Glastonbury 2025

Glastonbury - you’re hard work but you never disappoint.

My 6th time at the greatest place on earth, and the reason to have hope in humanity. I went with a fantastic group of friends who I love and who love music and dancing and wringing every last drop of life out of the 5 days we’re allowed to be free.

I hope you had a wonderful and peaceful Christmas break and you’re looking forward with hope into 2025.
