Hey all - I'm heading to Download on the Wednesday as part of the Hotbox team! Great line up! Agreed.
Going alone - bought two tickets originally, but my partner isn't able to make it now, so thought I'd volunteer instead - keep me busy!
Is anyone driving from London? I'm willing to chip in for car sharing.
All the best for now!

Hi everyone,
I would love to volunteer at Download Festival but I live in Belfast and have no car. So my question, though I guess it's rather unlikely: Is there anyone from Belfast volunteering this year?
Also I wonder if travel expenses are being refunded for volunteers?
Thank you!

Hey from what i remember last year the supermarket is a little bit of a walk away however people were always driving there and offering out lifts for other people who needed to go
Hi guys! Food-related question from an Italian..I guess clichés are true! Ahah
Since I'll be flying to download, I won't be able to bring any cooking utensils or stoves. So I was wondering: do you know if there's a supermarket within walking distance and if there is the possibility of borrowing/renting tools? Not looking for big fancy meals, just "survival" food!

Hey everyone! So I saw many people looking for lifts from London and just wanted to let you know East Midlands Trains have tickets for £11 St Pancras - East Midlands Parkway (then there's a shuttle to EMA, shouldn't be more than £7). It's cheap and you can get to Donington is about 2 hours! Hope it helps!
