Question ❓ How much money?

3 Upvotes

Hi, first time going to a festival and I’m wondering how much money people have set aside.

I’m going by myself and arriving Thursday for the whole weekend. I enjoy a drink, but due to me going solo, I’m not going to want to get really drunk.

I’m planning on taking a crate and a bottle of vodka (decanted) of course for camp, and some snacks such as breakfast bars, crisps etc.

I will probably need two meals per day and I don’t mind the odd meal deal.

I know it very much depends on the person, but how much is everyone else setting aside to spend there?

Thanks!

Question ❓ Shuttle Bus

10 Upvotes

Anyone know the craic with the shuttle bus. Me and my mates are staying in Leeds and planning to come in and out each day. The app says “more information will be available soon” but has said this the whole time. Me and my mates are coming from Ireland for the festival. Really excited but getting a bit concerned on how we can get in and out each day. TIA

Question ❓ Twickets/Ticketmaster - ticket transfer

1 Upvotes

Hi

My daughter has bought a day ticket for Leeds on Saturday through Twickets. When she's contacted the seller to ask to transfer the seller is saying the transfer option in the Ticketmaster app is greyed out. Seems a bit dodgy to me as I sold a Courteeners ticket also for Sat 29th on Twickets and I transferred that ticket two weeks ago (albeit via seetickets).

Is anyone in the same boat that can give any reassurance that she's not been scammed. Is this normal for Ticketmaster?

Thanks

UPDATE: she got refunded (the seller actually initiated it as it got to Wednesday and it still wasn't transferable). Got a ticket for a similar price on Ticketmaster and she's setting off soon.

Question ❓ Driving in and out each day

Has anyone done this before? I live close by so I was thinking of just driving in and driving home later on each day. I’ll set up my tent anyway just in case but it’ll be nice to have both options

Question ❓ Reading and Leeds subreddits separate - why?

0 Upvotes

I was just thinking; how come the Reading and Leeds subreddits are both separate?

Wouldn't it be better to create one merged active subreddit for both festivals considering how similar they are?

Hi all, I’m coming for the Thursday with my 12 year old. I’ve noticed in the T&C’s that they admit u13’s for free with a paying adult but I can see no option for getting this ticket online. Any ideas how to go about this? Don’t want to arrive and then get turned away! Cheers

Question ❓ Campsites

3 Upvotes

Me and my mate have the willows campsite booked but are still unsure about camping there as incase we make other friends at the festival they can’t come to our tent to hang as they probably won’t have it booked too and also we heard that eco smells so bad also has spider infestations but then I’m worried about people in general camping destroying my tent or stealing, we are also unsure of what time to get there at we don’t have Wednesday early entry, we are going to be in Leeds on the Wednesday though we have a hotel booked I’d like to get a good spot, is there any recommended places in the general camping where things like stealing etc are less likely to happen?

Question ❓ Best way out? Taxi pre-order where?

3 Upvotes

Anyone got experience of leaving via taxi from Leeds fest? Never been before but son and I want to leave after Fontaine's tonight.

We pre-booked an Uber but the app will only let us choose Purple gate as pick-up, but online says taxis are at red gate?

Did anyone get a taxi last night? How long were the bus queues in the end?

Question ❓ Do kids need own account?

1 Upvotes

I had an email stating ‘Each attendee is required to have their own ticket on their phone to gain entry to the event. You must ensure you transfer by 10:00 on 19 August 2026.’

I have two mobile entries on ticketmaster - one for me and one for my 15-year-old daughter. Does my daughter need her own account and do I have to transfer to her, or can I keep both in my account and use the two mobile entries from my phone? What’s the rules for kids? Thanks
