Glow sticks, my daughter took a tube of 100 and they were very popular Plastic disposable rain poncho to carry in a day sack.

warm stuff for the night - honestly, you need thermals and a hat as it gets really really cold.

Money belt - best and safest way of keeping your money. Leave other valuables at home. You need it in your sleeping bag at night, I'm afraid.

Wellies and really comfy shoes - you do a lot of walking and standing.

wet wipes as these will be better than toilet paper for you, and after the 1st day you dont want to venture anywhere near the toilets...........:eek:

A wheelbarrow to carry your stuff in.And dont take anything you dont need or expensive Take inflatable chair and spare carrier bags for your dirty clothes.enjoy the madness of Glasto

I'm 18 coming on 19, been to glastonbury pretty much every year since I was born. This year and last I've been campervanning it but can still give the tent perspective, I just get to keep cleaner

tooth brush and tooth paste
chewing gum that works also to brush your teeth
wet wipes
shower gel (use also as shampoo) -some people I know get dry shampoo but i don't see the point, either wash or don't wash for the weekend :P
toilet paper roll
hair brush
sun cream, don't forget or if it's sunny (hopefully!) you will burn
deodrant
medication, you don't want to have diarrhea at glastonbury believe me, nor do you want any discomfort that's toilet related

day stuff

hippie clothes

you need to decide whether you want to make your own food or eat at glasto. Personally i'd take snacks but take money as eating at glastonbury can be an experience-don't rely on the vans down near the stages though, head up to the green fields and park for sushi, pizza, bhutanese, thai and indian food, plenty of cute little tents that sell vegan and veggie locally produced stuff. Just have cereal bars and stuff... Honeybuns tent usually give away a free cake a year to. The jordans cereal tent is nice. Hare krishna free food is awesome.
Alcohol or drugs or both
sunglasses
wellies and trainers, although short walking boots or goretex would do perfectly

other potential useful things
--
hat
torch
tent !
pack away mac
quick dry clothing

Rather than bin liners which easily split, take some heavy duty garden waste bags and lots of gaffer tape to seal the bags. Then ensure that one set of clothes is well and truely sealed so they'll be in a fit state to be worn on the trip home

:rotfl:only in the dance / pyramid / punter-central areas!

staff areas are still lovely after several weeks of us living there and in the hippy/green/craft areas people care and do use the bins!!
