We\u2019ve been thinking outside the box at Feedback this year. Of course you should bring your wellies and a tent to Glastonbury, but what items have you not thought about?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re lucky enough to have a ticket to Worthy Farm this year, here are some packing tips and items that will serve you well this Glastonbury. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no guarantee in this country but with any luck, the sun will come out for the weekend. Hats, glasses and sun cream will be commonplace, but have you thought about a portable electric fan? Slightly decadent for a weekend at Glastonbury but it is certainly worth thinking about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This one is a bit grim in all honesty. Baby wipes. Showers at Glastonbury are rare. And popular. In the words of the festival itself: \u2018you should expect to queue for a while to use them.\u2019 Without not going into too much detail, this may not be the only issue with them. Wiping yourself down with baby wipes when you\u2019re hungover could be a good time saver and a small hygienic victory, albeit something of a low point. You won\u2019t be thinking about that when heading to the Pyramid Stage for a historic Coldplay set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the shortest sleeps of your life will come at festivals; late nights watching music followed by the sun antisocially streaming in your tent a matter of hours later. It is a challenge for the most seasoned, professional snoozers to get more than about five hours. The solution? Get yourself a blackout tent. These things are magic. If you\u2019ve got the budget, these tents block out the sunlight and should buy you a couple hours more sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think very carefully about food options. Tins and dry food that lasts is undoubtedly your best bet. It is never going to be the finest cuisine but if you cast your mind back to the start of this article, you won\u2019t be thinking about that when heading to the Pyramid Stage for a historic Coldplay<\/strong><\/em> set.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep your beers cool whilst saving space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tip is only really useful for about a day but Feedback recommends freezing water bottles to keep alongside your other drink choices. As the ice gradually melts, you\u2019re left with a cool bottle of water or a cool beer, depending on the direction you want to take the night. Seriously though, stay hydrated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keane, PJ Harvey<\/em><\/strong> and IDLES<\/em><\/strong> are some of Feedback\u2019s top picks for the weekend as well as alternative underground headliners Otoboke Beaver, NewDad and BC Camplight<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. Whatever you have in your kit bag, I\u2019m sure you will have a great time.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
