My last thought is. I actually always have missed the glade being the original glade. One of my first and favouite raves was in the original Glade. The g stage faced out into the trees and there was no roof just the odd tarpaulin, lights and flags but mostly those magical trees. Paul oakenfold 98/99. Hybrid live. If they are going back to this vibe with open trees, then they could be onto something. But if they just choose to make it a bar (with a roof and therefore no tree views) then they've just ruined one of the last proper naturally lovely places of the festival. Dancing with the sunset through that glade ... Edited May 4, 2022 by danbailey80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And where it normally is might be a bar or seating area? Who knows what changes 2022 will bring to the Glade... and the rest of Glastonbury for that matter. I'm looking forward to finding out and I bet I won't be disappointed. Meanwhile I love the speculation going on in this thread 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were lucky enough to get a table it was a great place to to drink for a couple of hours and soak in the great atmosphere and watch the varied entertainment. Use this link to listen to Vent, recorded at the Pussy Parlour in 2009 by the BBCAnnie Nightingale Show recorded at the Pussy Parlour This structure was at Bestival a few times, back when it was in the Isle of Wight.

I thought it must have been used elsewhere Stuie, thanks, I wonder where it is now, maybe these structures fail after a while form wear and tear ?

I think it may be the same structure that is used as the Spiegeltent each year at the Brighton Fringe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tent never had an identity and became increasingly poorly booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not 100% sure now… maybe it was the same. Brighton and Bestival look similar but maybe Glasto one was different, or just refurbished!

The Stage is confirmed as still there just with a different catering outlet attached. Yes, it’s the flying machine cafe who are operating it, stage is still there. They were up at Worthy View last time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 I can't see that there's space for Glade Lounge and Spaceport and The Glade Stage in that area any more. They might be able to move Spaceport down a bit, but it wouldn't surprise me if the rumours of Glade Cafe going actually referred to Glade Lounge.

Would it be missed? I went in it a fair bit in 2017 as a mate was working on the bar and went and had a dance on the Thurs evening in 2019 to some 90s bangers….it’s not that big and gets very hot as it’s an enclosed venue. Possibly will be better utilised as a covered outdoor stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
