I love Glastonbury.
I could happily attend the festival and not see a single band. Just wonder around the theatre fields, green fields South East corner and soak up the atmosphere. I could spend the whole weekend just ppl watching.
But
Think carefully about the campervan. My friends and I did take one for a few years. But it's a long walk up the hill of death each night to get to bed. And proberly through 4 or 5 other campervan fields unless your lucky to get one near the entrance. Glastonbury involves a lot of walking anyway. But your looking and an hour each way to your camper.
You can bring your own food and drink. You can easily to the festival on a shoe string, (tickets aside). I tend to bring my own drink and the festival organisers require every food stall to sell at least one meal for minimum price. £6 I think last time I was there. You can get a meal for less at some places. Toasties and pasties or whatever.
I ain't gonna lie as I get older I find the festival hard particularly the first and last day of the festival. As these days I camp. But arrive early and get a good pitch and everything is so much easier.
Yes the toilets are bad. But some are nicer than others. I will never go in a chemical loo and much prefer the soil toilets because they are much cleaner.
Also mud changes everything.
Glastonbury can be hard work and at times uncomfortable. But its the best party in the world. If you can be prepared to overlook the walking, and the mud and the poo. You will have a great time. You have until April before you pay the ticket balance to make up your mind. See you and the cider bus.
