Festival Shuttle Bus on Wednesdau

[gherkin8r]

Hi all you wonderful people! I'm going to be queueing over night on the Tuesday night but my partner and 2 of my kids are staying in a B&B near Glastonbury town that night and we are wondering what is best way for them to get from there to Festival.

We have got the shuttle bus many times between Glastonbury town and the festival before but never during peak arrival times on a Wednesday. The website has shuttle buses running from 7am on wed this year. Anyone know if the shuttle bus is normally rammed at that time on a Wednesday morning? Any other suggestions for how they are best advised to travel welcome. Imagine taxis would be slow moving and expensive

I got the shuttle from Glastonbury town last festival and it was incredibly easy. I think it ended up being full when we left around 11am, but not rammed at all. I basically walked through the gates as there was a seperate queue for that shuttle.

I'm going to be doing an almost similar thing this year as it was too easy but I also have to collect my ticket from the box office so am worried I might lose all the benefits of the tiny shuttle line!

Did you stay in Glastonbury Town throughout the festival or just the night before? Wondering how it is to go back and forth every day.

Also can't figure out if taxis (if there's a long wait / queue / full shuttle bus) come up to Gate A or you have to get a shuttle bus to a taxi drop off/pick up anyway first:
