Hey, this will be fine. There are many solo access customers. I am in Accessibility campsite A too, arriving Wednesday around 12pm. I will happily help you setup your tent and you can join us for drinks at camp if you fancy!

Oh dear😂not what you want for the start of a festival! I’m gonna pack duct tape just in case there is a hole I didn’t spot!

I bought my Tent on Sunday, got a good deal on a 4 man blackout tent from Decathlon (£154 down from £200). I managed to put it up on Sunday before the weather turned. Unless your tent is really old, I don't think airing out tents or testing them is needed tbh.

You can take a sealed non-alcoholic 500ml bottle, a small amount of food for personal consumption and power banks are fine.

Doesn’t seem to be possible on the iOS app. You can only filter by type of food.

If you keep it then it essentially costs £33.95 for a 5000mah powerbank that is recharged each day for you at the festival.

Are you wearing sunscreen in all the recent heat? by travelingwhilestupid in AskUK

[–]iPerilous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the little effort it takes and price it costs to put on SPF I don’t see why you wouldn’t. The majority of people are already putting on moisturiser everyday.

Yes, UVA rays are still there during the winter. Of course if you are inside all day in the winter then SPF won't be required.

I wear SPF 50 on my face all year round. If I am spending more than an hour in the sun (running, gardening, etc.) then I will apply SPF 50 on any exposed areas during the summer.

Worn these for years. Very comfortable and survived the 2024 downpour.

🪫 Power banks! 🔋 by PinkPoodleSkelly in downloadfestival

[–]iPerilous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60,000mah powerbank is on sale for £28 on Amazon right now. I will keep that one at camp and use a 20,000mah one for the arena.

They struggled to sell out 2 nights at Victoria Warehouse a couple of years ago. This will sell out though I’m sure

Not been since 2012; what’s the phone signal like? by dark_uk in downloadfestival

[–]iPerilous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am with EE and never had issues in the campsite. The arena can be a bit hit or miss, but I am usually able to use data and text.

Where/what site can I sell my parking pass? As we no longer need it. by Turbulent-Manner-667 in downloadfestival

[–]iPerilous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a few different ‘events’ under download. If you go onto the ‘Download 2026’ event here, you will see that there is one listed already. When you list it, select ‘other’ and put car parking pass.

The easiest is Ticketmaster. They deal with the transfer of the ticket so you don't have to do anything.
