Glastonbury, one of the world's most thrilling music festivals, has returned after being cancelled for two years in a row due to the coronavirus pandemic. The year, the event will take place from Wednesday 22 June to Sunday 26 June.
Glastonbury Festival always takes place on the final weekend of June. Traditionally it has a 'fallow year' every five years to allow the land to rest due to the sheer amount of guests who attend the iconic festival.
The short hiatus also prevents excessive damage to the site and allow the locals some time to rest. Despite its name, Glastonbury Festival is actually in the Somerset village of Pilton at Worthy Farm. The site is still a working farm owned by the festival’s founder Michael Eavis.
