, co-creator of the festival, at
Glastonbury Festival 2010 1970 The first festival at Worthy Farm was the
Pop, Blues & Folk Festival, hosted by
Michael Eavis on Saturday 19 September 1970, and attended by 1,500 people. There had been a commercial UK festival tradition which included the
National Jazz and Blues Festival and the
Isle of Wight Festival. Eavis decided to host the first festival after seeing an open-air concert headlined by Led Zeppelin at the 1970 Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music at the nearby
Bath and West Showground in 1970. The original headline acts were
The Kinks and
Wayne Fontana and
the Mindbenders but these acts were replaced at short notice by Tyrannosaurus Rex, later known as
T. Rex. Tickets were £1 (equivalent to £19.77 in 2025). Other billed acts of note were
Steamhammer,
Quintessence,
Stackridge,
Al Stewart,
Pink Fairies and
Keith Christmas.
1971 The "Glastonbury Fair" of 1971 was instigated by
Andrew Kerr after being found and introduced to Michael Eavis by David Trippas, and organised with the help of
Arabella Churchill, Jean Bradbery, Kikan Eriksdotter, John Massara, Jeff Dexter,
Thomas Crimble,
Bill Harkin,
Gilberto Gil,
Mark Irons, John Coleman, and
Jytte Klamer. The 1971 festival featured the first incarnation of the "Pyramid Stage". Conceived by Bill Harkin the stage was a one-tenth replica of the
Great Pyramid of Giza built from scaffolding and metal sheeting and positioned over a "blind spring", a term used to describe a hypothetical underground body of water in the pseudoscientific practice of
dowsing. Performers included
Family,
David Bowie,
Mighty Baby,
Traffic,
Fairport Convention,
Gong,
Hawkwind,
Pink Fairies,
Skin Alley,
The Worthy Farm Windfuckers and
Melanie. It was paid for by its supporters and advocates of its ideal, and embraced a medieval tradition of music, dance, poetry, theatre, lights, and spontaneous entertainment. The 1971 festival was filmed by
Nicolas Roeg and
David Puttnam with Eavis and Kerr's Glastonbury Fair changed to
Glastonbury Fayre, and a triple album of the same name was released (no connection with the film).
1979 There was a small unplanned event in 1978, when the convoy of vehicles from the
Stonehenge festival was directed by police to Worthy Farm; the festival was then revived the following year (1979) by Churchill, Crimble, Kerr and Eavis, in an event for the Year of the Child, which lost money.
1980s The 1980s saw the festival become an annual fixture, barring periodic fallow years. In 1981, Michael Eavis took back sole control of the festival, and it was organised in conjunction with the
Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). That year a new Pyramid Stage was constructed from telegraph poles and metal sheeting (repurposed from materials of the
Ministry of Defence), a permanent structure which doubled as a hay barn and cowshed during the winter. In the 1980s, the children's area of the festival (which had been organised by Arabella Churchill and others) became the starting point for a new children's charity called
Children's World. 1981 was the first year that the festival made profits, and Eavis donated £20,000 of them to CND (). In the following years, donations were made to a number of organisations, and since the end of the
Cold War the main beneficiaries have been
Oxfam,
Greenpeace and
WaterAid, who all contribute towards the festival by providing features and volunteers, who work at the festival in exchange for free entry. It also saw the first TV coverage, with ITV broadcasting recorded highlights in the weeks after the festival. Since 1983, large festivals have required licences from local authorities. This led to certain restrictions being placed on the festival, including a crowd limit and specified times during which the stages could operate. The crowd limit was initially set at 30,000 but has grown every year to over 100,000. 1984 saw the stage invaded by fans during
The Smiths' set.
Weather Report played the main stage, and
Elvis Costello headlined the last night for almost three hours. In 1985, the festival grew too large for Worthy Farm, but neighbouring Cockmill Farm was purchased. That year saw a wet festival with considerable rain; Worthy Farm is a dairy farm and what washed down into the low areas was a mixture of mud and liquefied cow dung. This did not prevent festival goers from enjoying the knee-deep slurry in front of the Pyramid Stage. 1989 was the first year that impromptu, unofficial sound systems sprang up around the festival site – a portent of things to come. These sound systems would play loud, electronic acid house music around the clock, with the largest, the Hypnosis sound system, rivalling the volume of some of the official stages and running non-stop throughout the festival.
1990s Following the 1990 festival, violence flared between security guards and
new age travellers in what became known as "The Battle of Yeoman's Bridge". Eavis was also facing increasing battles from locals over the festival, with no festival taking place in 1991. Both pressures are captured in the 1992
Channel 4 documentary
Showdown at Glastonbury. An expanded festival returned in
1992, and this proved a great success. 1992 was the first year that the new age travellers were not initially allowed onto the site free, and a sturdier fence was designed. This success was carried through to
1993 which, like 1992, was hot and dry. In 1994, the Pyramid Stage burned down just over a week before the festival; a temporary main stage was erected in time for the festival. The 1994 festival also introduced a 150
kW wind turbine which provided some of the festival power. Headliners Levellers set another record when they played to a crowd of as many as 300,000 people on their Friday performance, Glastonbury's biggest ever crowd .
Channel 4 televised the festival that same year; the coverage concentrated on the main two music stages and providing a glimpse of the festival for those who knew little of it. Channel 4's
4 Goes to Glastonbury brought widely expanded televised coverage of the festival for the first time in 1994 and also the following year. The TV broadcast in 1994 was a crucial factor in ensuring that
Orbital's performance at the festival achieved legendary status. As a result, living rooms across the country were able to experience what a rave might look like, and suddenly dance music, which had been ignored by the establishment and mainstream press for years, did not seem so dangerous and which would be a turning point for the music at Glastonbury. Speaking to
The Guardian in 2013 about the Orbital gig,
Michael Eavis noted that it marked dance music's appearance on the mainstream agenda. "What was previously underground made it on to one of the big stages, and there was no going back from there. As the police and the council made me very well aware, the buzz had been around the raves and the market sound systems and in the travellers' fields for years. But it needed a showcase to make it legal." This aside, 1995 proved to be a highly successful year with memorable performances from
Oasis,
Elastica,
Pulp,
PJ Harvey,
Jeff Buckley,
Jamiroquai and
The Cure. This was also the first year of the festival having a dance tent to cater for the rising popularity of dance music, following the success of
Orbital's headline appearance the previous year. The dance acts of 1995 were led by Massive Attack on the Friday and
Carl Cox on the Saturday. The festival took a year off in 1996 to allow the land to recover and give the organisers a break. 1996 also saw the release of
Glastonbury the Movie which was filmed at the 1993 and 1994 festivals. The festival returned in 1997. This time there was major sponsorship from
The Guardian and the
BBC, who had taken over televising the event from Channel 4. This was also the year of the mud, with the site suffering severe rainfalls which turned the entire site into a muddy bog. However, those who stayed for the festival were treated to many memorable performances, including
Radiohead's headlining Pyramid Stage set on the Saturday which is said to be one of the greatest ever Glastonbury performances. The live recording of "
Paranoid Android" from this performance, as well as others such as "The Day Before Yesterday's Man" by
The Supernaturals, were released on a BBC CD entitled
Mud For It. In 1998, the festival was once again struck with severe floods and storms, and again some festival goers departed early – but those who stayed were treated to performances from acts such as
Pulp,
Robbie Williams and
Blur.
Tony Bennett, however, overcame the messy environment in an immaculate, blue lounge suit and tie. 1998 was also the first year that attendance officially broke the 100,000 mark. Speaking to the BBC in 2024, Michael Eavis' daughter
Emily explained that her parents always planned to close the festival when they reached retirement age, with many of the festivals in the 1990s being "the last one". The death of Michael Eavis' wife Jean in 1999 persuaded him to continue organising the festival. The Pyramid Stage also hosted an unusual event on the Saturday morning, with the wedding of two festivalgoers, who had written to the organisers asking for permission to get married there, taking place and conducted by actor
Keith Allen in front of a small group of friends and any other festivalgoers who still happened to be awake. This year also saw an estimated 250,000 people attend the festival (only 100,000 tickets were sold) due to gatecrashers. This led to public safety concerns and the local
District Council refused any further licences until the problem was solved. The organisers used the scheduled fallow year 2001 to devise anti-gatecrashing measures and secure the future of the festival, after the
Roskilde Festival 2000 accident. It was at this point that the Mean Fiddler Organisation was invited to help.
In 2002 the festival returned, with the controversial Mean Fiddler now handling the logistics and security – especially installing a substantial surrounding fence (dubbed the "superfence") that reduced numbers to the levels of a decade earlier. 2002 also saw
Coldplay headline the Pyramid Stage for the first time while the show was closed by a set from
Rod Stewart on the Sunday night. There were some criticisms of the 2002 festival that it lacked atmosphere, because of the reduced number of people, which reflected the smaller numbers jumping the fence. The number of tickets was increased to 150,000 for 2003 which sold out within one day of going on sale, This was also the year Radiohead returned to headline the Pyramid Stage. Revenue raised for good causes from ticket and commercial licence sales topped £1 million, half of which went to Oxfam, Greenpeace and Water Aid.
In 2004, tickets sold out within 24 hours amid much controversy over the ticket ordering process, which left potential festival goers trying for hours to connect to the overloaded telephone and internet sites. The website got two million attempted connections within the first five minutes of the tickets going on sale and an average of 2,500 people on the phone lines every minute. The festival was not hit by extreme weather, but high winds on the Wednesday delayed entry, and steady rain throughout Saturday turned some areas of the site to mud. The festival ended with
Muse headlining the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, after
Oasis had headlined on Friday. After the 2004 festival, Michael Eavis commented that 2006 would be a year off – in keeping with the previous history of taking one "fallow year" in every five to give the villagers and surrounding areas a rest from the yearly disruption. This was confirmed after the licence for 2005 was granted.
In 2005 the 112,500 ticket quota sold out rapidly – in this case in 3 hours 20 minutes. For 2005, the enclosed area of the festival was over , had over 385 live performances, and was attended by around 150,000 people. The Sunday headliner was originally scheduled to be
Kylie Minogue, but she had to pull out in May after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
Basement Jaxx were announced as a replacement on 6 June. Both Coldplay and Basement Jaxx performed a cover of Kylie's "
Can't Get You Out Of My Head" during their concert. 2005 saw a big increase in the number of dance music attractions, with the multiple tents of the Dance Village replacing the solitary dance tent of previous years. This new area contained the East and West dance tents, the Dance Lounge, Roots Stage and Pussy Parlour, as well as a relocated G Stage, formerly situated in the Glade. The introduction of the
silent disco by festival organiser
Emily Eavis allowed revellers to party into the early hours without disturbing the locals – a requirement of the festival's licensing. Following the death of DJ
John Peel in the autumn of 2004, the New Tent was renamed the John Peel Tent, in homage to his encouragement and love of new bands at Glastonbury. The opening day of the 2005 festival was delayed by heavy rain and thunderstorms: Several stages, including the Acoustic Tent (and one of the bars), were struck by
lightning, and the valley was hit with
flash floods that left some areas of the site under more than four feet of water. The severity of the weather flooded several
campsites, the worst affected being the base of Pennard Hill, and seriously disrupted site services. However, Mendip District Council's review of the festival called it one of the "safest ever" and gives the festival a glowing report in how it dealt with the floods. and the capacity expanded by 20,000 to 177,000. This was the first year that "The Park" area opened. Designed by Emily Eavis, its main stage featured extra sets by several artists playing on the main stages including Spinal Tap,
Pete Doherty and
Gruff Rhys, whilst the BBC launched their new "Introducing" stage in the area. As an extra precaution against
touts (scalpers), purchasers had to pre-register, including submission of a passport photo which was security printed into the ticket. Continued periods of rain throughout much of the festival caused muddy conditions, though without the flooding of 2005, in part due to the new £750,000 flood defences. However, this constant rain made the general conditions within the site worse than 2 years before and more like the mud plains of 1998. It was difficult to find anywhere to sit down that had not turned to mud and key choke points, such as the thoroughfare at the front right of the Pyramid Stage, turned into a quagmire. Muddy conditions on the temporary roads on the periphery of the site led to delays for people leaving the site. On 25 June, when the vast majority of festival goers were attempting to leave the festival, cars in the western car parks took more than nine hours to exit the site. There was no stewarding provision in these areas, no information was disseminated regarding the delays, no organised marshalling of traffic was undertaken by the festival organisers, and no provision of drinking water was made to people stranded in their vehicles. Verbal and physical violence was witnessed between festival goers. When cars were finally allowed to leave the site the surrounding roads were found to be clear. Reported crime was down from 2005 but the number of arrests were "well up", after a proactive operation of the police and security on site. There were 236 reported crimes, down from 267 in 2005; of these, 158 were drug related (183 in 2005). 1,200 people required medical aid with 32 hospitalised, most of which were accidents caused by the mud. There was one fatality: a West Midlands man found unconscious early on the Saturday morning died in
Yeovil District Hospital of a suspected drugs overdose. The
Glastonbury Festival 2008 was held on 27, 28 and 29 June, headlined by
Kings of Leon,
Jay-Z and
The Verve on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, respectively, with other notable acts including
Neil Diamond,
Shakin' Stevens,
Levellers, and
Stackridge, who opened the first festival in 1970. Continuing the procedure introduced in 2007, ticket buyers had to pre-register and submit a passport photo between 1 February and 14 March to buy tickets which went on sale at 9 am on Sunday 6 April. Following 40,000 tickets not being sold, the pre-registration process was reopened on 8 April. Several reasons have been cited for this, including the poor weather of the previous four years and the controversial choice of featuring the hip hop artist,
Jay-Z, as a headlining act. A day before the festival began, Michael Eavis announced that there were still around 3,000 tickets remaining, making it possible that it would be the first festival in 15 years not to sell out in advance. It had also been announced that any remaining tickets would be sold from major branches of
HMV. 2008 saw the introduction of a new field adjacent to the Sacred space and Park Stage. Not named by the organisers, the festival goers themselves called it "Flagtopia" in reference to the flags located there. After the huge number of tents left behind in 2007 and when one of Michael Eavis's cows died after ingesting a metal tent-peg left in the soil, the Festival devised its Love the Farm, Leave No Trace campaign which gently pushed revellers to respect the environment and clear up after themselves. The Festival had always pushed a green agenda and new initiatives in 2008 included biodegradable
tent pegs handed out free to all campers and biotractors running on waste vegetable oil. These new efforts were rewarded with The Greener Festival Award for 2008 alongside a number of other festivals also committed to environmentally friendly music festivals. The 2008 festival was reported to have cost £22 million to produce. The
Glastonbury Festival 2009 took place between 24 and 28 June 2009. In marked contrast with previous years, the 137,500 tickets went on sale on 5 October 2008, earlier than ever before, with pre-registered customers able either to pay in full, or place a £50 reserve deposit to be paid by 1 February. Tickets for the festival sold out. Other notable performers included
Jarvis Cocker,
Fairport Convention (who played at the first Glastonbury Festival),
Tom Jones,
Steel Pulse,
Doves,
Lady Gaga,
Jason Mraz,
Nick Cave,
Pete Doherty,
Hugh Cornwell,
Status Quo,
The Gaslight Anthem (in which Springsteen appeared on stage during their song "
The '59 Sound"),
Madness,
Dizzee Rascal,
Crosby, Stills & Nash,
Lily Allen,
Kasabian and
Florence and the Machine. Tickets went on sale on 4 October 2009, using the same £50 deposit scheme introduced the previous year; unlike the previous two years, and more in common with earlier festivals, the tickets for the 2010 edition sold out in less than 24 hours.
U2 were due to headline the Pyramid Stage on Friday night at Glastonbury 2010, but due to frontman
Bono sustaining a back injury they were forced to pull out. According to the media, Bono was "gutted", even having written a song especially for the festival.
Damon Albarn's
Gorillaz replaced U2, and joined
Muse and
Stevie Wonder for the Saturday and Sunday headline slots respectively. It was Albarn's second headlining act in two years.
Pet Shop Boys returned after 10 years to headline the Other Stage on the Saturday Night. The entire stage set from their
Pandemonium Tour was brought in for the performance which was extremely well received. Radiohead's
Thom Yorke and
Jonny Greenwood made a surprise appearance with a nine-song set. The weather at the festival was among some of the best ever, the festival-goers enjoying 3 days of abundant sunshine and very warm to hot temperatures, which reached close to 30 degrees on the Sunday; it was the first rain-free festival since 2002 and the hottest since the festival began. , which was built in 2010 During 2010 Michael Eavis received a donation from
British Waterways of timber from the old
gates at
Caen Hill Locks in Wiltshire. This was used to construct a new bridge which was dedicated to the memory of Arabella Churchill. The following year more of the redundant lock gates were used to build the Campo Pequeno amphitheatre. The
Glastonbury Festival 2011 took place from Wednesday 22 until Sunday 26 June 2011. The tickets were sold out within 4 hours of going on sale on Sunday 3 October 2010. Headline acts for 2011 were
U2 on the Friday night, Coldplay on the Saturday and
Beyoncé on Sunday. This made Beyoncé the first woman to headline at the festival since 1999. The festival was not held in 2012, giving the site and organisers a "fallow year" which originally would have been in 2011, in keeping with the tradition of taking a break every fifth year. Michael Eavis cited the shortage and likely cost of portable toilets and policing, due to the needs of the
2012 Summer Olympics, as being amongst the reasons. The decision to move the fallow year to 2012 also proved to be a fortunate one, as Somerset experienced spells of persistent heavy rain in the period up to and including the week that the festival would normally have been held. Indeed, Emily Eavis suggested that the festival itself might have been called off, such was the severity of the weather. Registration for tickets to the
2013 festival began in June 2011 and ticket booking opened at 9am on Sunday 7 October 2012, with 135,000 selling out in a record time of one hour and forty minutes. To mark the 2012 Glastonbury weekend, Eavis was invited to guest edit the local paper, the
Western Daily Press, on Saturday 23 June. performing "
Adventure of a Lifetime", during their headline setlist at
Glastonbury 2016. The performance was their fifth at the festival, and a record-setting fourth as headliners. During the 2014 festival, a 26-year-old Berkshire man suffered from a suspected reaction to
Ketamine and later died in Bristol Royal Infirmary. Despite this, police reported that crime was down 30% from last year but reminded festival goers to look after their possessions. In 2014 Mendip District Council issued a licence for 10 years up until 2024. A few weeks before the 2015 festival
Foo Fighters frontman
Dave Grohl fell off a stage during a show in Gothenburg and broke his leg, forcing their late withdrawal from the line-up.
Florence and the Machine were moved from second-top on the bill to Friday's headliner, while Florence's vacant gap was filled by the
Reading and Leeds Festival headliners
The Libertines, and their performance was well received.
Kanye West and
The Who were the headliners for the Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Other notable acts who performed included
James Bay,
Lulu,
Pharrell Williams,
Clean Bandit,
Hozier,
Ella Eyre,
Lionel Richie,
Mark Ronson,
Jessie Ware,
Gregory Porter,
George Ezra,
Paloma Faith,
Mary J. Blige and
Paul Weller, as well as an appearance by the

Wellington boots from the 2015 festival were donated to the migrant camp at
Calais. appeared onstage at the 2017 Glastonbury Festival and was filmed for what would later be a scene used for his 2018 film
A Star Is Born. On 3 April 2017, it was announced the
BBC had renewed its exclusive national rights to broadcast the event until 2022. On 24 June 2017 reggae group
Toots and the Maytals were slotted for 17:30, with BBC Four scheduled to show highlights from their set. When they did not show it was suspected they missed their time slot, and BBC broadcaster Mark Radcliffe apologised on their behalf stating, "If you were expecting Toots and the Maytals – and, frankly, we all were – it seems like they were on Jamaican time or something because they didn't make it to the site on time." The group credited with coining the term "
reggae" in song was subsequently rescheduled by the Glastonbury Festival organisers giving Toots and the Maytals the midnight slot, with all other acts being shifted by one hour. and Michael Eavis together on the Pyramid Stage at the
2017 Glastonbury Festival Jeremy Corbyn, then
leader of the Labour Party, was invited to speak on the Pyramid Stage at the 2017 festival. In February 2018, festival organiser
Emily Eavis confirmed in a
BBC interview that a
plastic bottle ban could be enforced at the 2019 event for environmental reasons. Water kiosks, where festival-goers could get any type of bottle refilled, had been introduced in 2014. In February 2019, organisers confirmed the bottle ban would begin at that year's festival, encompassing all bars, traders and backstage areas. The festival had a "fallow year" in 2018 to allow the ground to recover. It returned in 2019.
Glastonbury 2019 featured new stages, art installations and areas, including a giant crane purchased from Avonmouth Docks. The Pyramid Stage was headlined by
Stormzy,
The Killers and
The Cure, with
Miley Cyrus,
Liam Gallagher,
Kylie Minogue,
Lizzo,
Lewis Capaldi,
Janet Jackson and
Billie Eilish also performing.
2020s The 2020 and 2021 festivals were cancelled because of the
COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, for what would have been the festival's 50th anniversary, the BBC broadcast a variety of acclaimed sets during the weekend of the cancelled festival, with performances by acts including
Taylor Swift,
Florence and the Machine,
Adele,
R.E.M.,
Beyoncé,
the Rolling Stones,
Jay-Z and
Billie Eilish. In 2021, Glastonbury produced a film recorded on the Glastonbury site,
Live at Worthy Farm, with performances by acts including Coldplay,
Haim, and
Damon Albarn.
Live at Worthy Farm also saw the debut of
The Smile, a new band featuring
Thom Yorke and
Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead with
Sons of Kemet drummer
Tom Skinner. The film was streamed on the Glastonbury website on 22 May and broadcast on BBC Two on 27 June 2021. The event returned in June 2022.
Billie Eilish headlined the Friday night, making her the youngest Glastonbury headline act to date.

Elton John,
Guns N' Roses and Arctic Monkeys were announced as the headliners at the Pyramid Stage for Glastonbury 2023, amongst criticism of the "all-male headliners" at the festival. It was announced in March 2023 that the
John Peel stage would be renamed to Woodsies. Arctic Monkeys returned to headline Glastonbury (Friday night) for the third time, having previously done so in 2007 and 2013. Other notable artists playing the Friday included
Royal Blood,
Fred Again,
Young Fathers,
Fever Ray,
Carl Cox and
Faithless. The mystery band listed as 'The Churn Ups' was revealed to be surprise guests the
Foo Fighters. Guns N' Roses headlined the Saturday. Other artists playing Saturday included

Loyle Carner,
Fatboy Slim and
Christine and the Queens. The afternoon 'TBA' slot at the Woodsies was revealed as
Rick Astley and
Blossoms, playing
The Smiths. The Sunday 'legends' spot was filled by Yusuf/
Cat Stevens.
Elton John headlined the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, a show which he billed as his last ever UK performance. The 2024 festival saw artists
Dua Lipa and
SZA headline the festival, as well Coldplay, who topped the bill for the fifth time. In doing so, Coldplay broke the record for most headline appearances, overtaking
The Cure who have headlined four times. On 17 November 2024, tickets for the 2025 Festival sold out in 35 minutes. Tickets cost £373.50, plus a £5 booking fee, an increase of £18.50 on 2024. In January 2025 it was reported that the festival had doubled its profit to the year March 2024, bringing in £5.9million pre-tax, donating £5.2 million to charitable organisations in the same period. On 3 January 2025,
Neil Young was confirmed as the first headliner for the
Glastonbury Festival 2025. The June 2025 festival saw controversy with the appearance Irish band
Kneecap and English rap duo
Bob Vylan. Kneecap were under police inquiry for an incident at a previous concert, leading to calls for their set to be cancelled. While the set did go on, the BBC did not broadcast it live. Kneecap also advocated for fans to "start a riot" outside the courthouse during a bandmember's trial. Bob Vylan led chants of
Free Palestine and
Death to the IDF. Both incidents led to police investigations, which were eventually dropped without charges. During Glastonbury 2025, the Eavis family announced that the festival would not be organised in 2026 to allow the natural environment to recover with the festival due to return in 2027 and this will be the first fallow year since the COVID-19 related cancellations of 2020 and 2021. == Organisation ==
