Glastonbury Festival has sent an email out to campervan ticket holders letting them know that both the East and West Campervan will not now be open until 6pm tomorrow, to allow the fields extra time to dry out. Originally they were due to open at noon.

The message says, "Dear campervan / caravan ticket holder

We're writing to let you know that, due to the rainfall on the Glastonbury Festival site over the past couple of days, we need to push back the opening of the east and west campervan fields by a few hours.

Both of the fields will now open at 6pm on Tuesday, 21 June.

Please note that any vehicles which arrive before 6pm will be turned away (with no exceptions).

We would also expect there to be some congestion at 6pm, so would suggest coming a few hours later than that if you are able to.

We apologise for any inconvenience this causes - but this is being done to ensure that the campervan / caravan fields are in the best possible condition when they open.

Thank you for your understanding.

See you very soon!
Glastonbury Festival"
