Glastonbury Festival
Glastonbury Festival is a five-day music festival that takes place near Pilton, Glastonbury. Glastonbury
is a historic town in Somerset, a county in south-west England. It is also one of the largest and most
famous outdoor music and performing arts events in the world. It has more than 15 stages, each with
over 12 hours a day of live music. Every musical taste is catered for: pop, dance, jazz, folk, and music
from around the world. And if youre into music, its out of this world!
Leading pop and rock artists have headlined, alongside thousands of others appearing on smaller
stages and performance areas. Films and albums recorded at Glastonbury have been released, and the
festival receives extensive television and newspaper coverage.
But theres more than music. There are cinemas, circuses, theatre and cabaret acts. You can join a
dance or craft workshop, learn about the many charities the festival supports, dance until dawn with
drummers and didgeridoo players.
This festival is now attended by around 175,000 people, requiring extensive infrastructure in terms of
security, transport, water, and electricity supply. The majority of staff are volunteers, helping the festival
to raise millions of pounds for good causes. Some of the profits from the festival are usually donated to
charity, and organizations such as Oxfam and Greenpeace have all benefited in the past.
Glastonbury is a festival with a conscience. It showcases solar-powered hot showers, and eco-friendly
toilets. The Greenfields are a large part of the site, dedicated to educating people about the
environment and how to protect it. Also, unlike many festivals, Glastonbury is very family-friendly, with
lots of entertainment for children. The festival usually takes place on the last weekend of June, which is
the time when either an early heat wave can happen, or when rainy periods are still quite common.
General advice to visitors is to bring a good pair of wellies and a waterproof jacket.
