Glastonbury Festival warning as motorists told to prepare for 'very busy' week

Drivers hitting the roads near Glastonbury have been urged to plan ahead as the festival returns later this week.

The event kicks off on Wednesday (June 21) as gates open for ticket holders. The major acts will be taking to the stage between Friday and Sunday, with Guns N' Roses and Elton John headlining the Pyramid Stage this year. Around 200,000 are expected to attend, with Scousers Jamie Webster and Stone also set to perform.

With huge numbers descending to Worthy Farm, National Highways has issued a warning to motorists planning on travelling to Glastonbury over the next few days. Festival goers have been told to expect "very busy" roads between Wednesday and Friday and to plan ahead with warm weather forecasted.
