Did you know? Set in 900 acres of countryside, Glastonbury calls itself “the largest green-field music and performing arts festival in the world”. The festival is also in the Guinness Book of World Records for some unexpected reasons, for example, juggling. Yes, juggling.
• Glastonbury Festival is the largest greenfield music and performing arts festival in the world and a template for all the festivals that have come after it. The difference is that Glastonbury has all the best aspects of being at a festival in one astonishing bundle.
• Glastonbury may have been a site of religious importance in pre-Christian times. The abbey was founded by Britons, and dates to at least the early 7th century, although later medieval Christian legend claimed that the abbey was founded by Joseph of Arimathea in the 1st century.
• British Dictionary definitions for Glastonbury
Glastonbury. / (ˈɡlæstənbərɪ, -brɪ) / noun. a town in SW England, in Somerset: remains of prehistoric lake villages; the reputed burial place of King Arthur; site of a ruined Benedictine abbey, probably the oldest in England.
Attitude is Everything
Attending Glastonbury Festival can be hard work. The mud, lack of sleep and the countless miles you have to cover to see all the stages and acts.
