Glastonbury to have 'silent disco'

Tuesday 29th March 2005


Glastonbury Festival is to have a 'silent disco', reports the BBC.

It's to be done using a free set of headphones complete with bass, volume and treble controls, which will be given to people at the dance tent after the main music curfew*, meaning they can have the music as loud as they like without any danger of upsetting nearby residents.

The idea was Emily Eavis', but great minds must think alike: 'MrDigs' suggested the idea on our Glastonbury forums on 21st December last year.

Tickets for the Festival go on sale this coming Sunday - see here for the details.

For the very best line-up information, check out our Glastonbury rumours, and listen to those bands using the Festivals Sound Generator.


*The curfew on the major stages is 00:30 on Friday & Saturday night, & midnight on Sunday.
