The Glastonbury Festival, created in 1970 and drawing over 250,000 people a year, is like stepping into a magical wonderland where music, art, and good vibes come together in the heart of the English countryside.
Created by Michael Eavis on his farm in Pilton, Somerset, England, the humble gathering would evolve into something truly extraordinary. Glastonbury, or Glasto, is a five-day extravaganza that celebrates music, creativity, and community, including big-name headliners from a diverse lineup with genres ranging from rock, pop, and indie to electronic, folk, and world music. Attendees dance to their favorite bands, discover new artists, and lose themselves in the rhythm and melodies that fill the air.
In addition to music, the sprawling green fields transform into a colorful tapestry of tents, stages, and art installations. Attendees explore various themed areas, from the iconic Pyramid Stage (the festival's centerpiece) to the intimate acoustic performances in the legendary Stone Circle. Wander through the bustling markets filled with unique crafts, clothes, and delicious global food. Circus acts, theater performances, poetry readings, and even a dedicated Kidz Field for the little ones round out the electric atmosphere.
Over the years, Glastonbury has hosted some of the greatest artists of all time, including legends like David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Radiohead, and Beyoncé. Tickets sell out in a matter of minutes!
Glastonbury, in addition to music and art, focuses on social and environmental causes, actively promoting sustainability and green initiatives through "Green Fields" focused on eco-friendly living, renewable energy, and holistic well-being.
The Glastonbury Festival is an experience where new friendships are forged, dreams come alive, and music reigns supreme.
PLEASE NOTE:
Treat all televised and venue-specific events (sporting, concerts, trade shows, etc.) as estimated. Several factors can cause an event to move dates at the last minute, including weather, strikes, natural disasters, political upheaval, conflicting programming, pandemics, and current events. Because of this, always verify the event with the promotor before committing resources. LEEP often estimates dates based on the previous year's schedules, as the final dates are only a few months, weeks, or days before the event. If the date is known to be estimated, you will see an (est) following the date in the title.
