🚨 Here’s what I believe are the main tips for a perfect Glastonbury 🚨

Some may be controversial but be nice, it’s taken me about 45 mins to do this!

1. First and foremost; don’t overdo the Clashfinder. Pick 3/4 acts per day and be harsh with the ones that need cutting. The offering everywhere you go is mind blowing. Before I went I was assuming I wouldn’t be up for @glastotandc for example - how wrong I was.

2. Don’t be weird with the group if nobody wants to do your thing or vice versa. If you’re not doing things how you want to do them you’ll regret it, it’s the best place in the world and it’s YOUR time. Be selfish and encourage the others to be!

3. If you can afford it, don’t waste time, effort and weight to your bags by cooking breakfast and eating amongst tents at your camp. There are so many affordable breakfast places at Glasto and you might discover something new just walking there.

4. Even if you buy the largest capacity power bank to charge your phone you’ll have still rinsed it by Sunday. Buy another cheap one as your battery decreases much quicker at Glastonbury due to dropping in and out of/searching for signal the whole time.

5. In my perhaps controversial opinion, you never need full on wellies at Glastonbury, just take walking boots that you don’t mind getting muddy if it’s particularly bad. Your feet are your friend at Glastonbury and wellies aren’t friends to your feet

6. If you’re less outgoing but decide to watch something by yourself and feel like dancing but think you’ll look stupid, you won’t. Nobody cares, nobody judges, and you’ll have a better time 🕺🏻

7. Men: Being a large, wide-necked comfort conditioner bottle so you can piss in the tent at night.

Ladies: Do the same but remember your she-wee.

8. Instead of queuing for literally half an hour as some people do, just have a bottle of water and another to spit your toothpaste in to when brushing your teeth.

9. Make use of the free lockups where you can keep all of your cash totally safe. Tents do sometimes get robbed so don’t take chances, and it’s a good chance to chat to strangers as they’re all friendly.

10. Bring more socks and pants than you need. It’s so good changing them 🤤

11. When pitching your tent, the key thing is to be close to all or most of the following:
- The path
- A tap
- Toilets
- Lockups

12. If you’ve got the willpower, take power naps through the day rather than stress about not sleeping at night. If you wake up early, get out for a walk you’ll find yourself sleepy around 3pm. Alittle snooze with a steady bassline in the background can be surprisingly good 😌

13. Bring a camping bed, Go Outdoors do one for about £20! They add nothing to your luggage and are far better than flopping about in an air bed, and I find them much warmer being off the ground.
