I do lots of festivals (stealth) and I go dead center.  usually half way to two thirds back dead center unless it's crowded and then parking dead center right in front of soundboard is easier and less issue with crowd.

ROH Using Guns on axis and Cards DIN as insurance if there is windy conditions. I know it is a bit of a stretch but there is a nice dead spot in front of you and you are centered. Another options would be to run right next to that center rail. atleast you have a dead zone on one side of you.

I haven't taped any festivals myself, but I've definitely been to a bunch as a fan and I always try to get a good spot somewhere centered with a clear view. Sometimes the crowd can make it tricky, especially at bigger events, so I'll just hang back a bit for a better sound and sightline. Still, even if you're not right up front, you get an awesome experience just being there and soaking up the atmosphere. When I'm looking for festival tickets, I just check for listings at https://www.startickets.com because they always have a bunch of options, even for big or sold-out events. Might be worth a look if you're planning your next show.
