#Glastonbury2020

It’s wonderful to hear that so many of you are planning to celebrate Glastonbury at home this year, and we wanted to offer you a taste of the full Festival experience to go alongside the BBC’s comprehensive coverage. Huge thanks to all of the areas and stages who’ve put together so much fantastic virtual entertainment for you to enjoy. We also know that many of you will miss being here in Pilton. But we would remind you that, under the current circumstances, Worthy Farm and its surrounding farms are completely closed to the public. Please do not attempt to visit. We hope you have a wonderful #GlastoAtHome experience and we can’t wait to welcome you back here in 2021. Michael & Emily
