Seasonal discoveries
Glastonbury Festival
Glastonbury’s contemporary performing arts festival is a major fixture of British cultural life, held near Pilton in Somerset, England, during most summers. Over five days, visitors can encounter contemporary music alongside dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret and other arts, spread across major and smaller stages and performance areas. The event takes place on extensive farmland and welcomes around 200,000 people, creating a large-scale experience supported by substantial transport, water and electricity infrastructure. Many staff are unpaid volunteers, and the festival helps raise money for charities. Check the latest official dates, travel information and arrangements before planning your visit.
