let me know as it would be good to get a group started. :

Welcome - there are loads of people going on their own who are all planning to camp together in the Darble field. See the Camp Solo thread to find out more so you can get in contact with the organiser. It sounds like a fun place.

Very long time lurker. Been to Glastonbury since 2003, but not his year.

Finally coming to terms with not going so just wanted to say have a great time to everyone that is.

Also wanted to say this forum feels like the online version of Worthy farm.

Enjoy, hope to see you next year

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
