Glastonbury 2022

It may have slipped your attention, but Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts made its long-awaited return a couple of weeks ago.

Of course, it would only have passed you by if you had been out of the UK for the month of June, such is the attention the festival receives. And justly so; it’s the biggest collation of creators and fans of music in the world and for that reason, alongside many others, it stands apart.

Restrictions may have lifted nearly a year ago, but the sense that the pandemic is finally over would only have been put to bed upon Glastonbury’s return (let’s not mention that COVID numbers are spiking once again, in part down to super-spreader events such as this).

As such, more so than ever, there was a distinct atmosphere of celebration and communion. Traditionally, the festival starts slowly with punters dripping in from Wednesday to Friday morning but this year, the place was packed from the word go, those lucky enough to be the holders of the golden ticket having waited for nearly three years to cash it in. Revellers revel, dancers dance and drinkers drink.
