Flags and the Spirit of Community

lags flying in front of the Pyramid Stage have become a vibrant tradition at Glastonbury, especially in recent years. Some consider it inconsiderate as the flags can obstruct the view for other festival-goers, making it challenging to see the performers. Despite this, many believe the festival wouldn’t be the same without the colourful flags.

They add to the festival’s atmosphere, representing attendees’ diverse backgrounds and creativity. This tradition embodies Glastonbury’s communal spirit, where individual expression and collective celebration blend seamlessly, creating a unique and inclusive environment that music fans from all over the world cherish and return to year after year.
