    Top tip, you can take sealed water bottles into the arena. You can cut the top off a doner bottle of water, stick it in boiling water and pop the whole cap and unbroken seal off with a screwdriver, then stick it on another bottle full of gin/vodka.

      @@frankiefisher1971 are you going to reading? Camp in white campsite - everyone knows it as the quieter place. It's still busy and has atmosphere, just it's the further campsite from the arena. Again, if you're young you might like one closer. Generally closer = rowdier. Just don't put a lock on your tent, it advertises you have something to steal. Your valuables should be on your person, at nighttime put them up by your head, and just use some common sense and you'll be fine.
