So I'm going to my first ever music festival on Sunday (don't think you can count smash hits beach party in the 90s)

Not camping, thankfully. Any top tips?

And how do you snuggle in your booze? True to my Scottish stereotype I refuse to pay their bar prices!

Good comfy shoes

Snacks

If it’s all day take appropriate clothes especially if it’s too hot or raining or cooling in evening

Sun cream

A hat

Old school but a bum bag for money and cards and phone etc.

A water bottle

I also took a small roll mat or a section of one to sit on the ground

You can get booze in sachets (like ketchup packets) that tuck nicely in a bra

You might be able to smuggle a small bottle of something in on your person, in your bra or underwear...depends if they do body searches.

We have ponchos for the rain and I'll definitely be in flats

Flirt with or know security, time it when very busy, throw it or pass it to your friend inside, hollowed out unsliced load of bread , Foldable chairs.

Enjoy! Last ones I did was Summertime ball, Citadel and Glastonbury. The last Glastonbury i bought a fake NME backstage pass for £20 and we could take whatever we wanted in

We bought pouches to tape to ourselves (the young team at work gave that tip) and to hide them in an empty pack of wipes

Me flirt might get my friend to do that!

Don't think Linlithgow palace will have a need for back stage passes but what a genius idea!

You get foldable plastic pouches. I smuggled them in down my bra and the side of my shorts

Deepest darkest Peru

The festival I went to last month we had little pouches taped to our thighs. They made us open up our foldable chairs to check them

My saving grace was my poncho as the weather was not kind. We had rain, thunderstorms and hail with a sprinkling of sunshine

The dance tent was like a mud pit

You can buy fake tampons. It's tubes you can fill up with alcohol.

Me and my friends have used these before for festivals.

Tissues/toilet paper. Hand sanitiser. Usually these are well stocked but it really depends on the event and if you use the toilet at the wrong time...

Next Door

Take vodka in a sealed water bottle.

Most festivals will allow a sealed bottle of water.

You need to take the sealed top off a bottle.

It's easy to do

You can absolutely count the Smash Hits Beach Party in the 90s.

"You can absolutely count the Smash Hits Beach Party in the 90s."

In fact, I got pissed and gatecrashed the Smash Hits Poll Winners Party once.

Great times.

Worthing

I'd not drink alcohol at a festival. You will need the loo more often than not and there will be big queues! Just take water and high protein snacks to fill you up. Take a light water proof.
