Camping on the Tuesday night?

[Jack.194]

First time Glasto-goers, really want to get a good spot and we're travelling from Birmingham so its a 2/3 hour drive.

Does anyone camp in the queue/in their cars on the Tuesday night or is this not possible?

Lots of people arrive on Tuesday night and either try to sleep in cars, join queue ( weather dependent) or party near and around their car.

We arrive about 10pm every on the Tuesday, we take the tents, chairs, bag and enough beers for the night.

Normally we sit and sleep in the chairs and then around 6am the queue begins to move, every year this is a false alarm! Once you are in you can set up camp at your desired location.

Do not try and carry everything in on the first run, you will get tired, drop things and end up falling down the queue line, take the essentials in and then do another run later on that day or wait to the Thursday or Friday as it is much quicker.
