Surviving a festival is a delicate operation. Keeping yourself fed, watered and having fun in the midst of so much mud, music and temptation is no mean feat. And let’s be honest: when it goes wrong at a festival, it can go spectacularly wrong.
We want to hear your best festival disaster stories. Ever found yourself stark naked after your clothes got stolen from the showers? Missed your favourite band after taking directions from a man on acid? Had a terrible encounter with a portaloo? Can you top these?

We’ll be collating the best ones for our festival special.
