Last minute Glastonbury essentials

by Phil on June 24, 2009

Some have already set off for Glastonbury by Wednesday, but if you’re like me and going Thursday there is still time to grab your festival essentials.

If this is your first festival, there may be some things you find useful on here.

First, some personal favourites:

  • Bin bags
  • Bulk pack of wetwipes
  • Painkillers
  • Wellies
  • String and gaffer tape
  • Cheap or old clothes, obviously
  • Waterproof coat
  • Batteries for whatever things you are taking, and a charger if you have the patience to queue
  • Snacks, even if you plan to buy most of your food whilst there

…some other tips from around the web

  • Wine boxes – lighter than bottles and more efficient to packing
  • Dialyte powder (designed for replenshing salts after stomach upsets and great for hangovers)
  • A chair – a stool or a big folding chair. Something to sit on at the end of the day

…and from comments…

  • Anti-bacterial hand wash (Sooz)
  • Sunglasses! (Sooz)

Leave a comment if I’ve missed anything.

I recommend taking your own anti-bacterial hand wash that doesn’t need water, it seemed to run out on the first day last year.

Also, a nice pair of sunnies are a must. Even if its cloudy they’ll hide the bags under your eyes!
