Glastonbury Festival 2026

Glastonbury is the largest and most iconic music festival in the world — five days of music, arts, theatre, circus, and creative chaos spread across 900 acres of Somerset farmland. From the Pyramid Stage headliners to hidden venues in Shangri-La, from the Stone Circle at sunrise to the healing fields at dusk, Glastonbury is a temporary city of 200,000 people devoted to live music and shared experience. The lineup spans everything from global superstars to unsigned bands playing their first festival. Beyond music, there's contemporary theatre, stand-up comedy, cabaret, dance, film, debate, and art installations. The scale is staggering — you could attend for all five days and barely scratch the surface. Tickets sell out in minutes when they go on sale (typically October for the following June). Register in advance on the Glastonbury website. Prepare for mud, sun, or both — the weather at Worthy Farm is famously unpredictable. Bring wellies regardless. A pilgrimage every music lover should make at least once.
