Tickets for this year's bash are on sale here, with the option of camping in the picturesque park for the preceding week in the run-up to the festival itself. Student discounts are also available. If on the other hand you've entered the dreaded grind of nine to five and are no longer in possession of a valid NUS card, weekend tickets cost a rather reasonable £120.
