Glasto, let’s go: The iconic festival is returning for the first time since 2019
(Picture: ES composite)It is one week until Saint Michael (Eavis) opens the doors to his back garden and invites more than 200,000 people to drink, dance and ‘just have a little lie down beside this bin for a minute’. Yes, two years later than planned, Glastonbury is finally back for its delayed 50th anniversary; you can virtually feel the vibe shift as half the capital prepares to decamp to Pilton for five days.
A lot has changed in the two-and-a-half-years since you bought the tickets — specifically, that you are two and a half years older. If you — say — bought your tickets in the fin de siècle glory of your late twenties, there is a chance that you are now — say — 32, and get a bit ‘panic attack-y’ if you miss a step of your nighttime skincare routine.
