Tell us how you afford the festival season

silverguide.site –

Festival season is upon us, and ticket prices are as high as ever. The most basic Glastonbury tickets are £378, with coach tickets on top anywhere between £60 and £160. Meanwhile Latitude starts at £308, and even day festivals such as Field Day can exceed £80.

With this in mind, we would like to hear about how the costs of festivals might have affected your plans. Do you save up for festival season, or take out a loan? Do you go as a volunteer? Or has the cost of festivals got so high you can’t go any more?
