Over the weekend, approximately 190,000 people made their way to Worthy Farm in western England to attend the 2009 Glastonbury Festival. Attendees came to see performances at what is billed as “Europe’s largest open-air music festival” on many stages over four days – headliners included Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and a reunited Blur. Rainy weather did little to dampen the mood, as attendees enjoyed themselves in tent cities, concert performances, dance tents, and the surrounding countryside of Somerset, England. Collected here are a handful of images from this year’s festival. (33 photos total)
We are an interesting lot, us humans.
Very interesting photos. It looks like an amazing event. But, I couldn’t help wondering how on Earth you could ever locate your own tent after wandering around to all the different music venues–especially if you’ve consumed anything intoxicating.
