Save money and volunteer at a festival - get in free for one night shift or 10 - 15 hours of duties such as stewarding, working behind a bar or in a cafe, doing stage duties or security. Meet new people, learn new skills and put something back - some festival volunteers support a charity such as Oxfam. You also often get your own superior camping facilities and free refreshments. Look out for 'volunteer' or 'stewards' links on official festival websites and plan ahead, especially for more popular festivals, such as Glastonbury.
