Hollean Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 We've been lucky enough to get tickets for 2020. I'm considering camping at Worthy view for 2 of us a) Can anyone tell me when bookings will open. I've seen it'll be late October, but does anyone know the date ? If not, when do they announce the date ? b) Can anyone send me a link to the types of tent they offer ? When booking does open I'd like to already have clear idea of what I want to try to book. If they haven't yet published the 2020 options, can anyone send a link to the 2019 options Looking for something comfortable for 2 people Thanks in Advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotchilidog Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Links can be found on the Glastonbury website under info/accommodation. You’ll be after the two person scout tent which have plenty of room for two and have the added bonus of being closer to the festival entrance. Last week of October is the normal on sale date, normally midday on a Thursday IIRC. Glastonbury will probably send out an email to ticket holders to announce the sale in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive also found the podpad website and registered there so they should email me when their accommodation goes on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(think I got this image from this forum when I was researching, so thanks to whoever uploaded it!) Thanks for that. It'll probably be bit more this year but that gives good indication.Plus we need to add on an amount for car parking, which was £45 last year. Initially the podpads looked interesting and then I saw they were really low, only 1.6 m at the apex. Thats tiny ! I'm thinking I'll try for a 2 person BellePad when they go on sale. Theres a pole in the middle , but 3m diameter is a fair size.The alternative is going offsite at willow fields where I can put my own tent. It's bit further to walk but they say it's level , not up the infamous worthy hill ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vardyvarvar Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Bit of advice for any WV first timers... Don’t have your heart set on one option. Last year was tricky to get anything. Sold out in under an hour. We wanted tipis, podpads, octopads, yurts... ended up settling on a scout tent lol. Be prepared to settle once in if you want reasonably priced flushing toilets and showers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naomi1303 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Does anyone know whether tents booked at the same time will be next to each other? We're after 2 scout tents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprefan Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Surprised there is still no info on the WV sale and its almost nov. Maybe next week hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryanrebe Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Me too, I'm thinking they might be waiting for the ballot for the extra 50 tickets to be announced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vardyvarvar Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Here we go everyone: https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/accommodation/worthy-view-pre-erected-camping/ Thursday 21st November at 6pm (coach tickets) or 7pm (general sale). Bit late this year but not surprising with everything else going on. I hope for those going for WV that a sizeable amount are held back in general sale. It doesn’t seem fair to me that the extremely lucky people that got coach tickets and didn’t have to go through that general sale bum fight get all the WV tents too. Perhaps next year if you can prove you’re going on a National Express coach they’ll let you in early too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bit of minefield to be honest but I did my homework. If you have the money there are better options out there but I didn’t wanna pay 5* prices for a glorified waterproof sheet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the supplier's website: "6 person Octopads will be the standard version only and will NOT be supplied with electricity or bedding They include 4 single wooden beds with foam mattresses. The 5th and 6th guest will have foam mattresses only" https://podpads.com/glastonbury-worthy-view Edited November 3, 2019 by Bryanrebe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
