Can you keep a secret?

[Scrump]

Ok.. so not a glasto veteran (I'm working on it though!)but am I right in saying the festival is full of hidden gems and best kept secrets?

If I am right I'd love to hear about people's favourite hidden spots/stages/bars/food stalls.

BUT! There's nothing worse than ruining a secret so can you describe in a few lines what makes it magic without giving it away! If possible pictures would be amazing!

Wish I had my own to share to kick things off but don't.... Yet!

Yes 

[dentalplan]

Real nice secret organisation we had once...

Apparently last time people started talking about actually secret bars* on places like this they got shut down by the next festival.

I absolutely love this place. I once saw a Tibetan monks singing group perform here, for that alone I return to explore some more. Plus good tea & cakes.

I know of one place such as this so, yes, it happens.

One rail, lots of stops, fantastic transportation to a world of fantasy.

I think reading about something like this on the pub crawl thread a few days ago is what gave me the idea for the OP.  Certainly don't want to part of blowing the cover anything!

Complete freedom with the added bonus of a trampoline and tree swing.

Bobo's Bar. Nuff said.

The secret shed in copper dollar … I feel like I can reveal this …. As it no longer exists 

[dogeggs]

It’s a pity those places just shut down, rather than just moving to a new secret location. Always assumed that would be the done thing every year or two.

It’s high time that places like the piano bar found a new spot as a way of keeping themselves more illusive…nowadays it’s more a case of how many hours are you prepared to queue.

Underground piano bar, extra points for seeing Michael or jools there.

Do it! Even if without the rest of your group. You won't regret it!

oh i've been searching for this tent since we aimlessly wandered into it on the Thursday night 2019! we were already suitably wonky and then we enter to a full 10 minute didgeridoo solo, was a fantastic time

Anyone else find a secret/tiny off the map drink this year? I managed to find 1 and it sold only 2 options based from the same drink!

Yes absolutely love Small World, spent many a joyful late evening sat around their braziers listening to wonderful sounds. Such lovely people running the place too. And the amazing world-beat dj-ing of the Lizard tent not far away if feeling energetic!
