2. Relax and wait.

3. Panic there's only two weeks to go.

4. After reading these tips take a look at the on line shop.

5. Plan what you need to survive but don't go over the top so as you have too much to carry. Remember you can buy most things there.

6. Go with some good friends, but also be prepared for differences in opinion such as where to camp, eat and what bands to see.

7. Make sure you take enough cash. Credit card and banks on site normally have big queues and waste valuable fun time.

8. Plan how you are going to get to the festival. By car, train or bus. If you go by car expect long delays and also remember where you left it, three or four days at festival can distort your whole way of thinking and it will not look the same when you go to leave. By train is normally good with a bus link. If you are stuck in a bus queuing at least you have loads of other people to party with. You may be subject to a police search with any of theses forms of transport.

10. Further drug, alcohol and weapon checks may happen at the entrances to the festival.

13. Good places to pitch your tent: Somewhere flat and even - Somewhere with a distinctive location. Use a tree, flag or land mark to help you recognise where your tent is.

14. When you and your friend are pitching your tent give yourselves plenty of room, as it will soon disappear as the festival grows.

15. Arrival days are the best days to cook for yourselves, as when the festy starts you will be having too much fun and you won't want to cook.
