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.

You may not bring in drinks if you are coming only for the Saturday.

i'm taking a bottle of spirit (in glass) but buying a cheap bottle of drinking water from tesco (bout 15p) i'm then gunna stand infront of the security and pour the water away and fill said bottle with my chosen tipple..... long winded i know but i cant see any other way around it....

remeber SV have said we can combine our allowance, so if there is 4 of you then bring in a ltr.... you dont need to take in 4 250ml bottles
