The mum was attempting to enter Creamfields festival in Cheshire in August 2023 with the secret stash of drugs.
Sian Bullock, 35, admitted to police she had 64 MDMA tablets - worth up to £630 - hidden inside two Kinder Egg containers tucked inside her body.
Ms Bullock claimed she didn't know what the drugs were but she claimed she had purchased them for 'personal use'.
She plead guilty to possession with intent to supply class A drugs and was sentenced to three years in prison, according to Cheshire Constabulary.
After Ms Bullock's sentencing, Police Constable Lisa Green said: "Every year, we and the Creamfields events and security teams do our utmost to ensure that everyone attending the festival can have a safe and enjoyable time, and for the most part festivalgoers have respected the laws.
"Bullock will have no doubt been aware of these laws and the restrictions at Creamfields and would have had ample opportunity to re-think her actions before it was too late, with amnesty bins and surrender points placed at all festival entries, but she decided to run the risk – which did not pay off.
"As a result of her selfish actions that day, she is now behind bars and her four children will now be without their mother for a considerable period of time.
"Anyone who, like Bullock, decides to risk bringing illegal drugs into Cheshire should seriously reconsider their choices, as we will always take swift and robust action, and they will be dealt with to the full extent of the law."
The news comes as a British former air stewardess, 21, has been accused of being a 'drugs mule', speaking from behind bars to reveal what life is like in the 'hellhole' prison in Sri Lanka.
Charlotte May Lee, 21, is potentially facing years in jail after allegedly being caught with £1.2 million worth of cannabis.
The former air stewardess claims she has been 'set up'.
Charlotte, from Coulsdon, south London, was arrested in Sri Lanka's capital of Colombo last week.
Police reportedly found '46kg' of 'Kush' - a synthetic strain of cannabis - in Ms Lee's suitcase.
She had just arrived in Sri Lanka on a flight from Bangkok when she was arrested at Bandaranaike Airport and transported to custody last Monday.
Ms Lee is being held in Negombo Prison, north of Colombo.
Meanwhile, fellow Brit Bella May Culley, 18, is being held in a prison in Tbilisi, Georgia, where she is accused of 'drugs smuggling'.
Ms Culley vanished in Thailand before turning up in Georgia where she potentially faces life in jail after allegedly importing cannabis.
Ms Culley was arrested on suspicion of smuggling 30 pounds of cannabis, and is charged with illegally buying, possessing and importing a large quantity of drugs.
