1) how easy is it to get alchohol into the arena?

2) are there ticket touts around the place, worth bringing the ticketless friend?

3) any news on weather....?

There are tickets for sale on this very forum

in the festival section.

Additionally, there are loads on Scarlet Mist.com so why chance it by turning up and dealing with some Essex wideboy outside the gate?


Getting booze

Into any festival is easy.

1) take one collapsible water bottle (£5 from camping shop)
2) this will hold exactly one bottle of red wine
3) Stick in pocket or strap to small of back
4) walk in
5) drink

I've been doing this for about 10 years at festivals


gay

I like white wine.


good knowledge


On the website it says

they don't mind you taking booze in as long as its not "excessive"


they won't let you take it into the arena

unless you smuggle it in.

campsite is fine


what about...

vodka/lemonade in a normal water bottle, do they really investigate whether these things are 'sealed'...


Thats

what I presume.


if they see you with a bottle

they will not let you through with it. We had sealed water with us, but had to open it up and pour it out before we were let in! Fuckers.


it says sealed water bottles are allowed.

under 500ml. arbitary.


I smuggled a crazy amount

into T in the Park this weekend, and they are supposedly quite strict on that sort of thing, so you'll be fine sneaking a good few cans in at a time!
