Got all 6 of our deposits, which was brutal.

Then promptly booked Tangerine Fields. I haven’t stayed there before, but I can’t handle the stress of a Worthy View sale so locked it in.

I’m a Glasto virgin that secured tickets for my wife and I this morning. What is the deal with camping? Tangerine Fields is the best option? What’s the Worthy View sale?

So there is general camping … no need to book turn up find a space … the Glastonbury pre erected which will be worthy view or sticklinch which we will hear about a sale date fairly soon I’d imagine . Or various other independent camping options by local landowners of which tangerine fields is one … I think they said the sale is in a week or so @parsonjack will confirm

What is the location like at Tangerine Fields? Is it going to be massively inconvenient to come to and from our tent on a daily basis? Also do you know if it’s quiet at night?

Awaits reply from parson jack but he rates it and it’s not the worst for location but it’s such a massive site you will inevitably be a long way from things at certain times . Personally I think it’s probably a out for the day job similar to most preerected and even the Glastonbury own stuff

I have got excited and not managed to do anything else all day 🤪

Thanks to Crazyfool for answering this one. I’m in NZ and the sale was late so I feel asleep shortly after that comment.

You don’t need to pay extra for things like Tangerine Fields or Worthy View. On-site camping is great and included in your ticket cost.

I have chosen to pay extra for pre-erected camping as I don’t want to haul a tent across the world with me and I refuse to buy a cheap one and leave it behind. These options help me be a sustainable (and having a hot shower doesn’t hurt either!)

I’ve gone mad already. Ordered a tent that’s not falling to ribbons and is hopefully not gonna be an oven by 8am

 

Also ordered some trainers that, by June, will be scuffed up enough that I won’t mind putting them through the Worthy Farm wringer

Yeah but cheap end of the market. Not holding out too much hope!

Thanks for the feedback. I’ve taken the plunge and booked Tangerine Fields for my wife and I. Feel really good about the decision.

Will be right behind you! On the Aer Lingus one that gets in about 3pm! Is it June yet?

Getting tickets always feels like the biggest step towards going to Glastonbury. Feeling very fortunate to have passed that hurdle today!!

Indeed!

Booked up our campervan spot and paid deposit. Ok it’s a little outside the gate but no panicking trying to get a camper pass and it’s cheaper than the glasto ones.

Confirmed the hotels for the night before and the night after Glastonbury. Felt risky booking them in July but turned out okay. 

[Mark H]

Booked flights!! By getting onto it so early I could nab extra leg room seats on every leg of the journey from NZ and back. Hoping that means I arrive less destroyed..

Ah, lovely stuff. Road or rail for you this year? I'm weighing up which to handle.

[squirrelarmy]

Time off work is booked. Time to get creative. 

[theesundayroast]

Annual leave now booked! Looking to buy one of the inflatable fresh and black tents, probably a 4 man so that’s the next step
