Worthy View to Festival Bus Station

[StLewi]

Due to work reasons, my girlfriend can't get down until Thursday and will be travelling with some mate who are staying at Worthy View. How can she get into the festival from there? The official site says:

Shuttle between Festival Bus Station and Worthy View. This is a free service for guests staying at Worthy View. The service operates from Wednesday to Monday.

Does this shuttle run from Worthy View to the Bus Station? Or is it just one way? She's not a Worthy View resident, does this matter?

Cheers

I don't think she can get into the main site through Worthy View. But I don't see why she couldn't jump on the bus to the Festival Bus station

it's not one-way, although she may be the only person joining the driver going that way on Thursday.

al_coholic is right, she won't be able to get in Via Worthy view - they have different EPO wristbands so she will have to go back down to the bus station

for complete peace of mind you could email worthy view to ask - worthyview@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk

Thanks all, I'll drop them a line.

Apparently it's not possible. They've replied with this:

You won’t be able to use the Worthy View shuttle if you do not have a Worthy View booking. We recommend making use of the drop and collect facilities

Anyone know what the best option would be? Are there drop off points on the way to WV?

Cheers!

There is only one drop and collect at the Bath and West Showground, here is a link from the Festival website. It's on the East side of the festival. The only other alternative is if there is a spare place in the tent booked at Worthy View, (if for example they have booked a 4 berth tent and there are only 3 of them) they could add your girlfriends name to their booking so she would then get a wristband allowing her to use the coach or walk in via the festival.   https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/getting-here/2592-2/

I wonder why they don't allow non-WW residents to hop on the shuttle that's returning back to the coach station.

To keep it exclusive at a guess.

In the real world, they probably will. Policies do sometimes need to be overlooked in the name of common sense or just to resolve a problem.
