Campervans are usually in a separate field, located on the other side of the arena to RIP and General camping. Getting to and from District X (The “village”) last year was a fair hike or needed the use of the shuttle bus, although Campervan plus was closer.

Google Download 23 map to get an idea of how it will probably be set up this year

Each campervan ticket holder will be allocated a pitch measuring 9 metres by 7 metres. We will provide portable toilets and showers, fresh water and waste disposal points.

And vehicle and awning must be contained within your pitch

No electric or water hook-up is provided.

On a field, which could be muddy and on a slope, but the positives you’re very close to the arena

"Download for the Sunday. Got a hotel nearby if anyone is interested in some fun? Any guesses on the secret set?"

Based on recent interviews, it's someone who has played before, so rules out foos, paramore, greenday.

Money is on Weezer or parkway drive. But they have said it is a big artist, which questions this.

Will find out today...

Top tip for next year - Vodaphone gets perfect signal in the arena and most of the campsite.

In previous years two friends in my group always had signal with Vodaphone, so I got myself a £10 eSIM this year and had 5G all weekend!
