Onsite coop??

[Dizzy2012]

Probably because I’m never actively looking, but where is the coop stall / shop?

reading through another post and a lot of the weight I carry onsite are little cans of Fanta, coke and lemonade for kids and as mixers…

are these available at the shop and does anyone know what kind of price they charge? Do they sell out quick?

It’s in Park Home Ground campsite. Bit more expensive than usual but I suppose that’s a judgement call you can make of would you rather save on the energy carrying the cans and spend a bit more once you’re in or save the money? Stock is regularly replenished but probably best first thing in the morning.

It's the orange building on the map where the big arrow's pointing 🙂

It’s big but selection is limited. They basically have loads of the same things on display, and what they have can be a bit random.

 

Don’t expect normal Co-Op prices either. Many snacks are eyepoppingly expensive.

They’re not normal high street prices but it wasn’t as bad as people made out. Seemed readable to me when we bought mixers and I’ve from there the past few years

Yeah. It's somewhere around about normal Co-op prices plus 10%. Still far cheaper than anywhere else on site.

You can find the Co-op shop at Park Home Ground campsite; it might cost a bit more, but it's convenient for buying drinks and mixers, and they restock regularly, so it's best to go early in the morning.

Another silly question can you walk down that road to the left of the coop behind Arcadia and enter the Park by the Tipi Park label or is that only for vehicles? I'm assuming it is but never thought out it till just then!

The big bags of ice last year were a lifesaver

I'd assume you can't as it leads to backstage at The Park.

 

The Tipi Park itself is not public access.

here is shots from that road - its a crew road and also used by emergency vehicles !!!

Don't suppose anyone took pics of what they had on sale? Trying to work out if they'll have fancy mixers like Fever Tree cans.

no that grey road is a vehicle only road that comes into the production gate backstage at the park it is manned 24 hours and you will just be sent back down the lane again so don't try it please it wioll just be a disappointment for you and you'll have walked an extra 400 yards neadlessly

They've started building but it won't be ready to open until the 2026 festival.

Was just about to ask that......decided to go with cocktail cans rather than lager/cider for the campsite but want some ice.  Were the packs expensive?

 

Also anyone know what time it opens on the Weds?

i walked down that road on the top pic by accident once. no one checked my wristband and I ended up at a cool crew bar called the end of the world or something like that lol

[CaledonianGonzo]

The Lands End bar?

 

It's got two sides with one side facing the public bit of The Park.  Our usual meeting spot for gigs up there.

[internetjef]

I went in there a couple of times year before last . Stocks levels / product offferings seemed a bit scattergun. If you are absolutely wedded to a particular mixer / brand I would be a bit wary about availability (even if you know they sell it in regular offsite Co-ops).

 

if you are just looking for ‘something to use a mixer’ then you would def be fine 

 

I didn’t go last year though , and others may have different experience. Was later when I went in also

There was tonic i think at some point but it went quickly.

 

Expect lemonade, coke, fanta - anything else is a bonus honestly. (+softs e.g. apple / orange juice)

Great thank you - i will load up on ice as soon as the tent is errected!

[gfa]

if you plan to go a lot, its worth getting a co-op card as they had discounts etc. only costs £1

In the past they haven’t sold tonic water. Things like Coke, sprite and then juice is what they have
