Did you manage to get your ticket? It’s nearly time for the WONDERFUL Glastonbury festival 2016! The festival has been steadily growing for the past 43 years, is set in the stunning Somerset countryside and is one of the biggest music and arts festivals in the world.
This year’s exciting line up has been revealed with performances from Adele, Coldplay, Ellie Goulding, Muse, Foals, Earth, Wind and Fire and so many more! With different great stages throughout there is music for everyone!
The Pyramid stage, where the headline acts perform, can host crowds of up to 100,000 people – so make sure you stick close to your friends! In the evening, head over to Block 9 for a late night wonderland of huge artworks and underground nightclubs.
Other than the fabulous music, Glastonbury also has many venues for poetry, theatre, circus, films and lectures. The Healing Field (the festival’s “chill out” field) also offers the likes of yoga, meditation and tai chi.
Have a wander around and you will be spoilt with choice for food and drink. You will be able to pick up almost any cuisine and meals can range in price from budget £1 porridge to top end silver service. Frozen yoghurts were great last year especially in the hot weather. If you’re indecisive then be sure to just try a bit of everything!
So get glitzy, cover yourself in glitter and lose yourself in the music! And remember your wellies!
