Hey Sweetness, I can only tell you what I do. Arrive no earlier that 11:00 pm. or midnight. The ones I attended lasted all night (Llandilo park), (this was before all the noise restriction BS) so I would not spend money on accommodations in Sav, unless you want to rent a room to crash the next day. I have brought one of those folding camp chairs, or a blanket will do. TP is a must. I would travel light, not bring expensive cameras/bling and dress to move with sensible shoes. It can get a little muddy so stilettos are not practical, although many wear them. Plenty of food and drink available outside and inside the venue. They do search bags, etc. upon entrance. I'm not a VIP person, so don't know what that gets you.
