This year’s, five-day festival will be returning, for the first time since 2017 after a traditional fallow year, to Worthy Farm, in Somerset, between the 26th and the 30th of June 2019.

We are hugely grateful to all those great performers who have agreed to play and to be included this year’s programme. Michael (Eavis) will set the ball rocking and rolling in our wonderful Avalon Café stage.
“Days of wonderful music will follow representing the very best in the world of the contemporary roots and folk field. So come and join us – grab an ale in the legendary Avalon Inn, lie back on the grass, and enjoy a world-class act on the main stage. The Iona Community will be back offering a chat and a cup of tea, there are plenty of lovely stalls and, as always, the historic helter-skelter and all the fun of the fairground.
