going to kelburn solo

i have bought a ticket to go to kelburn with a friend and some people he knows, but today he got unexpectedly ill and now isn't expecting to be well enough to go, so there's a chance i will know very few people there, or at the very least be camping alone.

i've dropped a lot of money for this festival, so i would still like to find a way to go alone and enjoy it even if i'm alone. i'm in my thirties, so it doesn't feel as life-ending as it would have done to go alone if i were a teenager or in my twenties, but i do feel a bit apprehensive.

to people who are kelburn regulars, is it an easy festival to attend alone e.g. lots of social spaces and/or solo activities, welfare precautions, etc? do you have any recommendations for dos and don'ts? tyia!
