Can anyone shed any light on what arriving on the thursday is like (all 6 of us so n one to take in our tents etc) is there actually space available anywhere. Do they keep campsites back for thursday folk. half 8 bus from bristol so should be there sharp

 

There’s campsite advisors just inside gate A that should be able to tell you where there’s spaces. Lime kiln used to have reasonable spaces on Thursday but not sure nowadays. Sites on the periphery will also have spaces that might allow you all together

We are going Thursday too. Was plenty of room at lime kiln and hitchen hill on Thursday this year so I'm not worried. Nothing happens on the Wednesday anyway really so be more fresh when the festival proper starts

First year of the dance tent if I remember correctly

I am going for the 20th time! woo!

[SticklinchJoe]

Hm, I'll have to count up how many I've been to. Probably not as many as twenty because I've missed a fair few, but can't be far off.

[uscore]

I've just done a recount and actually 2025 will be my 21st

It was. We were camped near it and it was bloody noisy, not least because we were also surrounded by multitudes of other unofficial sound systems that blared out thumping techno throughout the night.

Was an interesting Glastonbury that year, probably one of my favourites
