Yes, exactly! I give him 10/10 too!

Safety vest, hardhat, a company lanyard with an ID of some sort, while carrying a walkie talkie or clip board or even a spool of wires. I sneak in anywhere. Went to Disney World in Orlando last October, we snuck into Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom all in the same day. and if anyone questions you "We're with Verizon, installing Beta-Line cables for the co-axial bridge." (Just nonsense words) -"Okay sir right this way"-

I respect this even more because it goes to show if you hide in plane sight, you can get away with so much! I hope you enjoyed the festival!

Yo thanks so much 🤣

I went to Glastonbury twice in the 80s and three times in the 90s. In 1984, when punters could drive private vehicles onto the site, I hid below a load of students' rucksacks in the back of their minibus after they'd picked me up hitch-hiking there. One of my friends, who'd already arrived, nearly gave the game away when he saw the dog that used to live with me and started shouting out "Is Peter in there?". Last time I went was in 1997, and it was dangerously-overcrowded, particularly in a 'pinch point' between the Pyramid and Other Stages. I can't help thinking that was 'coz of the number of folk who'd 'bunked-in'. Anyway, I've not been since, but to smaller events (for which I've paid, btw), such as Wychwood, The Downs Festival (here in Bristol) & The Lunar Festival.

Getting free food from the hare krishnas and then spending £45 on a stupid hat is peak british festival culture. You've gone native.

This is a perfect festival experience video, you make truly authentic content my friend keep it up

I am standing here, hand on my hip, thinking, no way. Not a chance. Truly beaming for you and have real tears in my eyes after 4 mins in. Tears of joy for you, well bloody done ! 😄🤯🥳🥳

Kudos to you for your bravado in just WALKING RIGHT THROUGH THE MAIN GATE! 😂 And i love that we got to see you doing it! To be fair, people do that sometimes ... it's one way. When i went the first time, before the big fence was built, just up the road from the main gate was a field with a line of people walking somewhere, so we followed them and it led to a gate, across a lane, through a hole in a hedge and that was it we were in. The 2nd time i went my band was playing there, on one of the theater stages, so we got in for free. I think my favourite thing about Glastonbury festival is just walking around the tents enjoying the vibes, meeting people and stopping for chats, smokes and drinks and cups of tea. - and going on missions to find things, get water, ect

I spent a summer in London in 2008 with my best friends. We lived in an apartment with 7 other roommates on brick lane. We all last minute decided to go to Glastonbury…we did the wristband pass back trick because Facebook had just come out. Best 4 days I’ve ever had…coolest festival you will ever go to. I’ve sat right on those ancient stones absolutely tripping balls while people in wedding dresses walked around playing the violin…the sunrise watch party was the best. So stoked you got to experience it!

I watched this video on the Friday morning of Glastonbury 2023 and it inspired me to sneak in myself. Going in the front door is absolutely NOT as easy as Connor makes it look here, I tried the same thing twice at two seperate gates and got laughed at and turned around. However, with a bit of tenacity, a few tall fences climbed, several hours crawling through dense scrub & some blind luck at a poorly staffed gate at the far back of the festival site - I eventually made it in. The uncertainty, adrenaline and excitement if it all was incredible. Best decision ever & thanks Connor for the inspo!

The kazoo struggle was my favorite part

My son once took a grappling hook with him and I sneaked in in the eighties in a van,I didn't even have an overnight bag or clothes just what I was wearing. I also tried to sneak in in the nineties but I just paid £10 to a guy holding the fence open. We'll bloody done.

Absolute legend!

Excellent film!

I love all of your videos, but this is one of my favorites.

Glad I stumbled on your video! I haven't been to Glastonbury, which is Europes biggest, but attended perhaps 30 festivals in my home country Denmark. Saw Rolling Stones and Stevie Wonder on my birthday on Roskilde Festival, which is like a "mini" Glastonbury with 120,000 ppl, of which 30,000 are volunteers. All extra income from the festival goes to good causes. Win/win!

broo !!! that was so good i could'teven believe you got in like that 😂

Looks like it. The video is carefully edited so it jumps from him being outside the gate by the cabins to him being inside the gate between the two lines of heras fencing covered in green fabric that are past the ticket check. The point at which lanyards are given out at this gate is about 20 metres beyond the ticket check.

Yep pretty sure the guy in the background that says ‘all tickets’ also says something about a passout. My guess is this is actually his 2nd run from the carpark and he shows a passout voucher. Also he’s very careful to never film his left wrist so I assume the actual wristband is on that.

Thought they were kicking us out, sitting it in the back of the police land-rover sitting ourselves thinking were getting driven off site, my sister says we need to get to gate c to meet our mum with tickets and she has baby in pushchair, still thinking we're being escorted out. Turned out they were driving us right in! Got the the inside of pedestrian gate c or whatever it was and they were like OK here we are, see you later guys! We get out, look at each other, Booooom! 😜 Such a buzz x

It's the biggest Music Festival in the World 😊

You're supposed to hum through a kazoo... blowing doesn't do anything. I remember the Hari Krishnas at Glastonbury, ... my mate Mike was playing his trumpet in the back of our big van, and the H. Krishnas all came along the way with their instruments, singing, so Mike started playing along to their tune but with a jazz vibe which caused all of them ... like 80 or so people to all crowd around the back of the van to play along with Mike and they're all just looking at us like a bunch of blissed out space cadets, happily playing their music, it was a funny moment.

I love you Connor keep being YOU

For real, dude, you actually snuck in? I actually went to Glastonbury and they checked everybody’s ticket at the entrance. Tickets at the time was around 400 bucks, so it ain’t cheap.

Amazing! Did they think you were press? 📸

Can’t believe you just walked right in bro 😎 If you find a little Stream then follow it and it goes right thro Glastonbury??.

Did you buy your camping gear on site? If so I know Glasto is a diverse festy but I didnt know they'd accepted $$ as currency 😆

Unlikely knowing how tight security is .. but entertaining

Here's a question, I've just watched this after watching another sneak in video. Did you buy your camping gear inside the festival or did you have it with you on entry? And then when leaving, did you pack it up and take it with you or pack it up and donate it or did you just leave it as is?
