Here's one "very excited Irish bunch" on their way to Worthy Farm.
Hello to Jules , Claire, Lizzy, Philippa and BabyGirl (Eoin). Safe journey!
Raena and Greg are at their first Glastonbury and have recently got married.
So the big question - is this your honeymoon?
Have a great time.
Dylan and Michael are on their way to Glastonbury from London. And Michael has had a very important job.... helping the driver hand out the tickets. That is one big responsibility!
They WhatsApped us to say they "couldn’t be more excited!"
Safe journey and have loads of fun.
Oh no Bobby!
He's broken down next to the A303 on the way to the festival.
"Been sat roadside since 8am waiting for recovery, Hoping we get there today!"
We've got our fingers crossed for you, Bobby. Good luck!
Eden, Chloe, Lauren and Lucy have made it to Worthy Farm after a 4am start in London.
They almost made it - but then a disaster!
"Broke my trolley as soon as i arrived but someone was selling bolts for 50p so i was saved so excited to be here!"
Well done on getting your tent up. Have a great time!
Glastonbury Festival superfan Andy Bennett share tips on what to pack
If you're planning to travel down on Thursday, this post is for you.
From comfortable underwear to phone essentials, superfan Andy Bennett has shared some tips on what to pack for Glastonbury Festival.
You might think that driving through the night and queuing for hours in a packed field might not exactly lend itself to glamour, but there's possibly nothing a bit of hairspray and a pin curl can't cope with.
Our reporter Ross Pollard caught up with a few determined revellers who aren't going to let a bit of humidity wreck their festival looks.
Richard is with his family on his way from Leicester - having started from Leeds earlier in the day.
Epic voyage. Hope you get there safely.

Oliver Birrell and his friends are on their way from London on a National Express coach (anyone humming the Divine Comedy yet?).
"Only 90 mins delayed so far, but still very excited!"
Thomas and Liz from Ireland have come to the festival this year with their children Tom, Katie and Molly.
They left home in Dublin on Monday evening, before stopping at Pembroke in Wales and eventually reaching the site on Tuesday.
It is Thomas' 13th time at the festival.
When asked what keeps bringing him back, he simply said: "It's pretty awesome!"
"It's really, really good. We actually brought Katie when she was a baby twice, but this is the first time we have brought them all as a family."
The couple said they'd had "absolute luck" in getting tickets so many times, but added that back in 2008 getting your hands on the tickets "wasn't as bad".
There are a few delays on train services to Castle Cary to note.
Other services from London Paddington, Yeovil, Gloucester and Paignton all running on time.
Packing everything in a wheelie bin
You might remember one festival-goer from earlier this morning who was pictured lugging a huge wheelie bin across Worthy Farm.
Our reporter Ross Pollard managed to catch up with him to find out what he was bringing in - beyond "the biggest tent you've ever seen".
Seven-year-old Aflie has been queuing up to get on site at Glastonbury.
And it's fair to say he's finding it hard to get his brother to help keep his spirits up. He spoke to our reporter Ross Pollard.
We are currently feeling very sorry for the occupants of coach 152, which is sat on the hard shoulder of the M6 with a blown tyre.
Henry and Bex asking on behalf of the passengers: "Anyone heading to Glastonbury got space for 30 people in their car?"
Would have to be a mighty big car, you two!
Absolute respect for Jack, 23, from London, who has cycled all the way from Brixton to Glastonbury to volunteer at the festival with WaterAid's Loo Crew.
"I wanted my travel to Glastonbury Festival to be as eco-friendly as possible, while giving me the opportunity to see some incredible sights like Stonehenge on the way," he said.
"I've volunteered with WaterAid for the last few years because we all need clean water.
"The Loo Crew team always has amazing energy, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into volunteering with them at Glastonbury once again this year!"

Performing in the coveted Sunday tea time legends slot on Glastonbury's Pyramid stage is Sir Rod Stewart, although the former headliner isn't 100% happy about his billing.
"I just wish they wouldn't call it the tea time slot," he said.
"That sounds like pipe and slippers, doesn't it?"
You can read the full article with Sir Rod here, or listen to it on BBC Sounds below.
