Lineup, tickets Glastonbury Festival 2025 WHERE: Pilton, England.WHEN: from 25th to 29th June 2023 One of the most important and popular open-air festivals in the world, as well as one of the most important events in British culture. With these premises, it is difficult to remain indifferent to the Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts. Five days of music, shows, dance, cabaret, theater, and even circus arts. This, and more, is the Glastonbury Festival. An event that, today, attracts top-notch international artists, and, with a truly incredible following; both in terms of viewers and from a media point of view. Televisions, newspapers and magazines are increasingly attracted to the event. Today, the Glastonbury Festival keeps alive the traditions that inspire it. An event inspired by hippie philosophy and Free movements. That’s why men and women of all ages move, showing off the most eccentric and extravagant looks; or, with the inevitable naked torso. Ready to fill up with mud. Because, in these parts, showers are really at home. Almost all of them, wearing the inevitable “Wellington”, that is, plastic rain boots. And, of course, the guests on stage are no exception. Freedom is the watchword. The Festival also takes place in a place steeped in history and mysticism, mystery and religion. In these places, an ancient abbey stood in the Middle Ages. Where, it is said, that even the tomb of King Arthur was found, buried after a mythical voyage to the sea. And that’s not all. Crop circles and Neolithic megaliths have been found not far from these places.

Since 1970, the year of the Pilton Pop, Blues & Folk Festival (the very first edition of the event), the most important artists of the international music scene have followed one another. Bjork, Coldplay, David Bowie, Muse, Pulp, Radiohead, R.E.M., Springsteen, The Cure, U2 … making a list is really very difficult, if not impossible. PRACTICAL INFO HOW TO GET TO THE GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL The closest airport to the location is Bristol, located about 40 km away.

News

Glastonbury Festival 2018, alternatives to the event due to sabbatical year The 2017 edition of the Glastonbury Festival of Contemperary Performing Arts, has done nothing but confirm the results of previous years. Today, the Festival plays a leading role in the UK’s art and music festivals. Music, shows, dance, cabaret, theater, and even circus arts. This, and more, is the Glastonbury Festival. An event that attracts first-class international artists, and, with a truly incredible following; both in terms of viewers and from the media point of view. Televisions, newspapers and magazines are increasingly attracted to the event. A festival that, despite its scale, takes place in the small community of Pilton, a remote village not far from the most famous Glastonbury. Great artists, from the year of birth, performed on this stage: Bjork, Coldplay, David Bowie, Muse, Pulp, Radiohead, REM, Springsteen, The Cure, U2 … making a list is really very difficult, if not impossible. Unfortunately, just to ensure maximum organizational efficiency, the organizers take a break every 5 or 6 years. The last time was in 2012. Unfortunately, it also touches this year. The 2018 edition of the Glastonbury Festival will not see the light and the appointment is postponed until next year. The dates have already been known for a long time. The 2019 edition will take place from 26 to 30 June. All that remains is to wait impatiently, even if the alternatives to the Glastonbury Festival 2018 certainly are not lacking. In particular, in the United Kingdom. In Manchester, just over 300 kilometers to the north, on 09 and 10 June you can make a jump to Parklife, in a splendid and evocative setting. More than just an alternative, the sumptuous Isle of Wight Festival, which, this year, celebrates the 50th anniversary. And, for the occasion, it proposes a great lineup that includes, among other things, Depeche Mode , Liam Gallagher, The Killers, Kasabian, The Script and many others. Appointment from 21st to 24th June for the fantastic Isle Of Wight Festival 2018.
