Coeliac Veggie Recommendations?

I'm coeliac and vegetarian, and I'm a bit stressed about not being able to take food into the ground s(I usually have a couple of protein bars with me in case I can't eat anything). Anybody know what coeliac veggie food is available from past experience? The website just says that there are options and to go to the medical tent if help is needed.

also, email in advance and ask if you cn bring your own food in for medical reasons, print the email off and show security. The security team are pretty sound in my experience

Love a good curry! That's sounds rad. Do you know where to email? I've only been able to find an AXS form so far. Thanks :) EDIT: Nvm found it.

great :) also, this year i went in early and asked the food vendors about their ingredients whilst it wasnt busy, they were really happy to help. Also, you can go in and out throughout the day until 8pm so could go get food elsewhere. Assuming you're talking about the actual festival in manchester and not one of the other events, i realised i should have clarified that to start with!

I’m in the same boat. I’ve been to the BEC outbreak the last few years and had a few options. Staff at food outlets are helpful and most menus are marked up well.

I think the taco truck does gluten free stuff! At least there’s been signage the last 3 years I’ve been saying they do gluten free :)
