Enjoy The 40th Anniversary of Glastonbury 2010

By Michael Eavais

Glastonbury is the name on everyone's lips when it comes to where to go and the best festivals to visit. The media constantly show the great times that people have there and the attractions bring people back year after year so that they can have an increasingly exciting time as each year's festivities begin. Glastonbury 2010 is going to be the best yet with even more people coming from all over the UK and beyond.

Glastonbury has an extra special anniversary coming up this year as it will be celebrating its 40th. Only the best festivals will have been going this long and continue to be successful each year. The media have rumoured after a comment made by the lead singer that Pulp will be reforming in time for the festivities to start.

Not only does the festival show many bands that have made it to the top of the charts and into your CD collection, you will also find up and coming bands that have not been signed yet. Imagine being there, seeing them at their first big performance, the place they were discovered. See the raw talent before the TV appearances and have the honour of becoming one of their first fans.

The popularity of the festival has meant that as soon as the tickets went on sale, within hours they were gone, and people even camped outside the places they were being sold to be among the first to hold this privilege. Some people who unfortunately are unable to make next years festivities have had to cancel but that is good news for those who have not yet got their tickets as they will be on sale again at the start of 2010.

No other festival meets up to the standards and the sheer overwhelming turnout of Glastonbury. People who have been to other festivals then to Glastonbury have said that nothing else meets up in comparison, with the festivities being aired on television, which shows the excitement but is nothing like the atmosphere of actually being there. With the various entertainments that is held simultaneously you can always find something that will keep you happy and occupied no matter your tastes.

The stage that is the most popular is called the pyramid stage. The reason for this is that this is the one where the people who have made their name and fame perform along with the unsigned act that wins the opportunity to play on this well known stage. Definitely venture to the other attractions though, as you do not want to like others, leave it till the last day and feel you have not enjoyed the festival in its entirety.

Everyone who is at Glastonbury is there to have a good time, and many have met up with old friends and made new ones that they have continued to stay in contact with and share their experiences for years after.

If getting to one with nature is not your idea of fun, but you would still like in on the action, then there are lots of options of accommodation that do not involve pitching your tent. You can stay at one of the B&B's or go all out in one of the fully catered hotels in the area, and who knows? You may be having breakfast with the next big performance.

There is also a film tent which is great for both young and old alike, and the best thing about it is that they also show 3D films so you can be part of the action without even leaving your seat. It is the mornings that you will usually find viewing for younger people then in the evenings you will find both films and documentaries so there is bound to be something for everyone. - 18423
