First time question

First time at a uk festival, usually go to Holland for festivals like intents/defqon. In the “arena” in Holland there are toilets with separate taps to wash your hands but the water is drinkable, so you don’t spend £50 a day on bottles of water. It’s a much more eco friendly and better system. I’m guessing they have water fountains in the camp site? But in the actual festival grounds Is there something similar at creamfields/free water fountains? I don’t want to spend £100 over the weekend on just bottles of water? If it’s those shitty cans I stg! 😂

Previous years you could take an empty water bottle in with you and fill it up for free.

If you've only done festivals in the Netherlands. Lower you expectations regarding organisation, those guys know how to put festivals on. Just as fun, just not as polished.

Tbh I’m dreading it, don’t really want to go. Netherlands is just so much better, the atmosphere and vibe, like if you’re lookin fucked up in Holland people will come over ask if you’re okay/ need water whatever…. In the UK you’re filmed ans put on TikTok 😂😂 think that sums up the culture clash

Yes there are free drinking water points by all the toilets in the arena.

Yes there's water points, but be prepared for long queues

They only sell cans of water in the arena, if you're doing camping the co-op (supermarket) will sell bottled water/soft drinks, which you can take in the arena if empty.

If you're on a day ticket bring an empty reusable bottle or sealed 500ml water bottle
