So, before one and all get carried away with 2022 being 'fucking glorious' 🙄, i wouldnt count your chickens just yet. Wise up and think again. Buddy, I trolled this site before, it doesn’t get you anywhere all it does is piss people off and make you look like a jerk... please stop, people on this forum have really struggled with COVID and Glastonbury is the light at the end of this long dark tunnel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strongly suspect it will run 2022 - 2026 with 2027 as the next scheduled fallow year. Defo, but can even see them going on a 5 year run as they’ve essentially had a 2 year fallow and also one festival since the last fallow year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotchilidog Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 Given the dreadful start to the year my optimism had subsided rapidly over the last couple of weeks. That said I think it is the correct decision and I hope this has minimised the financial hit the festival has had to take this year. Roll on 2022 when Cinders we shall go to the ball! Let's let the vaccine rollout and lockdowns take their course and we can potentially look forward to a good second half of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fallow count will start again from 2022 and run right through until 2026 as you said. Edited January 21, 2021 by DareToDibble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FakeEmpire Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 It's a devastating blow in an already difficult month but ultimately I am grateful that this has been communicated to us early. The roller coaster of speculation probably wasn't helping any of us and it's better to know now and start looking forward to realist, better times. The deja vu is a killer but we've got the vaccines now - we will get there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanoL Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 I am kinda relieved. Wouldn't want to choose between going and feeling uncomfortable, and not going at all. 52 minutes ago, Pinhead said: Possibly. Many of its creative staff may have left for different or steadier employment by then however. I wonder what sort of festival it will be if / when it does return - maybe quite different from what has gone before in look and design. That could be a very good thing. I think parts of the festival are getting quite tired at this point and a shake-up would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) It's the right decision. Lives count for more. I put up a new wall calendar at the start of the year. Usually it's peppered with festivals and holidays. At the moment it's completely blank and likely to remain that way for a while.
