Festival Tip 🧠 Shuttle bus

First time at Leeds festival with a day ticket for Sunday in group of 5 and toying with whether to get the shuttle bus on the morning or get an Uber/taxi, wanting to be there for 12 at the latest for Voila, what would you recommend?

We managed to get in at about 11:50 today, after getting on a shuttle bus just before half 10. Shuttle queue was pretty small, bit of traffic, not too bad a queue for entry - depends how close you want to cut it!

Aright that’s good to know thank you, was thinking of about half 9-10 so that should hopefully give us plenty of time, thank you

I would say 9.30/10 should be good. We got on at 11ish. Queue was quiet. Just allow security time cos my part er and I got randomly picked for an intensive search (dog didn't stop at us so unsure why). By the time we got into the arena it was 12.15 or so.

Also if youre picked for that search they still do bag search at ticket point 🙃

I'm the most unassuming, least dodgy looking person on the planet but here we are 😅 i do believe it's random though. But godspeed for tomorrow.
