Accuweather seems to be saying the rain has moved more to Monday/Tuesday and are generally quite good. Definitely thinking about waterproofs Same as every festival in the UK, pack for all four seasons. Waterproof jacket and sun block. You'll definitely need one. Or both. Sometimes at the same time 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacko45 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Forecast is pretty damned good, Sunday looks a wet one but the rest superb. After 18 months of crap, I wouldn't be too bothered if rained all weekend tbf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we will get them all today, but be prepared for disappointment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemons Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Went to a festival with a new tent and £10 wellies that both stood up to constant wind and rain. It was comedically terrible weather, getting stuck in the mud, nowhere really to sit and just laughed it off .Didn't know most of the bands, spent a lot of time by myself and still had a great time. Dry enough to sit down on a bin big if necessary will do me ! Had talked myself out of going to Latitude last week and now I can't wait. Have some work to do indoors this week so covid still a possibility but I've consoled myself that I can go to a small local thing in August if I have to isolate again and miss this. Couple of tests and hope for the best! With that "insurance policy" I'm allowing myself to pack and get excited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelin Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 With the LFTs for entry on Thursday. Does a negative test on the Wednesday get me in or does it have to be done on Thursday? I can't quite tell from the website but I'm leaning towards the latter...

Jacko45 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Just absolutely double checking... I'm fully vaccinated, have been for over 6 weeks now, it means I don't need to take any tests for entry is that correct?

Thanks in advance I'm in the same position but am a bit worried so will do a lateral flow on the Thursday before I leave just in case anyway. I think you should be fine with the pass from the NHS app though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your record on the NHS App, if you can see the 2nd dose registered and the date is fine then screenshot your QR pass and you’ll be good to go!

Thanks in advance Ticket holders from England If you are resident in England, you can show your status easily via the NHS COVID Pass on the NHS App. I know people who had symptomatic covid months after jabs so might be worth doing a test anyway but ultimately no, not necessary for entry.

I wouldn't trust a location-based forecast this far out (if at all), but taking having decent waterproofs and boots is always good advice! Regarding the weather, I'll probably end up doing a forecast in the next couple of days (I trained as a meteorologist), so will no doubt end up sharing here just in case anybody is interested in that. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adequate8 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Got my 2nd jab last week so won’t make the cut off for Thursday, but for those already double jabbed (4+ weeks ago), how soon did the QR pass appear in the app after the 2nd jab? just wondering for wilderness/green man tis all also, has anyone seen any lineup stuff direct from artist?

Pretty sure once we're in & getting set up all with feel as normal but know my partner is going to get a rough deal with my anxiety between now & then😅 I'm laughing about it because I can pinpoint it, acknowledge it & hopefully deal with it😊 Reading everyone else's questions & preparations is def helping me, thanks for all being as anal as me 😉 Right off to start on the campervan clean, stepping away from socials leaving all devices in the house & trying to keep calm.
