Skip997 Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 Where are these portaloos? I've hardly seen any, except accessible loos for a good while. Can't remember when I last used one at Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 There are lots outside the fence where people queue and for security to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect quite a few inside for disabled access too. Maybe in VIP areas too? EDIT: In fact I remember quite a few being in the late night areas too by certain smaller venues?

incident Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 Nearly all of the public facing toilets inside the fence are either Long/High Drops, owned and assembled by the Festival / Worthy Farm, or Compost Toilets. The two suppliers of Compost Toilets used are Natural Event and Compoost Solutions - there may be others but those are the ones I know of. There really isn't thousands of Portaloos anymore, and hasn't been for several years. The ones that do exist still are more utilised in lower volume situations. As CalGo mentioned this tends to be more outside the fence - at this point I think the only ones inside the fence are either the ones designed for accessible use or odd units in staff areas where it doesn't make sense to have a larger scale setup. Can't honestly say I've noticed which "brand" they use these days though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiaranMc Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) Anyone ever tried those ones with the two way mirror as doors? A serious exercise in conquering stage fright! Edited January 24, 2023 by CiaranMc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came across one somewhere round Williams Green- The Pyramid at one stage a few years ago. It was on its own so maybe it was a novelty. Had a fairly small queue (I’d say due to people not fancying it), and it was spotless. It’s really weird sitting on the throne and being able to see everything going on on the other side of the door.

I do have visions of maybe a slightly drunk you stepping out and saying "that is weird with the mirror " then someone replying "no mirror mate, you didn't shut the door" 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiaranMc Posted January 24, 2023 Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) As funny as all that is you get a good look at the mirror when you’re first in queue so you can be sure if its working as designed! the real fun would be if it were one of those fancy ones with the switch that can be turned transparent!
