How do you go about cancelling by the way?

Go to Customer Service and enter the reference number of the ticket you want to cancel.  They'll email you a link to it. Follow the link and at the bottom there's a 'contact us' button where you can choose 'refund' from a drop down menu.  I requested a refund yesterday afternoon; haven't heard back yet but I don't know how long it usually takes

I requested a refund yesterday at about 4 - got a confirmation email this morning at half ten.  Funds returned "to the original source of payment" less the £25 admin fee.

Now that we have got the east CV pass, I have another potential blocker as the person who booked the pass will not be travelling down with me on the Tuesday but will be arriving on the Thursday.

 

Will I potentially face some pushback getting on as the name on the pass will be different to my admission ticket?

You will be fine, might be an idea to have a photo of their ticket in case they crack down next year. I have never had to show anything other than my campervan pass.

As long as its on display you should just get waved through, I've never seen one get examined before. They just want you in the correct side, and everyone is really happy on your arrival with big waves and smiles. 

 

LOVE the drive into the CV fields

Anyone know why East Quiet is closer to Gate C and the festival itself than East Regular? Would have thought it would be the other way around if you wanted to be in a quiet area. Also, what does quiet actually mean in this context? Are you having to creep around all day or is it just not a place for partying late into the night?

It was initially called East Family, due to it being closer to Gate C for little ones to have a shorter walk. Bizarrely it was renamed East Quiet. From my experience both Quiet and General are very quiet lately at night (apart from the noise drifting from the festival). People wanting to party do so within the festival, then stagger back up the hill to sleep. 🙂

Great, thanks, that's what I was hoping to hear. I was last in the Campervan filed in 2014 and it looks to have changed a bit since then. Panicking that we'd be creeping around like you're in a library. Don't get me wrong, any partying we'll be doing will be inside the festival itself but will inevitably continue to a lesser extent back at the van, and possibly beforehand as a warm up too. We'll of course be respectful to our neighbours but would rather not waste another £25 admin fee by cancelling this and going for East regular having just bagged an East Quiet and cancelled the B&W Showground.

You will be fine, not a lot has changed other than the fields have been renumbered and E22 has been lost to glamping.

 

There's a get together on the Hill on Tuesday night if you are planning on getting there pre festival. 🙂

Thanks. Yes the plan is to arrive Tuesday morning. We'll have been on the road all of June anyway so will be heading there as it opens up. Is this outside the festival gate C but inside the Campervan Field?

It's in E21, the closest field to Gate C. Spaces in there are reserved for staff, Eavis friends and family and people with Accessible needs. It's also where you will find the Hill of Death. Photos attached, of the campervan fields and the hill from the bottom.

East quiet is actually fairly noisy through the early hours as the prevailing winds send the sounds from the SE corner that way. I find it strangely comforting drifting off to sleep to the serenade of a  demonic fairground!

the mad thing i find is that i always wake up at exactly 6am when the curfew kicks in and the music stops, suddenly its quiet and you can hear birds tweeting away, lovely 🙂

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
