Glastonbury festival is all set to go virtually this weekend as they have just released their virtual guide on the Glastonbury official website!
Though the original festival was cancelled back in March due to ongoing coronavirus pandemic, a virtual event will now be taking place from 25-29th June in celebration of the festival’s 50th-anniversary.
Here’s everything you need to know about the livestreamed event:
- The BBC will broadcast the highlights of previous performances from 25-28 June, including performances by Coldplay, Beyonce, Adele and many more.
- Fans will also be able to explore individual Glastonbury areas such as Block 9, The Common, The Glade and Unfairground – who will each be offering up live-streams and new content over the weekend.
- This online event also includes 2020 mainstage Spotify playlists, a portal allowing punters to upload their photo memories and allow fans to join in V&A online exhibition.
- Glasto Latino will host streamed dance classes where they will share daily footage of the action from 2019. Those behind The Park’s Stonebridge Bar, meanwhile, will be inviting their customers to enjoy special guest mixes and participate in “communal Twitter drinks”.
- Glastonbury’s Emerging Talent Competition 2020 has announced R.A.E as the winner of this competition.
“Huge thanks to all of the areas and stages who’ve put together so much fantastic virtual entertainment for you to enjoy. We hope you have a wonderful #GlastoAtHome experience and we can’t wait to welcome you back here in 2021.” A statement from Glastonbury reads.
