Sanctuary Festival '08 - You CAN bring alcohol on site

We have had many questions with regards to bringing alcohol and soft drinks to the Sanctuary Festival 2008 and would like to announce our new policy on this.

Previously, no alcohol was to be taken on to site whatsoever.

This still applies to people buying Saturday Only tickets.

However – anyone who has bought a ticket for the Full Weekend with Camping and is arriving on Friday 8th August will be allowed to bring the following amounts for consumption within the campsite.

Firstly there must strictly be NO GLASS of any kind allowed on to the festival site at any time.

Allowance per person:

1 litre of soft drink (Sealed – if seal is broken container will be confiscated)

8 cans of beer, lager, cider or alcopops up to 500ml per can/plastic bottle (Sealed – if seal is broken container will be confiscated)

Quarter bottle of any spirit up to 250ml (bottle must be plastic)

There will also be alcohol and soft drinks available to buy on the campsite, which will be at discounted prices.

For example:

Lager and Cider will be priced at the following amounts in the campsite bar tent:

1 can = £2.50

4 cans = £8.00 (£2 per can equivalent)

24 cans (Crate) = £35.00 (£1.45 per can equivalent)

Any drinks brought in to the campsite or bought in the campsite cannot be taken into the main music arena area. There will be bars in the main music arena area.

im thinkin- because it doesnt say about the seal thing after where it says about the spirits you just need to take it in a plastic bottle and the seal can be broken- because it says about the seal straight after the beer and the soft drink. so im just gonna put it in a plastic bottle and i think that should be ok!

you obviously are allowed to take your spirits in a plastic bottle... i've filled a small fanta bottle up with vodka...

taping it up will still have the same effect as the seal broken... basically its so u dont fill a 2lr bottle up with spirits and bring it in, or mix it with a soft drink before hand. so if its broken whether its filled up or not they may confiscate it...

ive got a lemonade soft drink, but also blackcurrent cordial to mix it with, so will i be able to bring both in?

So not really worth searching for a plastic, sealed bottle of archers really. lol

personally I think its very reasonable! last year we werent allowed squat all booze, and now we get a quart of liquor and 4 litres of beer. better than a poke in the eye! and glade a couple of weeks ago there was no spirits allowed and only 10 cans for 5 days! nice one SV, this goes a little way to making up for the travesty that was tranZmission last year! not TOO bad prices in the campsite bar either.

lookin forward to this so much! sanctuary was FAT last year and its been expanded in every way this year, hopefully the crowd atmosphere will be as chilled as last time.

Dieselboy Vs Noisia, Billy Bunter & Spenno, BCUK, Nicky Blackmarket, Dave the Drummer looking forward to the most, but where the hell is Gammer?!? highlight of last year had to be Jenna & Dougal live PA aswel, hardcore arena not lookin so hot this year!

How much bottled water can we take in with us?

Posted Thu 07 Aug 2008
Can somebody please confirm the following...

a: We can or cannot combine our allowed amounts together so if there are 4 of us we can take in a litre of spirits.

b: We can or cannot put our spirits into unsealed plastic bottles (If not, please do tell us where exactly we're expected to find plastic bottled spirits in such tiny amounts)

c: How much bottled water we're allowed to bring in per person

d: Are we only allowed to take in 1litre bottles of soft drink or can it be several that amount to 1litre (My Girlfriend has bought a sealed box of Capri-Sun fruit drinks, are they gonna be a problem, if so why and how much can we bring in etc)

e: Got any more info you feel may be usefull?

Thank you for your heeeelp!

Basically if the seal is broken on anything else bar the plastic spirit bottle then you might have added spirits to the berr / alcopop bottles so its just to stop you taking in more spirits than what your allowed... hope that helps x

Idea - if your allowed to go back to your car then keep more there once you've finished your 1st lot LOL x
