Glastonbury has been shelved for the second successive year.
Michael Eavis isn’t ruling out the possibility of a Glastonbury event on a much smaller scale taking place in September.
Co-organisers Michael and Emily yesterday confirmed the news that had been looking increasingly likely during the past few weeks, that Glastonbury 2021 wouldn’t be going ahead, but with a beady eye on the event’s 50th anniversary, Michael Eavis remains hopeful that something could still happen.
“I would like to do something smaller somewhere around the anniversary date of when we started, which was the 18th of September 1970. I would like to consider possibly doing something around that time.”

Bad news for festival fans, as the iconic Glastonbury festival has been cancelled for the second year in a row.
Thanks to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, organisers announced the sad news earlier today (Thursday January 21st).
They tweeted: With great regret, we must announce that this year’s Glastonbury Festival will not take place, and that this will be another enforced fallow year for us. Tickets for this year will roll over to next year. Full statement below and on our website. Michael & Emily
