Early Start For Glastonbury 2010

Glastonbury will open car park gates on Tuesday night in 2010. This is an effort to prevent the huge 30 mile back log that occurs each year. Locals dread the 5 days of carnage thrust upon their tiny village each year and traffic is one of their biggest gripes.

Michael Eavis has decided to allow the early bird’s the chance to get in while the village sleeps and cause as little disruption to the locals as possible.

As always there will be a token cockney selling over priced hotdogs from an ice cream van until the gates open at 9am.

Portable toilets will be available to those who arrive before 9am.

Eavis said although people will still have to wait in their cars, it will be better than “being lined up by the side of the road for six hours”.

Michael would also like more people to travel there by public transport as it saves “a hell of a lot of traffic and saves a lot of space”.

    Left warwickshire 430 in the morning arrived at Pilton at 700 after having stopped off for breakfast and meeting friends.First few people let on site, all I would suggest is to plan ahead and it meant we had two whole days of exploring the site before the throngs arrived.
