A number of people have stolen this list over the years, including internet cowboys http://glastonbury2010.info and http://glastonburyfestival.fm...what dicks. Please have the decency to credit me if you use this material, by putting a link back to this site. That's all I ask. Thank you.
Ticket – Firstly and obviously, remember to put your ticket in. Place it somewhere safe and where it won’t get ruined.
Money, Cash and Debit/Credit card – These are things that you should keep with you at all times. I would suggest withdrawing around £50 before you get into the festival because the ATM machines usually take a huge commission.
Clothes and Spare Clothes – The worst thing that can happen at Glastonbury is getting wet and not having any dry clothes to change into. I found that the most useful spares are socks and undies. Its awesome to change into some clean socks when you feel like rubbish.
Camera – An essential item for capturing those classic Glastonbury memories! I would suggest stocking up on disposables so you aren’t constantly worried about losing your digital. Also, a lot of your stuff is likely to get knocked around and disposables are very durable. They also have more funny results than digital cameras and your mates won't be able to delete the embarrassing photos! :D
Mobile Phone – Very useful for finding friends when you are lost, and showing your mate an awesome song when he’s at home! Remember to keep it switched off at night and when you are not using it to save the battery life. Its got to last 3-4 days! If you have some money try and get a second battery off eBay. Charge it up and take it with you. Then you have twice the battery life!
Condoms - If your thinking of getting lucky, its better to be safe than sorry. The last memory you want of your Glastonbury experience is a kid!
Pain Killers – Essential for that morning hang over. Be sure to drink lots of water too.
Sun Cream/Sun Block – You never know how the weather may turn out, so pack some just in case.
Hat – Useful for keeping those sun rays off your sensitive scalp. Make it as bizzare as you like! Hats can also keep your head warm in the cool evenings.
Tin and Bottle Opener – If you have either of these you will be very popular at the festival.
Toilet Paper - It’s useful for a number of reasons so make sure someone in your group packs a roll.
Torch - Very useful for hunting around in the dark, and finding stuff in your tent.
Tooth brush/Chewing Gum – Everyone hates bad breath and everyone hates dentist bills, so take both of these with you to Glastonbury.
Wet Wipes – Forget the showers, wet wipes are the only cleansing device you will need at a festival. I underestimated their amazingness until i woke up feeling grotty on the second day. They are useful for cleaning cuts too.
Sunglasses – Very useful for when it gets sunny, and for hiding your expressions around strange people. Sunglasses are really cheap now, but make sure you get ones with 'UV protection' otherwise your eyes are still getting damaged. They will be a little more expensive, but at least you won't be getting any damage.
Stove and Pan – very useful for cooking up some food when you get the munchies. Pasta is an excellent easy meal to do, and its full of carbs so it will keep you going!
Knife Fork and Spoon – They don’t take up any space, and are always needed so make sure you pack them. If you can't fit all three in, consider getting a SPORK. Its a spoon and a fork combined and its bloody brilliant!
A mug – A mug can accommodate any type of drink hot or cold. It can also hold soup and noodles, so make sure you pack one!
Water Container – useful for washing up and making drinks.
A small bottle of spirits – Beer will probably be an awefu lot inside the festival so top up on some spirits to make getting drunk a little cheaper. You. are reminded to always drink responsibly.
Matches/skins/tobacco – Don’t be the guy thats always taking peoples tobacco, you are annoying. If you don’t smoke then i still recommend matches
Wellies - Glastonbury is always muddy so take wellies as your footwear. They are cold though so make sure you have some good thick walking socks to wear inside.
Your mates – the most important part of any festival
