They open the arena at about 5pm, which is about the same time as the app starts bombarding you with a mixture of useful and useless information and ads.
Thursday evening is fairly low key. There is usually something on in the trailer park - covers bands type of thing. There have been occasional surprise acts on Thursday evenings - Frank Turner being one recent example. What is left of the poetry/literature/podcast tent will also be open and should have some interesting stuff.
The concessions are all open and there is plenty to see. It is also a good opportunity to get your bearings while it is still quiet.
Setting up camp nice and early, spending a couple of hours on a sunny afternoon sitting outside your new abode with a drink in hand and then wandering into the arena is a cracking start to the weekend.

Exciting times , Peace have been added to the sunrise list but not made it to the poster yet The site is quite compact so its really easy to explore and look round which is beneficial when you want to see acts on several stages - there are also tonnes of lovely volunteers and sinage to help you get round too  I hope you have a great first festival! |

All the food places will be open with no queues!
If you fancy a meal which might be very popular, get it on Thursday

Also, work out vaguely how long it takes you to walk between the stages/tents, where the loos and water refill sites are.
You’re going to love it.
