The Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts or simply Glastonbury was first held near the town of Glastonbury in 1970 and immediately received an unofficial name – "British Woodstock".
Glastonbury is one of the main musical events He is known not only for rock concerts, but also for performances by dance, theater, folklore and circus groups. The number of people wishing to get here is constantly growing. Nowadays, the Glastonbury Festival is attended by up to 200 thousand people. And this is despite the fact that tickets are getting more expensive every year.
After 1997, water and mud became one of the hallmarks of the festival. The fact is that the festival takes place on the territory of a private farm, next to the source of the Whitelake River. Floods occur periodically here, during which tent cities literally float, but this does not scare away guests and musicians.
