Glastonbury Festival Could Be Delayed By Two Years, Says Michael Eavis
It read: “With great regret, we must announce that this year’s Glastonbury Festival will not take place, and that this will be another enforced fallow year for us.
“In spite of our efforts to move Heaven & Earth, it has become clear that we simply will not be able to make the Festival happen this year. We are so sorry to let you all down.
“As with last year, we would like to offer all those who secures a ticket in October 2019 the opportunity to roll their £50 deposit over to next year, and guarantee the chance to buy a ticket for Glastonbury 2022.

“We are very appreciative of the faith and trust placed in us by those of you with deposits, and we are very confident we can deliver something really special for us all in 2022!
“We thank you for your incredible continued support and let’s look forward to better times ahead.
“With love, Michael & Emily.”
The 2020 festival was cancelled last March during the first national lockdown.
Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa and Camila Cabello were set to play the iconic Worthy Farm venue.
It is unclear if the same line up will perform in 2022.
