eviepeach Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Sunset is one of my favourite times. The anticipation about the night ahead, you can usually feel the magic and excitement in the crowds. I cannot wait for sunset at Glastonbury. I like sunrise and I like looking around in the daylight and just seeing how completely mashed everyone else is around me but I always feel a bit sad because the night is over and we are one day closer to going home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucyginger Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Another vote for both here! Bloody love watching sunset, and then sunrise. The two most magical parts of the day. Don't forget it's Solstice on the Wednesday this year, it's at 5.24am. Cue the queue solstice celebrations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fladog Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 The time around sunset is amazing, as the suns going down you can feel the whole festival is coming up ready for the night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeltg Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Always both for me, always been a night owl and Glastonbury is just the best place for it. I find the best time to sleep is between 7am to 10.30 ish, the least going on. Hangovers seem to be kind to me at the festival for some reason!

RayC Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 I tend to be in 2 very different states at sunset and sunrise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpo Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Whichever early morning is the likeliest for a clear sky, that's when I hope to be up a Glastonbury hill with my friends for a sunrise this year. For the first time. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Zepplin Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Sunset for me, always in the land of nod when the sun comes up. I need a good sleep otherwise I struggle through the day but music and drink keep me going. Not drinking this year though so probably won't make it to the naughty corner and will call it a night after the headliners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkic Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Sunset just pips it for me, simply because I know it's the beginning of another magical night at Glastonbury. I've experienced some beautiful sunrises up at The Stone Circle, but you know it's time to go back to a hot tent for a terrible sleep for a few hours!

Glorious colours amongst the clouds that made the blues seem brighter and lined the clouds with gold. Took this picture last year on my way to see Richard Hawley on the Friday night...

Doesn't feel right. Its the same when they turn the lights on in the club. The lighting and accumulated sweat really takes away the glamour.

mashedonmud Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 I arrive on the Tuesday. I'll be raising a glass (plastic) to the sunset that first eve and staying awake to witness the wednesday morning madness.I shall then endeavour to witness all sunrises and all sunsets throughout. This can be acheived (and has been) with power naps during lesser acts at the pyramid stage in the afternoon. Managed to sleep through Paloma Faith and Pharrel Williams one year. Perfect way to see their shows. Because i'm nappieeeee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lighting and accumulated sweat really takes the glamour away from us all. Much worse with sunlight I think. I've felt the same when leaving a club in summer and it's intensely bright and warm outside. So wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
