Does anyone know roughly how many people attend each year? Or how many were there last year for the meet?

People come and go at different times so it can vary. I got delayed (read: pished) on the way over last year after getting on site so quite a few had left when I got there. But a lot will stay around for ages.

This is from 2019 but scroll through from this page on and you'll see some photos of what it was like.

Lots of fun btw. I finally made it in 2017 and haven't looked back. It's genuinely lovely to meet and catch up with people

That's not a fair test, I haven't seen him for over a decade and I was far more drunk than everyone in that picture (I was probably struggling to remain upright)

My greatest fear is that I'll be so excited about Glasto/the Meet, I'll be likely a bit worse for wear myself 😆 Thanks for the thread post though, looks like you had a great time that year! Lots of smiley happy faces.

Until a few days ago it definitely was my last the wife is showing signs of wanting more than this one,which is swinging me round to thinking of more myself. My son is missing this one so is flying off abroad so he can forget its on.thats not really an option for me so it might be better to be there next year. Might try to be wild for my last. Not sure how I'd cope with that.
