disappearwithoutatrace Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Hi everyone, we’ve decided to try Glastonbury this time in a campervan and have East Quiet campervan parking. How long does it normally take to get out of the campervan parking on the Monday morning after? From experience of the normal car parks, you can spend hours sat in a queue. Are we better off making a speedy exit late on Sunday night instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even that year I left at a civilised time Monday no loss of traction and on the road pretty well. Sometimes once on the road is when the queues start, depending where you're heading.

BlueDaze Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 I once did a Sunday night and whilst we were off site pretty quick it was a really tiring drive home.. (never again) Mostly, I have tried to be leaving by 7-7:30am and then you are likely on the A37 in 15-20 mins. Make sure you are organised enough on Sunday to have an easy pack up and go Monday morning Trying to leave around 9am would probably mean a couple of hours or more of queueing Enjoy!

Popsider75 Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 My tip is get up and get out early as possible..I think once its gone 8am your likely to queue for sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 depends what time you leave, I always try to go at 6am and drive straight out. if you leave much later can be big queues to exit - and a slow and frustrating drive back to Bristol.

pineweasel Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Leaving between 9 and 10am I’ve never waited more than an hour or so to get to the A37. The bigger issue, depending ion where you are heading, is heavy traffic elsewhere on the route home. The A303 gets particularly clogged up with London bound festival traffic.

You're better off having a cracking last night in the SE corner, watching the sun rise, having a lie in and leaving when the queues reduce.

nicksinc Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 I've always just left late Sunday night! By the time that comes round i've hit it hard for 4 days already and m happy to not drink and just drive home Sunday night. Has always worked really well and have never queued!

Ricci's Special Kebabs Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 If you go before 8:30 is normally pretty quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
