Meet Marcus Haney, the man who blagged his way into 50 music festivals in four years, all while making a documentary called No Cameras Allowed.

The movie follows Haney as he travels across America and the UK, heading all the way from Coachella to Glastonbury and not shelling out a dime. How does he do it? He jumps fences, fakes tickets, blags it as a member of the press, and does whatever he has to in order to get in. Think of the movie as a definitive blagger's guide. 

In the process of filming, Haney shot Mumford and Sons and ended up being invited on tour with the group. Along the way, he also became friends with The Naked and Famous, who have supplied the soundtrack for the film. 

Watch the trailer for No Cameras Allowed below 

No Cameras Allowed had its premiere at LA's The Wiltern Theatre on Wednesday (23 July) and is expected to be generally released in the near future. This may depend on whether any of the festivals or artists featured in the film fancy crashing the party with a nice juicy lawsuit.
