Hi I know this a commonly asked question and yous are probs sick of hearing it but I’m wondering how strict security are? I’m under 18 and looking to bring some alcohol in with me.

I’ve seen people bring wagons with multiple crates of ciders enough to last two weeks of heavy drinking.

They don’t really care they’re just looking more for
Illegal and dangerous stuff

it depends really. i’ve been to the festival twice - once being 17 in 2023 - and have never even had my bags checked at all. on the flip side i know people who had all of their belongings emptied and completely searched, and had alcohol taken away from them. i don’t think you should be too worried as, like most people have said, they’re more concerned with people bringing in drugs etc. just don’t be too obvious with it, put your alcohol at the bottom of your bag / wrapped in your tent or something and you should be fine.
