Going to Forbidden, is it easy to buy enhancers inside, or do we bring them in?

Helloooooo,

I’m finally making it to We Out Here this year and was just after some advice as a first time attendee! I’ve tried and failed to persuade my friends for the last few years (we’re up in Leeds) so I’ve given up and decided to go solo. I’ve never been to a festival on my own before so I’m a lil apprehensive… But needs must!

I haven’t been to a camping festival in a LONG time, and I’m having flashbacks of the painful journey between the car park/drop off and the campsite… What’s it like at WOH? I’m going to have to somehow manage to cart all my shit to camp by myself, so need to consider what I pack

People have said that it’s a good festival to head to alone, but I was wondering if anyone had first-hand experience of it and could let me know what it was like? Having a dance and enjoying the music is easy. It looks like there’s all sorts of activities to do, but I’m a lil nervous of getting stuck in on my own haha

I’ve made life-long friends at festivals, they’re often a very friendly place!!! It’s just slightly daunting. I can’t be the only one, but I’m wondering if many people do it?

I’d also like to know what security’s like getting in AND around the festival - I’d rather not have to pay silly amount for beer (are drinks expensive???) and also not get stuff confiscated before it’s even begun!!!

Lastly, if anyone sees a curly haired girl wandering about on her own, please do wave hello!

Anyone closer to the venue than me able to give any predictions on what the ground might be like based on how the weather's been?

Glorious sunfest of last year or the explosion in a clay factory of 2024?

First time heading to Gottwood this year, anyone know what the security is like? Dogs in attendance?
Any repercussions if caught taking stuff in? Been to lost village many times and it’s just hand it over and go in. Just want to see if it’s the same vibe?

Hi if you guys are aged 18-30 and have been to a festival in the last year I would appreciate your input on this survey for my dissertation. I am studying events management at uni. It only takes 5 minutes, it is anonymous and multiple choice. Thank you. :)))
