dimus Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Are there any secret / lesser known areas that people know of? Not to post their exact location but just their existence. Last year I found the underground piano bar, the huge stone dragon and tunnel under the old railway track. Places that had previously evaded me.

dimus Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yes that's the one. All they serve is scrumpy or poitín, lethal at 5:30 in the morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisque Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I swear I found a garden area with a DJ after crawling through a tunnel once unless that was at BBL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pentura Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I swear I found a garden area with a DJ after crawling through a tunnel once unless that was at BBL Either that or too much acid my friend.. On another note, I haven't come across any of these secret spots, although did find a nice place around the greenfields I think one year with all these little candles dotted around a small field, nice spot to relax at night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisque Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Either that or too much acid my friend.. Just asked & it was BBL but we did find a similar thing round the back of Apple Smuggerlz Edited April 30, 2014 by Couchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coma girl Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Found the tunnel the second year I went and found the Underground Piano bar but my friends were being dicks and wouldn't go in. Want to try and find the Dragon this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 The tunnel and garden definitely existing a few years ago (maybe 2011), somewhere in Shangri-La I thought.... Iona Camp is probably one of the last old skool Glasto regular institutions that I remember still remaining and in its original spot. Look around top of Avalon exit over the railway line.... There are often candles floating near the Dragon - perchance you may have been near but not realised it.... The Greenfields often hosts a spiral or maze delineated by candles or tee-lights in those candle bags. Also there is a pond not far from there also sporting similar illumination at night...

nowyouregideon Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 We found some gazeebo covered in UV paint blaring drum and bass behind some kind of food stall. Was pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurrahBrother Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yes, there is a dragon/water feature (obviously dragon feild) Flushing loo's? Top of the Big Ground The Strummer stone, at the back of the Strummerville area (not that big, off to one side) There is the Rabbit Hole (previous years top of the park) thoise I have found, could never find the Piano bar.

joy114 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 We found the piano bar last year while it was still being constructed. Never managed to get in, but we did sit outside listening to someone playing sea shanties on a piano in the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incident Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I won't go into detail, but I'll just say this - investigate the stalls in the Craft Field. There's at least 1 that has much more to it behind the facade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyds Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 The piano bar seems to keep moving, I've followed all kinds of different directions but I've never found it, and I think it was a lot bigger last year than previously I think the first year I went (2009) I ended up at what I assume was a Rabbit Hole party (although it wasn't through the Rabbit Hole bar) on the thursday (I think) I've not found anything like it since. My advice would be, if a man offers you a carrot in exchange for a riddle, it's probably worth answering the riddle. I'm intrigued by the tunnel under the railway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmsieXxX Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 So we don't know exactly where the piano bar is? My friends only found It once in 2011! I'm intrigued by a lot of these places!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's at the Southern end of Dragon Field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alframsey Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I've found every place mentioned in this thread apart from the tunnel under the railway... I found one tiny little tunnel which was just a link between fields either side of the tracks but nothing worth speaking about. Where do you bloody find it? Oh and the Rabbit Hole, never been able to locate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and the Rabbit Hole, never been able to locate that.Sounds like you did find the tunnel then.It's mostly notable as a (really good) shortcut from Green Futures to Greenpeace. A couple of times in the past some effort has been made to do something with it - decoration, ambient sounds, etc but ultimately it's still just a foot tunnel.

Rodbull Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Found all of these bar whatever is hidden in the craft fields. This is why you have got to love Glasto. Found the underground piano bar last year while the wife and daughter where doing there own thing. Took the mrs back later and it was closed!

suzie sue Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 The rabbit hole is the best fun ever, sat up on the hill watching people crawling in and out, trying to work out how to get in, intrigued to find some of these other places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
