Lads take it from someone who's been to Poland many times both North and South, if the weather is hot in June mark my words you will regret big time not paying the extra tenner to have a two man tent to yourself! I've camped in Gydnia at a music festival and shared a tent with my fairer half. Absolute sweatbox, so I can only imagine what it would be like sharing with a 14 stone farting Irish lad. It could very well rain too because Poland does get a mixed bag of weather, but even then expect humidity and a sticky atmosphere. It certainly won't be cold! Was last in Poland in early June last year on business and clammy wasn't the word. The extra tenner is well worth it. 

Also, for those based in Torun, which I am myself, I'd recommend you get away from the place for 2/3 days around the matches. It's a tourist spot, nice & quaint, has a lovely square surrounded with bars, for an Irish comparison think Killarney maybe, although it's hard to compare. But you will need to get away from the place for at least 2 nights around the matches to get the full Euros experience. You won't get it by staying in Torun and just daytripping to the games. You may also go a little bit insane. The Carlsberg park is well priced as opposed to the extortionate amounts the host city hostels and hotels are looking for, which was to be expected really. For anyone that thinks the fan park is expensive or OTT, enjoy sleeping on the side of the road in Poznan & Gdansk!

You still have to pay for whatever you book as far as I can see Doyler

I'm only going for ten days with my brothers and some pals as our main holiday of the year so we're planning on living in the carlsberg sites for most of the time as we want to be in the thick of it and will spend most of the time boozed so won't really care where we sleep. The only thing i am worried about is storing valuables when out of the tent, don't want to have to heft a bag around with me at all times.

It says on the site that there's both storage for large luggage and then safes for valuables so that shouldn't be a worry...

The Gdansk site is in Sopot, a suburb of Gdansk, at the Sopot Hippodrome. It is literally on the railway station and has 24 hour trains running to gdansk which takes 15 minutes. I have no information on the Poznan site as of yet but will let you know when i do!

I'm guessing they will have it in a suitable place for transport to the ground etc in Poznan....Considering everyone staying there will be intending on going to a game it'd

make no sense to have it way out of town.

Booked 6 nights game night and night before the games. One man tent all the way it'll be sweaty enough without sharing with some other f**ker

We we're told that the Poznan camp would be right bang in the centre of Poznan - but doubt that, but should be very close all the same. Saves on taxi's and hassle.

Having done a fair few music festivals - I'll be bringing my air bed, great nights kip guaranteed. A foam mat is sh*t.
