We’ve just unveiled the full Glastonbury 2019 line-up featuring over 2,800 performances across 79 stages at this year’s Festival (and there are still a few more stages to come). Click here to check it out.
In a few days, EE’s official Glastonbury 2019 app will go live, allowing you to plan your personal line-up.
Block9 return to Glastonbury 2019 with an additional field, a brand-new creation – IICON, and an unrivalled line-up of music legends including LARRY HEARD, TONY HUMPHRIES, JOSH WINK and THE BLACK MADONNA.
New for 2019 the Block9 area now comprises two adjacent fields – Block9 East and Block9 West – creating a space which is three times bigger and badder and chock-full of jaw-dropping artworks, underground music and extremely alternative performance.

Arcadia have revealed the first details of their new arena at the Festival.
A primordial world of possibility, Arcadia’s Pangea takes inspiration from the prehistoric supercontinent where every land on earth was one and the future was yet to be written. The new installation is exclusive to Glastonbury and will evolve over the next five years.
A giant 50 meter high structure built from an old dock crane sits at Pangea’s heart, repurposed after decades of service at Avonmouth docks and as old as the festival itself. Doing what they do best, Arcadia have bypassed traditional set building to rescue a towering symbol of Somerset’s industrial heritage. Built to last by the pioneering engineering company Stothert and Pitt who were in the Industrial Revolution’s vanguard, the dock crane has a rich history at the crossroads of international trade. Its first life may be over, but the next is just beginning.
Arcadia have always evolved shows and installations organically over time and Pangea is set to be the biggest adventure yet – guided by crowd interaction and a collaborative momentum that harnesses skills and ideas from all walks of life.
In terms of scale and tonnage, the central crane is Arcadia’s most ambitious engineering project to date and the logistics of its installation have been eye watering, while the crane’s monumental beauty and the blank canvas it unlocks in the sky open a thrilling new dimension.

Sitting high on the hill above the site looking down towards the Tor, The Park is a treasure trove of welcoming, boundary-challenging venues and bustling bars, with a main stage hosting everything from breaking pop and indie acts to RnB and electronica, watched over by its very own rainbow-clad Ribbon Tower.
Having celebrated ten years of The Park at the last Festival, the year off has allowed The Park team to come back with many changes, new creations and locations; from the newly-updated Park Stage and Stonebridge Bar to the brand new Humblewell – a daytime wellness wonderland which at dusk morphs into late-night jazz home, The Wormhole.
There’s also a new Sculpture Garden with work from acclaimed artists alongside the pleasingly hard-to-find Rabbit Hole, The Bimble Inn, HMS Sweet Charity and The Crow’s Nest, which hosts music and the inspiring speakers of The Free University Of Glastonbury.
Find out lots more at The Park’s area page.

We’re pleased to report that the official cider supplier of Glastonbury 2019 is Mallets, whose cider is made from Somerset apples at Showerings Mill in Shepton Mallet, fewer than three miles from the Festival site. With no artificial flavours or ingredients, Mallets is gluten free and vegan accredited.
Says Michael Eavis: “Showerings have been making quality cider in Shepton Mallet for over a hundred years and we’re delighted that they’ll be supplying their cider at this year’s Festival.”
Look out for Mallets at more than 100 bars across the site at Glastonbury 2019.
The famous Pilton Palais cinema tent is back again for 2019 with another inspiring cinematic programme of exciting new releases and cult classics. But it’s not just a case of watching films – they’re also planning singalongs, live musical re-scores, film quiz parties and special guests.
From preview screenings of Jim Jarmusch’s highly anticipated zombie comedy, The Dead Don’t Die to family-friendly fun with Toy Story 4 and this year’s brilliant Oscar-winning animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, there’s movie magic here for everyone.
Check out the Palais’ line-up poster below and see their Area page for film times and synopses.
It’s that time again when we start sharing Jason Bryant’s pictures from Worthy Farm as the Festival comes together!
