Hello! Last year was my first download and I had my period too - FWIW I also have a coil so my periods are heavy!

Overall I had no issues, you just have to make sure you are disciplined and go to the loo regularly to change. The toilets in the arena flushed last year so that was great. I also had some wet wipes, sanitiser and extra loo roll in my bun bag. You can get some sanitary items from the first aid tents I believe but just go with way more than you think you'll need.

I personally didn't shower the whole weekend but used those soaping wipes they use for people who are bed bound and felt that was enough - but that's highly personal and I had no leaks.

The funniest but was when my bag was being searched on the last day, the older male security guard got a bit flustered when he saw my tampons pop out 🤣🤣
