I’m just really looking forward to having some time away with a couple of mates, away from work and the stress associated with it. The planning and the journey there, setting up the tents and opening a beer or something similar. I’ve not been in 15 years…. I had ticket 10 years ago but had to resale them (long story…) so this year for me is about exorcising some demons associated with 10 years ago. My mates have never been so I can’t wait for them to immerse themselves in the Glastonbury spirit. It's been a very long time….

Have never done the fest before, but if it's like any others I'm most excited for that early to mid-afternoon time when I can just wander around fields with a pint catching one or two songs by artists I've vaguely heard of before moving on to the next one, soaking up the atmosphere and checking my phone to make sure I'm not missing one of my faves halfway across the grounds. Lovely!

First time for 5 out of our group of 6. All great buddies, so will be absolutely brilliant to go to Glastonbury and experience it with them. What I'm looking forward to most is not pinting in Belfast Airport, not pinting on the plane, not pinting at Bristol Airport, not pinting on the journey down, then pinting onsite as I walk around, all 6 or solo as much of the site as is physically possible on the Wed / Thurs. 

I'm NOT arriving home on Monday night to the wife saying "tell me all about it"...." well pet, I mind singing along to Rocket man and drinking cider at the Cider Bus", with the wiff of White Russians thick on the breath

I'm looking forward to being with my girlfriend when she sees Elton for the first time. He's her favourite musician ever, she grew up singing his music in the car and it's going to be special.

I'm also looking forward to a few of the rumoured DJs and electronic acts late night. And discovering something new.

You, Reg, Axl and the lads all enjoying Lost Horizons? Fun times. 

The sauna chanting will be one for the ages.

Let's give the newbies some of the best bits to look forward to! 

I can't wait to get my little old caravan set up on the Tuesday, then wander over to sit at the top of the hill of death in CV East to watch the sunset over the big tops. (Because the sun WILL be out) 😊 Majestic, pure joy

 

Thank you for starting a thread about such a nice subject, good to have something positive to focus on in the dark times 😊

1. It's not like any others
2. You will be missing *several* of your faves
3. 'halfway across the grounds' is frickin MILES!

You're gonna LOVE it!

Thursday. Always love the Thursday. No major stages open, just free to bimble about in and out of bars, round the Greenfields, seeing how giddy everyone is. You can feel the happiness at being back and the anticipation. Such a positive vibe.

I always look forward to the most being able to walk around the site on the Tuesday with my Wife and one of our best friends.

It’s been a tradition because on the Tuesday of the festival in 2014 he lost his ex, who he was still very close to, to a heart attack. We always have a toast at the sign and aim to be the first paying members to buy a drink at the Avalon Inn.

First day: First meal at one of my fav traders. Then really looking forward to a Lekkido Thursday set. (when is that self-confirm coming?). Then discovering many new favourite live acts.

Yes to Lekkido!! 🤣🤣 found him in the rabbit hole by accident last year...got in there for Rob da banks purple rave and we were like...why is everyone singing the same song over and over again haha 

I'll be there again though for sure! Insane glasto moment. I bought a lobsterlicious birthday video message from him for my friend for her birthday in December. Legend 🤣 🦞 🦞🦞🦞
