This festival is held annually at the end of June and is famous for its wide range of headlining music acts ranging from rock to (in 2004) opera. In bad weather it is also famous for its seas of mud! Actually, the festival is held near the small village of Pilton, but since Glastonbury is the nearby town and because of its New Age connections, it has lent its name to the event.
