What should every first timer do?

This is only my second time, but my main advice is to pack light. The walk from the entrance to a place to pitch your tent can get very long if you carry a lot of stuff and it keeps raining. I fell in the mud twice in 2016 lmao

Walk up to the glastonbury sign without turning around till you reach it

 

First thing that came to my mind as well! 🙂

 

Other than that, do whatever feels good. The festival is immense, so be prepared to miss a lot of stuff you'd normally want to see and still have a great time. During my first Glastonbury (2011) we tried to see as many acts, stages and areas as possible, which was absolutely great, but it's not for everyone.

 

(12 years later, one of my highlights of the 2023 edition was spending more than an hour at the BBC Natural History Unit tent to listen how they filmed Planet Earth 3, so I have to admit, I've changed 😛 )

Be there on the Wednesday, walk round and appreciate how big and amazing the site is

Yep, definitely going to be getting there on the Wednesday. Probably mid afternoon which is later than we’d like but it’s a long travel down from Newcastle😂

Make sure you have a decent tent. We upgraded this year and I got so much more out of the festival being able to sleep well each night.

Bar crawl on Wednesday, explore the site and finish up at the Glastonbury sign. 
enjoy all the build up, the rumours, the planning and preparing, it’s all part of the fun and the festival goes by in the blink of an eye so best to make sure you savour all the excitement in the build up
