THE 50th anniversary edition of the Glastonbury festival was originally set to take place June 24- 28 at its usual home of Worthy Farm in Somerset. While the British festival has since been cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, the V&A Museum has announced a seven-day online celebration of "all things Glastonbury."

As the personal memories of those that attended Glastonbury are just as important as the artists that performed, the V&A Museum has issued a call for music enthusiasts to send in their own memories from the festival.
