Well it's certainly different, question is - what's it for? Perhaps just decoration, I can't imagine they'll have screens at that height. 

Could be video screens. The Glastonbury main stages are starting to look a bit dated compared to the edge to edge screens at Creamfields etc.. They get used as part of the lighting rig rather than just video camera feed.

Was this taken on a camera from 1932?

It's a watercolour painting from The Park's artist in residence :)

Wow.  Never seen those before.  They are very impressive!

The staging, lighting and visuals at Dance festivals are on another level in general.

I mean heck just compare most of the main stages to Arcadia in terms of production. Esprcially when some of thw Glasto stages are kinda lackluster (looking at you Other Stage, imagine a Chem Bros or Tame Impala show with stages and screens as impressive at the ones from Creamfields)

Aye, true that. Went to Mad Cool last year and Tame Imapla's live visuals on those sort of screens they have at dance festivals was something else.

Another angle of the Park Stage. Photo cropped from Emily's Instagram post.Screenshot_20190513-200524_Instagram.jpg.06ad43ba329be96e633e21f89da8763c.jpg

It looks as though it's about to topple over - must be the excess weight.

 

Edit: On second thoughts that's probably me I'm referring to.

    • Same’s happened at MSG recently with Rush and Phish alternating nights. I guess each band has its own unique production so their riggers will be kept busy
    • The rumour was uk arena tour late this year.  Same as Charli xcx cant be announced until Reading headline is done.   
    • Latest from the sun at least is that harry is still headlining but Olivia has turned down a spot next year to work on new music and hope for 2028.   So they can't have Fender, Fontaines, Harry, Olivia and Madonna. 
    • I mean I don't think EC and FFDP are borderline sub, they wouldn't be any lower now.   2025 is about as strong as Bloodstock gets yet this year only one headline would sub and the others would play 3rd down or lower.    Machine Head wouldn't sub at Download regardless of rarity, they don't sell enough tickets and I'm not sure Gojira would sub either. Their last UK tour was a mix of smaller arenas and academy dates. Ally Pally being the only London date, not even Wembley Arena. 
    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall
