Info

The sections below aim to give you all the information you need about Glastonbury Festival: from ticket information and travel advice to suggestions for what to bring. On site, during the Festival the Information Points are a veritable fount of knowledge and home of usefulness.

If you’re not sure where to begin, a lot of people seem to head for the sections on tickets, getting here and camping.

This section gives details of how to enter the the 2024 Emerging Talent Competition. Details of how to enter the 2025 Emerging Talent competition have not yet been announced.

Click here to read about the winner of the Glastonbury Festival 2024 Emerging Talent Competition, and here to read about the eight acts who played at the 2024 ETC Finals.

We’re pleased to announced details of the 2024 EMERGING TALENT COMPETITION, which is once again supported by PRS for Music and PRS Foundation.

The competition gives new UK and Ireland-based acts of any musical genre the chance to compete for a slot on one of the main stages at this year’s Festival.

The winners of the free-to-enter competition will also be awarded a £5,000 Talent Development prize from PRS Foundation to help take their songwriting and performing to the next level. Two runners-up will also each be awarded a £2,500 PRS Foundation Talent Development prize.

Acts from any musical genre can enter the 2024 competition FOR ONE WEEK ONLY using the form below from 9am Monday 29th January until 5pm Monday 5th February 2024.

To enter, acts need to supply a YouTube link to one original song, plus a link to a video of themselves performing live (even if it’s only recorded in a bedroom).

The Festival is committed to diversity and inclusivity and we welcome entries from disabled artists, who we will support to ensure they are not disadvantaged by the process.

Once the entries are in, a panel of 30 of the UK’s best music writers will help compile a longlist of 90 acts. The longlist will then be narrowed down to a shortlist of eight artists by judges including Glastonbury organisers Michael and Emily Eavis, before the live finals in Pilton decide the winning act.

Glastonbury co-organiser Emily Eavis said: “At a time when it’s not always easy for acts to get their foot on the ladder, we’re really happy to be able to offer this opportunity for rising artists. So many amazing acts have been showcased by the Emerging Talent Competition over the years – and, as with the Festival, we welcome artists from all musical genres. I’m really excited to hear what 2024’s entries bring. It’s free to enter, so it definitely can’t hurt to give it a go!”

Michelle Escoffery, President of the PRS Members’ Council, said: “Our continued partnership with Glastonbury Festival and our charity arm PRS Foundation aims to discover and champion the trailblazing homegrown talent we have in the UK and Ireland. The Emerging Talent Competition provides an exciting and unique platform for artists and bands to gain major exposure with new audiences and industry leaders, as well as the opportunity to win talent development prize money to elevate their music careers. If you’ve ever dreamed of performing at this iconic festival, now is the time. Submit your song and good luck!”

Joe Frankland, CEO, PRS Foundation said: “We’re delighted to be continuing to partner with our friends at Glastonbury Festival and PRS for Music on this fantastic opportunity for music creators to perform at the legendary Glastonbury Festival, as well as receiving vital funding support to develop their careers. The huge amount of talent this competition unearths each year is incredible – demonstrating the wealth of exciting artists coming through across the UK. We are very much looking forward to seeing which talented artists apply this year.””

The winner of the 2023 competition was the Guinea-born, Cardiff-based musician N’famady Kouyaté, who says of his experience: “Winning Glastonbury’s Emerging Talent Competition was amazing and has opened loads of doors for me. It gave me and the band a chance to perform on an amazing stage at an incredible festival. Winning also meant that I could take the next steps to further my career. If you think you’re ready to take the next steps too, I highly suggest you enter this year’s contest!”

Other recent Emerging Talent Competition finalists include Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis McLaughlin in 2022, 2020 lockdown winner R.A.E; 2019 winner Marie White, who later signed with Decca Records and Universal Publishing; rapper Flohio who won the prestigious Music Moves Europe Talent Award in 2020; R&B singer Izzy Bizu (a 2016 BRITs Critics’ Choice nominee and winner of the 2016 BBC Music Introducing Award); and singer-songwriter Declan McKenna, who won ETC 2015 and subsequently signed with Columbia and has released two successful albums. The 2017 ETC winner was singer Josh Barry, who has since toured with Rag’n’Bone Man and Gorgon City. Meanwhile, 2016 winners She Drew The Gun have received considerable acclaim for their politically-inspired psych-pop.

The cleanest ways to travel to Glastonbury Festival is by bike and public transport, and over a third of ticket-holders travel to the Festival on coaches, trains or other forms of public transport. We’d encourage you to join them, and reduce your carbon footprint.

We prioritise the sale of our coach + Festival ticket packages and our coach partner, National Express, is running services to the Festival from over 70 locations. There are also a number of local buses running services to our Festival site bus station. Click here to find out more about traveling to Glastonbury by coach.

For those arriving by train, we provide a free shuttle-bus service between the Festival site and our nearest train station at Castle Cary, that runs throughout the duration of the Festival.

If arriving by public transport is not an option, please do what you can to fill all the seats in your car and make the most of your mileage. This will go a long way to help look after our environment, reduce carbon emissions and lessen the cost of travel.

Glastonbury Festival does not endorse or facilitate travel by helicopter, except for operational purposes.

For full info of how to get to and from the Festival by your chosen mode of transport, see the dropdown menus below.

For SATNAV postcodes and info on buying car park tickets please see the By Car section

If you are driving to the Festival, you’ll need a car parking pass. If you have a pass, put the sticker on the windscreen well before you reach the Festival site.

If you’re planning on travelling to the Festival in an electric vehicle, make sure you have sufficient charge for your return trip. As a rule of thumb, if you have less than 50 miles of charge on approach to the site, you’ll need to juice up

An electric charging app like the Octopus Electroverse map and app from Octopus – who are once again partnering with the Festival and providing a wind turbine on site – can help plot your journey to the Festival and ensure you arrive with an adequately charged vehicle. The app’s route planner will plot a journey with dedicated charging stops, and you can use the Electroverse app or Electrocard (RFID) to access any of the charge points on the network.

• From Swindon: M4 then A350 onto the A361. (Sat Nav BA4 4LY).
• From the North East: A1 or M1, M25 to M3 (Junction 12), then A303 and A37. (Sat Nav TA11 7DP)
• From the Midlands: Preferably M40 and A34 to A303 and A37. (Sat Nav TA11 7DP)
• From the North West: M6, M5 to A39 (Junction 23) then A361. (Sat Nav BA6 9XE)
• From Wales: M4, M5 to A39 (as above) (Sat Nav BA6 9XE)
• For more local traffic using the A37 North or A361 East (Sat Nav BA4 4LY)

PLEASE NOTE – your satnav will not get you all the way to the Festival site but to the start of the Festival signage. Please follow the Festival signs as soon as you see those.

It is important that you approach the site on the side that you want to park. Using local roads to get to the opposite side of the site causes delays so use main roads that are well away from the site. A few extra miles travelled further away can save hours in queues near to the site. Always follow the directional signs, variable message signs and park where directed by staff.

Also please note that those who parked on the east side of the site last year had the shortest queues at the pedestrian gates and the shortest queues getting out on Monday.

Arriving/parking

GLASTONBURY 2024: Car parks will open at 9pm on the Tuesday before Glastonbury 2024, allowing Festival-goers to arrive throughout the night, when traffic volumes are low. There will, however, be no entertainment or facilities (other than toilets) in the car parks and Festival-goers will be expected to remain in their cars until the Festival gates open at 8am on Wednesday morning. Most people choose to eat locally or en-route and then arrive in the early hours.

There are four main entrances for cars, depending upon where you are coming from. Follow the P signs to get to the nearest available parking spaces. Sometimes parking staff have to fill some of the car parks further from the site before some that are closer. This is done to keep traffic moving on the public highways and keep us at peak parking capabilities for as long as possible. Parking at any time is dependent upon the traffic on the highway so you cannot plan to park in a particular parking field other than parking on the East or West side.

If you have a choice, use the Blue Route (approach from the A303, then the A37), where there is more parking space and less of a queue to get in and out of the site.

Anyone heading for the family campsite by the Acoustic field should take the Purple Route into the Festival (this is signed off the A37, follow the purple patches on the road signs).

The worst time to arrive by car is between 7am and 2pm on Wednesday. In recent years at peak times, the A39 queue to get into car parks took several hours, while it took less than an hour for those travelling on the A37.

Where you park

Most people want to park as near as possible to the pedestrian entrances (because they feel they have a lot to carry, or are old, or young, or pregnant, or ill, or just tired). Unfortunately it can't work like that. The choice you make is which side of the site to approach from, and after that it depends which field the stewards are filling at that time. It's really down to luck, whereabouts in the car park you end up.

Check where you are parked before you leave the car park

Use the cards provided by the AA to note the route colour and car park number. Trying to find a car amongst the thousands parked can be a nightmare. Look for the flag with the car park number and remember the position in the field. Some of the car parks are over half a km from site so be prepared to carry your kit a fair distance both in the car parks and on site.

Leaving and returning to the car park during the Festival

It is possible to leave the car park and return during the Festival. The cars are parked in rows with decent turning space in between the rows and the car pass works each time you enter. Most likely you will be parked in a different place on your return, though.

Top tip: book your car keys into one of the free property lockups once you go through the pedestrian gate and enter the festival site – you really don’t want to lose your car keys at the festival! You can reclaim your keys anytime if you need to return to your car.

Leaving the Festival

The worst times to leave by car are on Monday between 8am and 5pm when there can be long delays of up to 9 hours to leave the car parks. Beat the queues by leaving between 1am and 7am on Monday morning – if you can get up! The Festival is doing everything possible to reduce queuing but there is only so much capacity on the roads. If you need to be anywhere on Monday leave early – and have plenty of water and food as you will queue.

When leaving the festival please be aware that journey times on the A39 back to the M5 can be a couple of hours and on the A37 to Bristol can be up to 4 hours. Over the past few years the best route for exit has been south on the A37 to the A303 and then east to the A34 for the Midlands and North or onto the M3 for London. Also consider using the A361 towards Frome and then the A350 towards Swindon to get to the M4 from there pick up routes to the Midlands North and East.

The Festival traffic plan will direct vehicles from each parking area in different directions to reduce the volume on each route.

The Festival licence runs until 5.00pm on Monday and we are expected to have cleared the car parks by that time, if possible. From 5.00pm traders and contractors start leaving the site and all the roads are clogged. We would not have security on the car parks after 5.00pm – so please plan your exit before then.

Make sure you are OK to drive. Drug driving is not a safe trip. When did you last have a drink? You see more police around the site than you do for the rest of the year. Do not risk it! Wait until you are OK – you know it makes sense.

Electric Car Charging

Worthy Farm is a rural location with limited capacity to offer electrical vehicle charging on site – but this shouldn’t put you off from arriving in an EV!

Just as drivers of petrol or diesel cars need to have sufficient fuel for their entire journey, if you’re travelling to the Festival in an electric or hybrid vehicle, you must have sufficient battery charge for your journey.

Charge before you arrive! As a rule of thumb, if you have less than 50 miles of charge on approach to the site, you’ll need to juice up. Keep in mind that you need to have sufficient charge for your return journey, and local charge points will be busy!
Plan your vehicle charging stops. Use an electric car charging app like Electroverse from Octopus, who are once again partnering with the Festival & providing a wind turbine on site. Featuring over 650,000 chargepoints on the network, EV drivers can find, navigate and start a charging session with Electroverse – no matter where they are. The Electroverse route-mapping feature can help plot your journey to the Festival and ensure you arrive with good charge. Enter your start/end location and desired battery percentage, and the route mapper will plan a journey with dedicated charging stops. You can also follow the route directly from your electric vehicle, using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Please note the village of Pilton will be stewarded to ensure resident safety which will mean any charging points shown in the village will be unavailable to the general public.
An emergency recovery charging facility will be available at Bronze car park only, off the A361. This limited, first come, first served service run by the AA (to members and non-members), is charged at a fixed cost of £50 for up to an hour’s charge / 80% battery (whichever is sooner). Payment is by card only. Please note this service is for emergency use only and cannot be guaranteed, so please do charge before you arrive.

Breakdown

If you arrive on site and your car needs attention, get it sorted ASAP so it will be ready when you need to leave. On Monday all recovery services are very busy. A locksmith is situated by Bronze Gate if you lose your keys or lock them in your car.

For AA Service at Glastonbury, ring their dedicated Festival hotline on 0330 053 0338. Special rates apply for non-members who wish to join and receive immediate service. Also, AA staff will be in East 9, off Purple Route, and at Bronze Gate in West 32 throughout the week, and the AA’s dedicated Key Assist vehicles will be on site from Saturday.

People with disabilities

Unless you are pre-registered for the accessible car park, people with a Blue Badge should display the badge clearly next to their official festival parking ticket when entering the public car parks and Stewards will direct you to the forward parking (this may still be some distance from the gates). All festival goers needing parking will need an official parking ticket.

If you have further enquiries regarding disabled access and transport please refer to the Festival’s Access information.

Cars and climate change

CO2 is the main cause of climate change and arguably the single biggest pollution threat that humankind faces today. Road transport accounts for around 25% of Britain’s emissions. The least polluting cars emit around 100g of C02 per km, while the most polluting emit around 520g. The main ways to cut emissions are to drive less, reduce fuel use by choosing more fuel-efficient vehicles and by car-sharing wherever possible.

Traffic news

Check out the Festival website and Twitter account for the latest travel news. Once within range (about 10 miles) tune into Worthy FM on 87.7 FM – it’s good for traffic news both when you arrive and when you leave – and listen in to the morning show each day to find out what is happening on site.

Improvements

The Festival team have worked hard over the years to improve access and egress, aided by the addition of numerous roads and tracks, and changes to layouts to reduce congestion. We are still parking on farmland and will be subject to weather conditions, but going forward we have a more robust operation than we have ever had to cope with what mother nature throws at us.

The Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza concert will return on Saturday, August 3rd, 2024, with a headline performance from Keane who are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their acclaimed debut album, Hopes And Fears. Also performing in the Abbey’s historic surroundings will be the Shepton Mallet Big Band, plus special guests to be announced! The event will conclude with the traditional fireworks finale.

Tickets cost £45 for adults and £25 for children aged up to 16. Any remaining tickets will cost £50 / £30 on the gate. Glastonbury Abbey PLUS members receive a 10% discount on tickets (you will need your membership card number to purchase).

Tickets purchased online before 5pm on Wednesday 13th of December will be posted before Christmas. Tickets purchased after this date will be posted before the event. The Glastonbury Abbey shop has closed temporarily due to the abbey’s town deal piazza project. However, tickets can be purchased for Christmas from the temporary ticket office at the abbey’s temporary entrance on Magdalene Street up until 3pm on December 24th.

Camping for this years Extravaganza is now sold out.

This area of the website has been created to highlight the colourful offerings of the town of Glastonbury itself. Many wrongly assume that this pretty town, seven miles from the Festival site, will be overrun with Festival-goers during the days throughout the event. But it’s actually one of the best times to visit this ancient market town, with its famous Tor, beautiful Abbey and wide range of shops and cafés. But whatever time of year you’re in the area, the town is well worth a visit.

Here’s our guide to some of the town’s year-round highlights:

Glastonbury Tor

Known as The ‘Isle of Avalon’, Glastonbury Tor is located in the heart of Celtic mythology, and positions itself naturally and exquisitely on the eastern periphery of Glastonbury town. Following an earthquake in 1275, the original wooden church was destroyed, and the shell tower is all that remains of St. Michaels Church, which replaced the wooden church in 15th Century. This stands on the tor which is an impressive mark on the landscape of Somerset.
www.nationaltrust.org.uk/glastonbury-tor/

The Assembly Rooms

The Assembly Rooms is arguably the birthplace of the first “Glastonbury Festival”, held back in 1915. Then known as the Rural Arts Festival, Rutland Boughton crafted what was a contemporary experiment of drama and music. It somewhat paved the way for the festival we have now, certainly setting the mystical scene of what was to come. Regularly invited to the festival were T.E. Lawrence, George Bernard Shaw and Thomas Hardy. The enchanting 19th Century Somerset vibes are amplified through the beamed roof and stoned walls, making it the perfect venue for the early festivities and adding character to the events that happen today.

Glastonbury Abbey

Glastonbury Abbey is beaten in size only by its sibling in Westminster. Despite its partial destruction in Henry VIII’s dissolution of monasteries, this spectacular feat of craftsmanship is not a lost message. Stretching parallel to the High Street it is accompanied by a tranquil garden. Take a relaxing stroll amongst a formidable setting. With the earliest known documentation of it from the 8th Century, King Arthur features in the story surrounding this magnificent build, which also hosts the annual Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza concert organised by Michael Eavis.
www.glastonburyabbey.com

Glastonbury High Street

Take a leap into the cult world of crystal shops and dragon dens. Better known, every day retailers would actually look out of place amongst the scene of myth and legend. Go and explore – and, among many wonderful cafes and restaurants, look out for Gigi’s Italian at the bottom of town, which Michael Eavis says is his favourite eatery.

St. Michael’s Ley Line

The fact that Glastonbury lies on a ley line could be totally irrelevant and the town’s genuine heritage and deep mystery would still stand, but the matter of the fact is that it does! Glastonbury and the St. Michaels ley line co-exist together to enrich the value of one another. It’s a ley line that goes from St Michaels Mount to Hopton, and also passes through Avebury and Bury St. Edmunds. The May Day sunrise lines eastbound down the line.

Glastonbury Festival Office

Originally the base for the Festival within the town of Glastonbury, the office is an understated reminder of the existence of the event that is held in nearby Pilton. With many of its staff having recently moved over to new offices on Worthy Farm, this building now serves many purposes, including housing Children’s World Charity, and musical workshops for children. Located in Northload Street, it is just a very brief walk from the High Street.
Northload St, Glastonbury, BA6 9JJ.

Glastonbury Festival is the largest greenfield music and performing arts festival in the world and a template for all the festivals that have come after it. And it is simply unlike anywhere else.

The Festival takes place in a beautiful location – 900 acres in the Vale of Avalon, an area steeped in symbolism, mythology and religious traditions dating back many hundreds of years. It’s where King Arthur may be buried, where Joseph of Arimathea is said to have walked, where ley lines converge. And the site is ENORMOUS – more than a mile and a half across, with a perimeter of about eight and a half miles.

It’s like going to another country; a thrilling and vibrant cultural melting-pot and inspirational Brigadoon that appears every year or so. Coming to Glastonbury involves a bit of travel, and probably a queue to get in but, when you get past these impediments, you enter a huge tented city, a mini-state under canvas. British law still applies, but the rules of society are a bit different, a little bit freer. Everyone is here to have a wild time in their own way.

Each area across the Festival site has its own unique character. There are the bustling main-act arenas of Pyramid and Other stages; the festival within a festival, up at The Park; the sylvan enchantment of The Wood and its vibrant Woodies stage; and the phenomenal builds of Shangri-La, The Common, Silver Hayes and Block 9. Glastonbury is an audio/visual Wonderland welcoming exploration.

There’re also family oriented areas like the Kidzfield and the Green Kids Field, and astounding discoveries to be made in the Theatre & Circus fields. And if you’re into the more alternative aspects of festival life, you can always head up to the Field of Avalon, the Tipi Field, and the Green Fields – home to the Sacred Space and its stone circle.

Then there are the people; thousands of them in all their astonishing and splendid diversity! There is only one common characteristic of a Glastonbury-goer – they understand that Glastonbury Festival offers them more opportunity than any other to have the best weekend of the year or even of a life-time, and they are determined to have it! You’ll meet all kinds of people, of all ages, backgrounds, nationalities, lifestyles, faiths, concepts of fashion (or lack of it) and musical taste. Some will undoubtedly wear silly hats or buy shirts that they’ll never wear again… until next year, that is. The overall vibe of the Festival is consistently mellow and friendly, even in the event of rain and all that comes with rain, a field and thousands upon thousands of tramping feet.

There will be moments when you ask yourself the inevitable: “Why can’t life always be like this?” There will be enlightenments, awakenings, surreal happenings and Damascene epiphanies. Sometimes the most wonderful things you’ll experience will have been booked well in advance – but often it will be something spontaneous, a moment converged in time and space. No two people’s Festival experience will be the same unless they’re tied together, in which case they’re probably part of a theatre company.

It’s best not to come to Glastonbury with a head full of preconceptions and a notebook full of plans of what you want to see. If there are one or two particular bands a day you really want to see, then let your day revolve around them and go with the flow. Hurrying between stages so you can tick off a list of things you feel you must see is not the best way to enjoy Glastonbury. If you can’t get a good vantage point, or aren’t enjoying a show, move on; there’ll be something else in the next field that might just change your way of seeing the world! Often, your best memories of the Festival will be of new things that have startled you with their brilliance.

The Festival’s objectives

Michael Eavis documented the following when registering the company, and it is as relevant now as it was when first written.

The Glastonbury Festival aims to encourage and stimulate youth culture from around the world in all its forms, including pop music, dance music, jazz, folk music, fringe theatre, drama, mime, circus, cinema, poetry and all the creative forms of art and design, including painting, sculpture and textile art.

A large area of the Festival (the “green” area) is set aside for complementary and alternative medicine, demonstrations and displays of environmentally-friendly technologies and techniques, various forms of religious expression, and a forum for debating environmental, social and moral issues.

The Festival organises market places, selling an enormous range of wares, and which place particular emphasis on offering high quality prepared food and hand-made goods, including clothes and jewellery.

In addition to this, the company distributes large amounts of money to Greenpeace, Oxfam, Water Aid and other humanitarian causes which enhance the fabric of our society. In the running of the event the Festival deliberately employs the services of these organisations, increasing the amounts they can raise towards their objectives.

Paid work

The number of people employed full-time directly by the Festival is relatively small, and largely in administrative roles, including:

Finance, licensing, customer services, and general administration
Infrastructure, procurement & coordination of temporary infrastructure, site design & layout (AutoCAD knowledge preferable)
Site, sanitation, environmental and ground works

Please note, the Festival offices are in rural Somerset, with limited public transport infrastructure outside of the Festival period.

Jobs in the offices can last from a couple of weeks to longer term, depending on the job.

For temporary staff, most departments begin recruiting from the late Autumn, into the early New Year, for positions commencing in the Spring. Please keep an eye on the vacancies section below for updates. Roles will be advertised on our website in the first instance.

Please bear in mind that none of these jobs are an easy way into the Festival: they involve hard work and not much time off over the Festival period. Festival or events experience can be beneficial, but it’s not essential!

In order to work for Glastonbury Festival you must have the Right to Work in the UK. Individuals from outside the UK must be in possession of a work permit to allow them to take up employment. For more information please visit the Government’s Working in the UK website. As most roles are for a short period, our ability to gain a UK work permit for potential employees from outside the UK is extremely limited.

Working for your ticket

There are opportunities to work for different organisations and charities providing services for the Festival.

In some cases you would be required to pay for the ticket in advance, and would be reimbursed after completing the required hours.

PLEASE DO NOT RISK FALLING VICTIM TO FRAUD.

Introduction

Since it began as a small-scale event on a dairy farm in 1970, Glastonbury has become one of the world’s biggest festivals. Each year, more than 140,000 ticket-holders enjoy entertainment at over 100 stages across five days, in the heart of Somerset. You can read a brief introduction to the Festival here.

The ethos of Glastonbury Festival has not veered from the Michael Eavis’ founding objectives when first establishing the company. A summary of each Festival can be found in our History section.

Impact

From the very beginning, the aim of Glastonbury was to bring people together and celebrate diversity in culture, and it has since become a place of joy and discovery for those who attend. But the Festival has also proven to have a positive impact beyond the arts.

Environmental sustainability has been a driving force for the Festival – the Festival’s Green Fields area has always been run on solar and wind power – and after years of work and incremental increases in the use of sustainable power, in 2023 Glastonbury Festival was run entirely on renewable energy and renewable fuel. The Festival’s guiding principles of sustainability also inspired the Festival to ban the sale of single-use plastic drinks bottles across the Festival site in 2019.

To find out more about Sustainability at Glastonbury, please read our Impact Summary.

Every year, the Festival makes substantial payments to a range of charitable causes and campaigns. To read more about the Festival’s charitable contributions, please read our Worthy Causes page.

Glastonbury Festival has also shown to have a beneficial influence on both the immediate local economy and the wider economic environment. For more information please read our 2023 Economic Impact Summary below. Our previous economic impact survey, conducted in 2007, is also available below

Since it began as a small-scale event on a dairy farm in 1970, Glastonbury has become one of the world’s biggest festivals. In 2023, more than 140,000 ticket-holders enjoyed entertainment at over 100 stages across five days, in the heart of Somerset. Celebrating diversity in culture, Glastonbury has become a place of joy and discovery for attendees, but the Festival has also proven to have a positive influence beyond the arts.

In 2023 we commissioned a report to measure the Festival’s economic impact, in both the immediate local economy and the wider economic environment. The report, carried out by research specialists Fourth Street, found Glastonbury Festival to have a significant positive economic impact both nationally and in Somerset, generating around £168 million of income for UK businesses including £32 million for businesses based in Somerset.

What Glastonbury Festival spends

The total cost of putting on the 2023 Glastonbury Festival was approximately £62 million, paid across 922 organisations providing services to the Festival. Included in this are the materials and infrastructure that bring the fields to life; all the crew creating the build and managing the stages; and costs for the staff that work for the Festival throughout the year.

Of this £62 million spent by the Festival, just under £12 million was paid to 258 companies in Somerset.

What Glastonbury Festival-goers spend

Glastonbury Festival draws its audience from all over the UK and around the world. In 2023, Festival-goers were estimated to have spent £1.6 million in the wider Somerset community: a quarter of this went to businesses providing food and drink, while 50 percent of it was spent in local shops and supermarkets for provisions and supplies for the Festival.

Income generated for others

The Festival also helps generate income for other businesses outside of the Festival site – both in the local area and elsewhere. Around 900 Festival-goers stayed in local hotels and B&Bs during the Festival, spending a total in the region of £450,000. Some Festival-goers also stayed in hotels and B&Bs on the journey to and from the Festival.

Neighbouring landowners were also able to generate income, either from operating accommodation themselves in the form of B&Bs or campsites unaffiliated to the Festival, or renting their land to others to operate from. An estimated 4,000 Festival-goers stayed in privately-run, offsite campsites adjoining the Festival site, spending in the region of £6.5 million.

As well as Festival-goers, crew working for Glastonbury were estimated to have spent about £900,000 with local businesses outside the Festival during their time spent on site. Those volunteering at the Festival, are estimated to have spent a further £500,000 with local businesses.

Jobs created by Glastonbury

The sheer size, breadth and temporary nature of the Festival means it is reliant on an array of professionals to bring it to fruition. The Festival directly and indirectly sustains a broad range of jobs and industries, including IT services and plumbing, signwriting and caravan rentals, security and catering, among many others. In 2023, Glastonbury Festival sustained over 1,100 UK jobs in total, 325 of which were based in Somerset.

Of these, the Festival directly paid for work itself equivalent to around 255 full time jobs. Around 80 people worked for the Festival office in planning and administration (the equivalent of 55 full time jobs), most of whom live locally to the Festival.

In total, an additional 1,750 people worked directly for Glastonbury Festival in 2023, over shorter periods of time. These roles made up the equivalent of 200 full time jobs. Those who are self-employed estimated that on average, Glastonbury Festival accounted for 16% of their annual earnings. However, some obtain a much larger part of their annual earnings from the Festival.

Jobs created by Glastonbury for others / traders

Glastonbury Festival is more than just an arts festival; it is a food festival; a vibrant market – selling everything from bucket hats to handcrafted jewellery; and a craft and wellbeing centre, offering everything from massages to stone masonry workshops. The Festival provides many opportunities for external traders and in 2023 it featured 918 trading stalls, including 56 units which provided food and drink to crew. With a handful of exceptions, all stalls were operated by independent businesses, and staffed by 9,500 people working for around 314,000 hours – the equivalent to 170 full time jobs.

Contribution of volunteers

An incredible bank of volunteers donate their time while providing essential services to Glastonbury Festival: from stewarding and loo clean-up teams, to property lock-ups and campsite crew. These volunteers raised much needed funds for organisations including Friends of the Earth, Samaritans, Diverse UK, Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Charity, Cancer Research UK as well as many local schools, community organisations, hospices, carnival clubs, sports clubs and other groups.

In 2023, there were more than 10,000 volunteers at Glastonbury Festival – giving around 240,000 hours of their time for over 200 not-for-profit groups. Of these, 3,511 stewards raised £700,000 in total for their chosen organisations. Oxfam and Water Aid provided 2,500 and 700 volunteers on similar terms.

Over 30 percent of those volunteering at Glastonbury Festival raised funds for organisations within the area.

Charitable Donations / social responsibility

In 2023, Glastonbury Festival was thrilled to have made payments of over £3.7m to a range of incredible charitable causes and campaigns. It is thanks to those who support the Festival that we have been able to make these donations to help those facing challenges both in the UK and across the world. In addition to this £3.7m, the Festival’s raffle of Glastonbury tickets for Oxfam’s Crowdfunder DEC Appeal raised over £1m towards the Syria-Turkey Earthquake response, while an online auction of tickets raised £116,000 for the Trussell Trust.

The Festival has also contributed to its host village of Pilton by building 52 social housing homes and upgrading the village playing fields to include a new pavilion, club house, skate park and tennis courts. The Festival also helped fund the rebuilding of the Pilton Club and Village hall, as well as the restoration of the historic Tithe Barn.

Methodology of the report

The report was based on a survey of 643 Festival-goers – interviewed face-to-face at the 2023 Festival – plus an online survey of 354 Festival staff and 148 volunteers, as well as 30 telephone interviews with local businesses.

A 2007 survey revealed that Glastonbury Festival impacts on the worldwide economy to the tune of more than £73million.

The figure was one of dozens featured in a report by Mendip District Council on the economic impact of the Somerset event.

This was the first study of its kind to be undertaken on the Festival, which was carried out by Bristol-based Baker Associates.

Its aim was to fully understand the economic effects of Glastonbury and help to support the planning of future years.

John Baker from Baker Associates said: "We were commissioned by Mendip District Council and Glastonbury Festivals to carry out the study, which is one of the first to focus on the overall economic impact of the Festival, and to improve understanding of its impacts on various areas of the local and regional economy. The study also reports on other areas that are linked to its impact on the economy, and how these issues can be looked at in the future to further build on the economic benefits that the Glastonbury Festival could bring to Mendip."

The report gives the first detailed insight into the Festival - the largest of its kind in the UK - including the £73m gross impact it has on the UK and international economies.

The following points are just an insight into some of the figures revealed through the report:

A crowd of 177,500 people attended the Glastonbury Festival in 2007, with an average spend per person of £293.24.
Total spending at the Festival site in Pilton by revellers and traders was about £25.6million, and off-site spend was about £26.5million, giving a total spend of about £52million directly linked to the Festival.
Estimated spending by Glastonbury Festivals associated with staging the 2007 Festival was £21.2million (over the period November 2006 to October 2007).
Therefore the gross spend linked to the 2007 Glastonbury Festivals (including the Glastonbury Extravaganza and the Equinox 'Pilton' Party) was more than £73million.

Speaking at the press conference, held in Pilton's Working Men's Club, Cllr Harvey Siggs, leader of Mendip District Council, said: "We noticed in the year that we didn't have a Festival that there was an economic impact in the area. So we decided last year to quantify the benefits. The report shows clearly the ripple effect from the local area right around the country."

Dick Vernon, Trading Manager for Glastonbury Festival, added: "We've always said that the Festival had a big economic impact but we've never been able to prove it. Now we have an independent group who have come up with some staggering figures."

Summing up proceedings, Michael Eavis said: "You only have to drive around Pilton to see the benefits. We've spent £880,000 on the village hall and built 18 houses, and we'd like to do a lot more."

A note from Michael Eavis

Glastonbury Festival was founded in 1970, long before people began to become concerned about climate change. Yet even then all the milk, the cider and the straw came from the farm. We were green then, and we are just as green now.

These days, of course, everyone has woken up to the fact that we really have to do something about protecting the environment and reducing our impact on it. As a Festival we’ve been exploring new ideas of how to lessen our toll on the land for as long as I can remember. As a Festival we’ve always tried to take an ecologically thoughtful approach to the way we do things, which we always hoped would inspire people.

My family have farmed this land for generations – having walked here with their cows from Dorset to set up at Park Farm in the 1860s. Looking after the fields, hedges and livestock has always been our number one concern. And today, our big campaign remains ‘Love Worthy Farm – Leave No Trace’. We are striving to leave as little an imprint on the land here as we possibly can. For me, Worthy Farm is what life here is all about.

Glastonbury Festival has always been the first to host alternative solutions to environmental concerns, and over time we’ve watched as those alternatives have become mainstream. In fact, for me, one of the greatest benefits of Glastonbury Festival has been giving people the chance to open their eyes to something better, even if it is only for one weekend in the year.

We hope that we can continue to lead the charge in sustainable living by making Glastonbury Festival as green as we are able to and by spreading the word to Festival-goers about what will really make a difference to the environment. We continue to work as hard as we can on the practical things: from encouraging people to travel by public transport to promoting some great new initiatives on waste reduction and pursuing more efficient ways of powering the Festival.

Today, just as much as in 1970, we have to work hard on our message. Glastonbury Festival is a Midsummer celebration of life and joy, but we must not lose sight of our undertaking to achieve the best possible balance of nature and resources.

Michael Eavis
Worthy Farm

From the very beginning, Glastonbury Festival was established to celebrate music, culture and togetherness – inspiring a respect for both our environment and each other. This passion for the arts and all people still underpins the Festival today, and we continue to strive towards a more vibrant, inclusive and sustainable future for all.

We like to think of Glastonbury Festival as a laboratory for change. Guided by principles of environmental responsibility and social equality, we are working to implement long-lasting sustainable practices and help promote a diverse, culturally rich, inclusive and accepting world both at Glastonbury Festival and beyond our gates.

Sustainability & Environmental impact

Energy & Decarbonisation
Sustainability and respect for our environment has always been at the heart of Glastonbury Festival. Since 1984 – and the inception of the Green Fields – the Festival has been using renewable energy for power. Right from the start, all stages in the Green Fields were run on hybrid renewables (solar and/or wind) and battery systems.

Over the last 40 years, we have worked hard to extend this fossil fuel-free standard across the entire event, and since 2023, Glastonbury Festival has been powered entirely by sustainable renewable, virgin palm oil-free HVO fuel (made from bio-waste materials) and renewable energy – either from lower impact, fossil fuel-free electricity or run on solar photovoltaic and battery hybrid systems – with no reliance on diesel or any other fossil fuel for power anywhere on site at Glastonbury.

Clean energy from the Festival’s own 250kWp solar PV array, as well as our anaerobic digester and 125kVA biogas plant power, provide energy for Festival offices and some production areas as well as helping to charge some battery systems. While a temporary 300kWh wind turbine powers food stalls in the Williams Green market area during the Festival.

As well as these efforts, we continue to work hard to encourage our Festival-goers to consider their environmental footprint and use public transport to travel to Glastonbury. Each year, over 65,000 people choose to arrive by coach, train or bicycle, dramatically reducing the potential carbon footprint from transport. In 2024, we introduced a travel carbon calculator to help illustrate the impact different modes of transport – and occupancy – have on carbon emissions, as a way of further inspiring sustainable travel choices both for travel to and from the Festival, and hopefully beyond it.

Decarbonisation continues to remain a priority for Glastonbury Festival. As part of the Festival’s commitment to further reduce CO2e emissions, the number and size of HVO-powered generators has been steadily decreasing over the years. Working closely with the Festival’s temporary power contractor and energy consultants, we have been focusing on improving generator energy efficiency as well as steadily increasing the amount of renewables and batteries used on site, which help to further reduce HVO fuel use.

Over the years, Glastonbury has also been investing in grid-connected mains power with a view to taking certain areas of the Festival off generators altogether. These upgrades and advancements to mains connectivity – which is supplied by a combination of Worthy Farm’s own on-site solar and biogas plant and a 100% renewable energy tariff – have completely removed the need for generators and fuel in various locations, and work continues to connect other areas of the site to the same renewables-powered mains grid energy.

Through this work to expand our use of renewable energy, encourage greener travel among our Festival-goers and our dedication to embracing technological innovations to help further reduce our CO2e emissions, we aim to create a Festival that is as sustainable as possible.

Waste & Recycling
In order to reduce plastic consumption, in 2019 Glastonbury banned the sale of single-use plastic bottles which has reduced the number of items of disposable plastic on site by millions. Glastonbury continues to address these issues by only allowing the sale of crisps in compostable packets, which was introduced in 2022, and banning the sale of disposable vapes in 2023.

Glastonbury Festival continues to work conscientiously to reduce non-recyclable waste and promote more sustainable alternatives. Only compostable or reusable plates, cutlery and drinking straws are allowed to be used as serveware and all cutlery used by market stalls must be made from FSC-assured wood. Reusable cutlery, plates and cups are used in crew catering wherever possible.

The Festival prioritises the use of local, trusted suppliers, sourcing materials from renewable sources, reducing the use of new materials and aims to avoid waste through reuse and recycling wherever possible.

Our own onsite recycling plant is the country’s largest events-run facility and ensures we can hand-separate our own waste for single stream recycling. Our 1,200 eco-friendly compost toilets onsite produce tonnes of rich horticultural compost every year. And Glastonbury Festival’s famous long drop toilets use no compromising chemicals, so waste can be easily treated at regular sewage works.

Strong communications onsite and across the Festival’s website and social channels encourage waste-awareness and promote the message “Love the Farm, Leave No Trace”. Over the last few years we have seen a dramatic reduction in the amount of camping equipment left behind with over 98% of tents taken home from the last three events.

Water & Biodiversity
Based in rural Somerset, the Glastonbury site has set aside reserves and protected areas across the Festival to help ensure that habitats and wildlife are looked after. Since 2000, we have planted over 10,000 native trees and hedge plants to support and enhance the local environment. The Festival also monitor the health of local ecology and control the risk of damage to local ecosystems. During the Festival and after it, teams of litter pickers hand-collect litter before the land is returned to farming use.

All our water is from our mains water supply from Bristol Water, and is the same quality as tap water at home. We encourage all Festival-goers to bring a reusable water bottle and refill for free at more than 800 water points across the site. Auto shut-off fixtures on taps help to reduce water wastage.

During the Festival and in the weeks that follow, we carry out continuous monitoring of the water in the rivers and streams that run through the site to ensure that the water quality remains high for the welfare of local wildlife. Peeing on the land is forbidden and teams of Love The Farm stewards patrol the Festival site to encourage the use of over 700 meters of urinals, 2,000 longdrop toilets and 1,200 compost loos.

Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

Equality, diversity and inclusion have been central to the ethos of the Festival since the start. Through the Worthy Pledge – which all ticket-holders and staff agree to uphold – all those who work for or come to Glastonbury Festival are expected to ‘treat the fields and the people in them with kindness and respect’. Discrimination on the grounds of heritage, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender or gender identity is not tolerated.

Our onsite Access team and facilities cater to all needs and include DeafZone services and BSL translators for D/deaf ticket-holders, accessibility PAs, viewing platforms, shortcut routes for wheelchair users, sensory zones, Worthy Rest hubs, accessible toilets and a dedicated campsite/campervan field, to support those with additional requirements.

Our Equality, Diversity & Inclusion initiatives include bias awareness training for all staff, a bespoke Area Organisers group focussed on Equality, Diversity & Inclusion, and a ring-fenced £50k fund for Equality, Diversity & Inclusion projects ranging from work with traveller communities, black and minority youth groups, female, non-binary and transgender people and those from a low socio-economic background.

These initiatives include a Black2Nature visit – helping to connect Visibly Minority Ethnic (VME) families and children with the natural world; Festival Lab work experience initiatives; Green Fields work opportunities for ethnic minority applicants and other projects which help to change festival culture, create work opportunities for collectives and individuals and build bridges between those who would not be able to, or have not had access to working at festivals previously.

Onsite, there are areas dedicated to celebrating and supporting communities such as Sistxrhood in Shangri-la and Atchin-Tan. Areas of the Festival also work with organisations such as Blkbrd Collective, a group of artists/educators with lived experience of migration; Trans Pride, representing the intersectional trans community; and Drag Syndrome, a performance artist collective with Down Syndrome, to help give diverse, marginal groups a mainstream voice.

We recognise that we are at the beginning of an ongoing journey and we continue to learn and develop year on year. We have a dedicated team that work on supporting the Equality, Diversity & Inclusion projects and providing advice on each step of the process.

Fairtrade
Over the years Glastonbury has supported and promoted sustainability across the site. We have encouraged our suppliers to obtain their own sustainable accreditation such as Fairtrade and Fairwear and take this into consideration in our procurement process. Our Wholesalers and Traders are assessed on their commitment to their own sustainability and we prioritise those who are able to demonstrate this commitment by obtaining certification such as Fairtrade, Red Tractor, RSPCA Freedom Food, MSC (Fish). Fairwear, GOTS, OCS and RJC (jewellery) and BCorp. We also prioritise local produce and products. All coffee, tea and drinking chocolate sold on site is Fairtrade and sugar must be Fairtrade or British.

Engagement
Environmental activism and support for humanitarian causes have always been intrinsic to Glastonbury Festival. From our endorsement of CND in the 1980s and support for the traveller community during that decade, we have used our influence and worked to engage the wider public in causes we believe in, helping to promote an ecologically conscious, culturally rich and inclusive world both at Glastonbury Festival and beyond our gates.

Charities, fundraising & positive impact

Every year we are pleased to be able to make payments of over £2m to charities including our partners Oxfam, WaterAid and Greenpeace, as well as other international, national and local projects and causes. By supporting and providing a global platform for our charity partners – Oxfam, Greenpeace and Water Aid – we strive to raise awareness of their campaigns for a cleaner, fairer, better world and aim to inspire long-lasting sustainable practices that promote diversity, cultural awareness and inclusivity.

In 2023, Glastonbury Festival was thrilled to have made payments of over £3.7m to a range of incredible charitable causes and campaigns. It is thanks to your support for the Festival that we have been able to make these donations to help those facing challenges both in the UK and across the world. In addition to this £3.7m, thank you to everyone who donated to the Oxfam Crowdfunder DEC Appeal which raised over £1m towards the Syria-Turkey Earthquake response, and our online auction raised £116,000 for the Trussell Trust.

We’d like to thank all our Festival-goers, crew and volunteers, without whom it wouldn’t have been possible to make these donations and support these good causes. Please click here to find out about some of the great charities and organisations we are proud to have been able to help in 2023.

To read Glastonbury Festival’s 2023 Economic Impact Summary, please click here.

With our history firmly rooted in activism and our profound connection with our rural heritage, all of us at Glastonbury Festival are passionately committed to creating a cleaner, more fair, sustainable future for all.

Here are a few things we're proud to have achieved on our journey so far. We will continue to embrace new, innovative technology to help us further reduce our impact on our environment and hope we can also inspire more sustainable changes in the world we live in.

Here's how you can help us to protect our environment and the future of the Festival.

Please use the toilets provided. Peeing on the land or in the rivers contaminates the local water supply, killing wildlife and seriously compromises the future of the Festival.
Please use our recycling bins. It is not okay to drop litter on the ground. Help us by placing your waste into the correct recycling bins.
Please only use what you need. If every Festival-goer used four napkins instead of one, there would be an extra 450,000 napkins wasted unnecessarily.
Take your tent and equipment home with you. Nothing should be considered disposable so please only bring equipment that is built to last.
Please use public transport, cycle or car-share to Glastonbury Festival. Car exhaust is still the greatest contributor to global climate change. Join the 40 percent of Festival-goers that travel to the Festival by public transport and help to reduce our carbon footprint.
Please bring a reusable water bottle. These can be filled for free at all of our taps and WaterAid kiosks across the Festival site.
Please do not bring environmentally damaging items such as disposable vapes or body glitter – even biodegradable body glitter will not properly breakdown without being heat-treated.
Please use water responsibly. Turn off taps and help us use water efficiently.
Please do not bring in glass or other prohibited items such as paper lanterns. They cause fires and harm the cattle that live on the land.

Beyond the farm

Our commitment to protect our environment – to use its resources responsibly and to reduce our ecological footprint – also extends beyond the physical boundaries of the Festival. Over the last few decades, we’ve donated millions of pounds to our partners at Greenpeace, Oxfam and WaterAid, who all do invaluable work to meet the urgent needs of our planet. Those donations wouldn’t be possible without all of you who buy our tickets, and the support of the thousands of volunteers who give their time to these good causes at the Festival.

Please take a moment to read through our energy, waste and ecological policies below and learn how we are working towards a more sustainable future, and the vital role you can play in helping us to achieve that.

Love the Farm, leave no trace.

Waste policy

‘Love the Farm, leave no trace’, is central to Glastonbury Festival’s philosophy. We are passionate about reducing rubbish sent to landfill and ask Festival-goers to bring only what they need and leave nothing behind. With over 200,000 people on the land during the Festival, it’s very important to minimise the enormous impact this makeshift city has on the countryside on which it stands.

Since 2019, over 98% of all tents have been taken home after each Festival. We are very grateful to our Festival-goers for their continuing respect for the land.

Our work so far:

Waste prevention and recycling.

Our own on-site recycling plant is the country’s largest events-run facility and ensures we can hand-separate our own waste for single stream recycling.
From 2019, single-use plastic drinks bottles have not been available to purchase at Glastonbury Festival. Single-use plastic drinks bottles are also no longer supplied or available in any of the Festival’s backstage, production, catering and dressing room areas.
In a determined drive to reduce non-recyclable waste and promote more sustainable alternatives, the sale of disposable vapes are also banned on-site; and all crisps are sold in compostable packaging.
We only allow compostable or reusable plates and cutlery – including drinking straws. All cutlery used by market stalls must be made from FSC-assured wood.
Disposable single-serving sachets, like those used for sauces or sugar, are not supplied or available anywhere on-site.
All cans, glass, paper, wood and organic waste collected from the Festival’s 15,000 bins are hand-separated and processed at our on-site recycling facility.
In 2019 Glastonbury Festival recycled over 68 tonnes of paper and card, 38 tonnes of glass, 57 tonnes of cans, 17 tonnes of plastic bottles and turned 14,000 litres of cooking oil into biofuel.
All bags used to collect compostable food waste are made of compostable cornstarch and processed into compost.
In 2019 149 tonnes of food waste were turned into compost.
We have a 1,300-strong army of recycling volunteers who contribute hugely to the clean-up of the Festival site. Without them we wouldn’t be able to achieve our current rate of recycling.
Since 2014, over 100,000 reusable stainless steel and 9,000 aluminium water bottles have been sold as an alternative to single-use plastic bottles. These were refillable at taps and WaterAid kiosks across site.
All the bin bags used to collect recycling and general waste are made of recycled plastic which will again be recycled into more bin bags.

Sewage waste.

There are over 1,200 eco-friendly compost toilets on site which yield over 500 tonnes of horticultural compost every year.
Glastonbury Festival’s long drop toilets use no chemicals so waste can be treated easily at local sewage works.

What you can do:

Around half of all waste created by Glastonbury Festival is reused or recycled. But with help from you we can do even better.

Please bring a reusable water bottle. These can be filled for free at our taps and WaterAid kiosks across the Festival site.
Please only use what you need. If every Festival-goer used four napkins instead of one, there would be an extra 450,000 napkins wasted unnecessarily.
Please use our recycling bins. It is not okay to drop litter on the ground. Help us by placing your waste into the correct recycling bins.
Take your tent and equipment home with you. Nothing should be considered disposable so please only bring equipment that is built to last.
Please avoid using disposable wipes. Even biodegradable wipes, which quickly breakdown into micro-plastics, are problematic environmental pollutants.

Energy policy

Global climate change continues to present the biggest threat to our planet. Here at Glastonbury Festival we are committed to reducing greenhouse emissions and using clean energy sources whenever possible. Please read on to learn more about our work to lower our carbon footprint.

Our work so far:

Incentivising green travel.

To encourage Festival-goers to arrive by bus, our combined Festival and coach ticket packages are available to buy before standard entry tickets.
Our sustainable travel-initiatives have helped over hundreds of thousands of ticket-holders travel to the Festival by bike or public transport. Each year, more than 40,000 ticket-holders take advantage of these for their Festival travel.
We run regular free shuttle buses to and from Castle Cary railway station throughout the Festival.

Prioritising clean energy.

Since 2023 all of Glastonbury Festival’s power needs have be met by renewable energy and renewable fuels.
All generators across the Festival site – including those that power the Pyramid Stage – run on sustainable, renewable palm oil-free HVO fuel, made from waste cooking oil, helping to reduce lifecycle CO2e emissions by up to 90 percent.
All production areas are either powered by lower impact, fossil-fuel free electricity or run on solar PV and battery hybrid systems.
A temporary wind turbine, installed alongside a solar panel and battery system, produces up to 300kWh of energy per day and powers food stalls in Williams Green.
Clean energy from the Festival’s own 250kWp solar PV array, as well as our anaerobic digester and 125kVA biogas plant power, provide energy for Festival offices and some production areas as well as helping to charge some battery systems.
In order to reduce our on-site emissions, a small fleet of electric vehicles are used to transport artists around the site to their performances.
In 2010 Worthy Farm installed 1500 square meters of solar panels on the roof of the cattle shed. At the time, the 1,316 roof-mounted solar panels made this one of the largest privately owned solar photovoltaic systems in the country.
Since their inception in 1984, The Green Fields – including the 1000-capacity Croissant Neuf stage – have continued to be run on renewable solar, wind and pedal power.
In late 2018, Worthy Farm installed a new anaerobic digester. The anaerobic digester transforms farm waste into renewable energy that powers Worthy Farm and Festival offices year round as well as some production areas during the Festival.
Where possible, battery systems are deployed and charged directly by these onsite farm renewables through the mains power grid or via temporary solar power systems. All mains power onsite is supplied from fully certified renewable energy sources.
Glastonbury Festival offices on Worthy Farm are heated by a ground source heat pump.
185 low energy led tower lights are used on site.
Decarbonisation remains a driving priority for Glastonbury Festival. We are continuing to invest in our existing on site renewables – such as our solar PV array and biogas plant – and upgrade our infrastructure to increase our connectivity to the national grid, where all our electricity is supplied by a combination of Worthy Farm’s own on site solar and biogas plant supplemented by a 100 percent traceable, renewable energy tariff.

Improving infrastructure to cut down on transport emissions.

There is an on-site Wholesale Market to reduce food miles and cut down on delivery vehicles.
With 2 million litres of water stored in its reservoirs and 7km of on-site private water mains, Glastonbury Festival’s water needs can be met through its own mains water supply and no water needs to be transported to the Festival by tanker.

What you can do:

With your help we can do even more to bring down our greenhouse gas emissions. With over 200,000 people at the Festival, these are small steps that bring us closer to a greener, cleaner world.

Please use public transport, cycle or car-share to Glastonbury Festival. Car exhaust is the greatest contributor to the Festival’s greenhouse gases. By car-sharing, or better still, using public transport or cycling to the Festival, we can hugely reduce the amount of pollution produced.
Save energy at home. While you’re at Glastonbury Festival, unplug your telly and other non-essential appliances and switch off unnecessary lights. Please also consider using LED light bulbs and switching to an energy supplier that commits to clean, renewable energy sources.

Ecological Policy

At Glastonbury Festival we are passionate about improving the world we live in. We want to make the Festival as sustainable as we can and aim to be frugal with resources, minimise our impact on our environment and commit towards improving the wellbeing and welfare of all who work at and come to enjoy the Festival.

Our work so far:

Care of our environment.

Drinking water in our reservoirs is heavily monitored and quality-tested twice a day during the Festival and in its preceding weeks.
During the Festival and in the weeks that follow, Glastonbury Festival carries out continuous monitoring of the water in the rivers and watercourses that run through the site to ensure that the water quality remains high for the welfare of local wildlife.
The Festival monitor the health of local ecology year-round, and control the risk of damage to local ecosystems.
Teams of litter pickers work throughout the Festival and afterwards, hand-collecting litter.
Since 2000, Glastonbury Festival has planted over 10,000 native trees and hedge plants to support and enhance the local environment.
Glastonbury works hard to protect vulnerable habitats, ponds, streams, hedges and ditches, by creating nature reserves and non-public zones.

Promotion of sustainable practices.

The Festival only uses Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or appropriately certified building timber. At the end of its use, unusable wood is chipped and used around the farm.
All coffee, tea and drinking chocolate sold on site must be Fair Trade, and sugar must be either Fair Trade or British.
Fish must be Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified.
Charcoal and wood must be British or Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified.
All milk sold through traders at Glastonbury Festival must be purchased from the on-site wholesale milk supplier to reduce transport miles.
All food service disposables/serve ware – including straws and hot drink lids – must be made from paper, card, wood or leaves and be fully compostable.
Traders are not permitted to bring or use single-use sachets of sugar, sauces, salt, pepper or milk pods.
All official Glastonbury Festival bags are 100% organic, unbleached natural cotton, printed with Azo Free water based inks.
Our official Glastonbury Festival T-shirts are 100% organic cotton, certified by GOTS.
The dyes used in the manufacture of the T-shirts are all reactive dyes, which are the kindest to the environment for use in commercial garment manufacturing.

What you can do:

Please use the toilets provided. Urinating on the land or in the rivers contaminates the local water supply, killing wildlife and seriously compromises the future of the festival.
Please use our waste and recycling bins. It is not okay to drop litter on the ground. Help us look after our environment by placing your waste into the correct recycling bins.
Please dispose of cigarette butts responsibly. If they are thrown on the land, they leach chemicals into the soil and local water supplies.
For campfires, please only burn the wood provided. Do not take wood from the trees and hedges. Not only will green wood not burn well, but taking it disrupts habitats.
Please use water responsibly. Turn off taps and help us use water efficiently.
Please only use biodegradable body glitter. Conventional glitter is a microplastic pollutant.

The application process for the 2025 Festival was open between 1^st October 2024 5pm on 1^stNovember 2024, however has now closed to allow the selection process to take place. We will be taking our next fallow year in 2026, therefore applications for trading at the 2027 Festival are likely to be available in October 2026.

Thousands of food traders, charities, campaigning organisations and sellers of the bizarre and unique apply to trade at Glastonbury Festival each year. Pitches are not allocated on a first come first served basis. We assess each application on its own merit so we ask for as much information as possible including photographs of your stall and products. There will be more than 200,000 people on site at the busiest, with the public arriving from Wednesday morning onwards and most staying until Monday morning.

TRADERS FAQS

* Please read thoroughly even if you have traded at the Festival before *

What does Glastonbury Festival look for from applicants?

The presentation and appearance of your stall is important as is the goods you are proposing to sell. The online application process requires you to upload photos of your stall and products. If you do not have photos of your stall, we would need to see a sketch or artists impression of how your stall would look if it were at Glastonbury Festival 2025. Applications with no photos/sketches are incomplete and will not go through to the selection process. We look for creative and aesthetically pleasing stalls which fit in with the ethics of the Festival and are keen for the Festival Markets to be full of good quality food/products, at a fair price.

Due to the size of Glastonbury, festival trading experience is essential. Feedback from other traders tells us this is invaluable especially when planning stock levels and staffing.

When completing your application, please ensure stall and pitch sizes are accurate. We need to know precisely what space you require – do not guess. We use the information you give us to plan our market areas and are unable to make changes once space has been allocated. We request four measurements from you – stall width and depth and pitch width and depth. Stall sizes must include your trading structure and any additional kitchen/preparation area you may have. The pitch sizes need to include your stall as well as an exact width for guy ropes/tow hooks and in terms of depth, space for any essential onsite vehicles, trailers, caravans, campervans and space for your staff to camp. Please remember space is at a premium and onsite vehicles and caravans will be limited. Entry to your stall will be via a gate leading into the back of the market area rather than through the front of your stall therefore please ensure the pitch size you give is exact. We will be asking successful applicants to draw their pitch layout which must include the stall itself, all allocated onsite vehicles and the area required for camping.

Is there anything I am not allowed to sell?

In your application we would ask that you give details of everything you wish to sell onsite. Successful applicants will be advised in their Offer to Trade of any products listed on their application which cannot be sold. We are very careful to minimise product clashes across site and selling products without prior authorisation from the Main Markets Office will be considered a breach of the Terms and Conditions. Contraband items are detailed in our Terms and Conditions which form part of the application process.

The Festival supports Fairtrade and this international movement which works across over 70 countries and is committed to improving living standards, investing in communities and businesses as well as protecting the environment. Fairtrade is a recognised Trademark and stands for fair prices for farmers and workers who struggle with low incomes and disadvantaged global trade. The Festival expects all coffee, black tea, chocolate (including hot chocolate drinks) and non-UK sugar sold on site will carry the Fairtrade Trademark.

Single use plastic bottles have not been sold on site since 2019, all drinks sold must be in cans or paper cups only.

All serveware (plates, cups, straws etc) must be home-compostable and must be made from paper, wood, cardboard or leaves. Items which ‘look’ plastic, say they are biodegradable or recyclable, made of cornstarch or PLA (polylactic acid) are unacceptable. The rules around composting are very strict and using non-compliant disposables would impact on future applications. The Festival has approved wholesalers who are able to supply traders with suitable serveware.

Traders who use charcoal to cook with must ensure it comes from a sustainable source which means all charcoal packaging must show that it is a British Product or, if imported, that the charcoal is certified by the FSC (Forest Stewardship Council). In addition charcoal packaging must be fully compostable – plastic sacks/bags are not permitted. Traders will be inspected on site and charcoal packaging will be checked. Any traders found not be adhering to these rules run the risk of not being offered a pitch in the future.

The Festival has appointed a number of Approved Wholesalers who have been given authority to deliver to Bars, Traders and Crew Caterers. Details are available to all applicants on the Information Pages accessed via your dashboard. We expect all Traders, Bars and Crew Caterers to order from our Approved Wholesalers and recommend ordering early to secure your product lines. Delivery requests can be made for items such as marquees but please note that deliveries by, for example, other Food Services Companies will not be permitted. More details will be advised to successful applicants but please bear this in mind if you are looking to secure your product ranges with potential supplies before you know the outcome of your application.

There are concessions in place for a number of products including soft drinks. Successful applicants will be advised of the brands they are allowed to sell, these brands will be available from our approved wholesalers.

Traders are not permitted to sell alcohol including for example brandy coffee or Grand Marnier crepes.

How much does a pitch cost?

Each pitch is priced individually therefore it is difficult to provide a reliable estimation of the price of a pitch until we have completed our selection process. Prices are based on a number of factors including (but not exclusively) the location, the trading space, the prices and types of products being sold and the number of staff passes allocated.

We only have a limited amount of space and tickets available for market traders therefore if you are successful, you may be allocated a different amount of space, tickets or vehicle passes than requested in your application.

In addition to the pitch fee, you will need to pay for your standpipe/direct connection (food traders), any other water connections and power, all of which will be payable in the first week of April. All prices are subject to VAT.

What should I bear in mind before applying?

Use of the Glastonbury Festival logo, name (including just the name Glastonbury/Glasto) and/or images (for example the Pyramid, Ribbon Tower etc) on any goods or promotional material is strictly prohibited. This applies to social media, websites and press coverage.

Sub-contracting, sub-letting or the sharing of a stall or any part of a stall is strictly forbidden. If there are changes to the business ownership between application and offer – applicants must make the Festival aware immediately. Any Trader selling their stall whilst under contract to the Festival will have the Offer withdrawn

Food Traders/Bars/Crew Caterers: We expect the person making the application and managing the operation onsite to be the Food Business Operator.

The Festival welcomes and encourages applications from non-food traders who wish to sell clothing from sustainable and ethical brands. When reviewing applications from Traders selling clothing, we look for good quality second hand/pre-loved items and where possible, certification to demonstrate where new clothing is sourced from. When you apply, be sure to let us know as much about your products as you can. As part of the Festivals commitment to Fairtrade, we will be looking for new cotton clothing to carry the Fairtrade Mark.

No Generators are allowed on-site.

Traders successful in their application must only sell approved goods at prices specified in their application and agreed with the Main Markets Office in their Offer to Trade. The Festival reserves the right to restrict your product list. Traders found to be selling products on site which are not on their application form risk not being invited to trade in future.

Traders wishing to sell goods or services to festival goers in advance of the Festival (ie. Pre-orders) must have prior permission from the Main Markets Office

Glastonbury festival is committed to being an inclusive event, and we expect all our traders, caterers and bar providers to consider how they can become more accessible to the many Deaf, disabled and neurodivergent Festival goers, crew and performers on site. Click here to download a PDF of Access Guidelines for Traders.

What if I don’t need a pitch, can I just walk about and sell my goods?

No. All approved traders must have a static pitch from which to trade. Mobile/roaming traders and fly-pitchers are strictly prohibited. Anyone found to be selling products without the authorisation of the Main Markets Office will have their items confiscated and may be evicted from site.

How do I apply for a stall on behalf of a charity/campaigning organisation?

The Festival hosts many charities and campaigning organisations on site, raising awareness of their cause.

Fundraising for your organisation on site is prohibited without prior permission from the Markets Office.

This includes:

Collection boxes for cash donations
Card donation machines
Taking bank details to sign people up to memberships

Donations or payments that are permitted:

Suggested donations in exchange for workshops or activities
Payment or minimum donations in exchange for products and merchandise

The collection of personal data on site by charitable or campaigning organisations is also prohibited without prior permission. Please consider this when planning your activities.

The Green Futures Field is home to a number of campaign and charity stalls. Please note that there is no electricity in this field and generators are not allowed on site. If you need power to run your stall please consider other options, for example solar. Vehicles are not permitted to park in this field unless they are an integral part of the stall (for example you trade from a bus or a fire engine). If your application is successful, you will be allocated a short stay vehicle pass to allow you to drop equipment and stock to your stall. Your vehicle will then need to be parked in the Festival car park. Stalls in this area have a reduced pitch fee.

To apply, please complete the relevant application form, giving as much information about what you do and what you would bring to the Festival. Please include photos and sketches to help with our assessment. We ask all applicants to think about the Festival environment as much as possible and how their stall would fit with this – we encourage the use of sustainable, recycled and reusable materials as well as using engaging ways to interact with Festival goers rather than bringing a table full of pamphlets/leaflets or other single use materials to site.

If you are a charity, campaigning organisation, CIO, CIC or other non-profit company, you will be required to provide your registration number on your application form.

Are there minimum trading days/hours?

All successful traders will be advised in their Offer to Trade of the earliest time they may arrive on site. Dates for 2025 will be either Sunday 22nd or Monday 23rd June. Once set up traders can begin trading as soon as they have been given the go ahead by their Market Manager. Traders are expected to be open for a minimum 12 hours each day between Wednesday 25th and Sunday 29th June, it is up to each trader whether they wish to open longer. Some traders will choose to open on Monday 30th June. Traders cannot leave site before 6pm on Monday 30th June 2025.

What documentation do I need?

Whether you come to site as a food trader, crew caterer, bar, non-food trader, charity or campaigner, you are operating as a legitimate business and as such have to comply with current legislation. Regardless of whether or not you are selling a product or service to the public, you will need documentation in place, some of which will be requested in advance of the Festival. To include, but not exclusively:-

Public and Employers Liability Insurance Certificates
Food traders are required to carry a minimum £5m cover
Non-food traders are required to carry a minimum £1m cover
Health & Safety Documentation (Policies, Risk Assessments including Food Safety Management Systems (as appropriate) and Fire Risk Assessment, Training Records etc.)

PAT Test Certification
Gas Safety Certificates (where applicable – carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer qualified to work on the equipment you are bringing to site)
Written Scheme of Examination for all pressurized Systems (including coffee machines)
Food Safety Management System (SFBB, NCASS, COOKSAFE or similar)
Food Hygiene Training Certificate (food handlers only)
Written allergen information on all unpackaged food together with fully completed Allergen Matrix documentation.
Labelling for any Pre-Packed Food For Direct Sales.

Food traders, crew caterers and bars MUST be registered with a Local Authority.

All food traders, bars and crew caterers will be visited onsite by Food Safety Officers. Before you begin to trade you MUST clearly display a BLUE EHO CARD which will have been sent to you with your Welcome Pack. Once trading, our Food Safety Officers will visit every trader and award either a Red, Amber or Green Card based on their compliance with food safety legislation. Traders awarded a Green Card, are considered safe to continue trading. Traders receiving Amber cards will have some areas requiring attention and improvement but will be allowed to continue to trade. Any trader considered unsafe will receive a Red Card and will not be allowed to trade until a further inspection has taken place.

One of my staff has a public ticket, is this ok?

Entry for public ticket holders is from Wednesday 25^thJune only. Please note that camping space behind your stall is based on the crew tickets numbers allocated to you and that access to your stall and the camping area is via a Market Gate and therefore limited to those with Markets Wristbands only. Space for Public Ticket Holders is provided in the public camping areas. Any other arrangement is at the discretion of the Festival and you will need to request permission via email markets@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk before 31 May 2025. Please be aware that due to limited space it is unlikely requests will be accommodated.

When will I find out if I have been successful in my application?

The result of your application will be on your dashboard on/by 1^st March 2025.

If I am successful, what happens next?

Successful applicants will receive an Offer to Trade giving them lots of information including full details of the pitch location and size we are offering, how many tickets and vehicle passes have been allocated and the price. If you wish to accept our offer, you will need to agree to the Traders Terms and Conditions and order power and direct water connections (if required).

I am a food trader, how do I get more stock during the Festival?

We work hard to minimise vehicle movement therefore rather than having masses of delivery vehicles driving around the site, we have a variety of approved wholesalers who are able to supply a wide range of products including chilled and frozen foods, disposables, gas, fruit and vegetables, meat, milk, bread, charcoal, refrigeration and ethical produce. These wholesalers deliver to stalls both before and during the Festival, in addition there is an onsite wholesale market which traders can visit on foot to collect supplies. Further information will be available as part of the application process. Please note we have a strict policy regarding on-site deliveries and we strongly recommend you check the details of our on-site wholesalers before you enter any agreements with a foodservice wholesaler as they may not be allowed on site.

Data Protection

Your application data will only be used within the Festival office for the purpose of assessing suitability for trading at Glastonbury Festival and will be held by us for a maximum of 7 years. Contact details of successful food traders, crew caterers and bars will be passed onto our approved wholesalers to allow the sharing of price lists and other relevant information. Your details will not be shared or sold to any other third parties. If you wish for us to delete your data after the 2025 Festival, please email markets@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk. The Glastonbury Festival Privacy Policy can be found here.

I have a bar, how can I apply?

Most bars onsite return year on year therefore it is very unlikely there will be any opportunities for 2025. If you wish for us to keep your details on file, please email information to markets@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk
