Glastonbury Festival have asked festival goers to pack light, as all ticket holders will be subject to extra searches of their vehicles, their bags and their person at this year's Festival, which will make entrance slower than normal. The biggest queues are likely on the Wednesday, so if you want to avoid them arrive on the Thursday or Friday.

For the full details of the festival's suggestions for helping yourself as well as the flow of people into the festival please see their important information.

Don't forget the ‘Love the Farm, Leave no Trace’ pledge:-

I will use the toilets provided and not pee on the land
I will use the recycling bins provided and not throw my rubbish on the ground
I will take all my belongings home with me again, including my tent and all camping equipment
I will bag up my rubbish in the bin bags provided by the campsite stewards and use the recycling pens provided in each campsite.

Please commit to this pledge and encourage others to stick to it too, to help ensure a sustainable Festival.

Glastonbury Festival takes place at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset from Wednesday 21st to Sunday 25th June.
