Big Chill
Amber Mace, 36, and husband Pete, 36, from London, are parents to Isabelle, 6, Elsa, 3, and Matilda, 1. They went to the Big Chill in Herefordshire in 2009.
“Before the girls came along, Pete and I would just rock up to a festival with a small rucksack, but now it’s two big rucksacks, duvets, a pushchair and a trolley to lug all our camping stuff.
"It’s not so much about the music these days either – it’s more about camping out with the girls and letting them run around with other kids. Just dress them in something distinctive so they’re easier to spot among their new mates.
"I take plenty of wet wipes, but I kind of like the fact that the girls get mucky and routine is forgotten for a weekend.”
Top tip:
"A portable potty will save late-night trips to the communal loos."
