Now in its 54th year, Glastonbury is the largest greenfield music and performing arts festival in the world. Running from 26-30 June at Worthy Farm, it was home to over 200,000 festival goers, looking to enjoy a weekend of fantastic music, tasty food and of course the Great British weather! This year’s headliners Dua Lipa, Coldplay and American R&B singer SZA graced the Pyramid Stage, while Canadian country star Shania Twain performed the coveted legends slot on Sunday afternoon. Other artists onstage included LCD Soundsystem, Little Simz, Burna Boy, Idles, PJ Harvey and The National, and the festival also featured a diverse range of arts, from theatre and circus acts to poetry and visual installations.
This year Jill Furmanovsky and Stuart Nicholls were there to capture Glastonbury in all its glory. Check out our Instagram and Facebook feeds to see their photos and catch up on the action from Worthy Farm. Here are some of their photo highlights.

Jarvis Cocker performing one of his signature moves when Pulp played Glastonbury in 2011. Pulp's electrifying reunion set lit up the Park Stage and Jarvis Cocker's charismatic presence, and hits like "Common People," electrified the crowd. Muddy fields couldn't dampen spirits as fans revelled in nostalgia and their legendary festival performance reaffirmed Pulp's iconic status.
Liam Gallagher owning the stage whilst headlining with Oasis at the Glastonbury Festival in 1995. Oasis delivered a legendary performance on the Pyramid Stage, cementing their status as Britpop icons. Liam Gallagher's raw vocals and Noel's guitar brilliance fueled anthems like "Live Forever." The muddy, euphoric crowd sang along, marking this set as a defining moment in both the festival and Oasis's career.
Bob Dylan captured with his classic stare whilst performing on the Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival in 1998.
Jill recalls, "I met him at Glastonbury in 1998. He invited me to photograph him on the Pyramid stage. It had been a particularly wet and muddy weekend. Bob had to walk to the stage in wellies and change into his signature cowboy boots onstage.
I didn't really get deeply into Dylan's music until I heard "Time Out of Mind" in 1998, so I was hearing a lot of the songs he played at Glastonbury for the first time. 'Tangled up in Blue' blew me away
Paul Weller performing on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury in 2015. He delivered a stellar performance captivating the crowd with his energetic set. His powerful vocals and dynamic guitar played classics from his extensive career, including hits from The Jam and The Style Council.
Jill Furmanovsky created this special joiner image of Bruce Springsteen playing Glastonbury in June 2009 with the E Street band. Two images of Bruce captivate a delighted audience!
The Pyramid Stage and Glastonbury Tor beautifully captured by Jill Furmanovsky in 2000. The Pyramid Stage is Glastonbury's iconic centrepiece, towering over Worthy Farm since 1971. Hosting legendary acts from Bowie to Beyoncé, its grand design and stellar acoustics attract global talent.
