For the visa start date... do they put it as the 'up to' date (either one month or one week depending on how long you're studying) or do they just pick a random date?

Because on my acceptance letter the official start date is 28th September. So if I arrived in the UK early morning of 28th August that's the first day of the festival and I wouldn't miss it (or have wasted my money). Although I have no idea What I'm going to do with my suitcases.
