Glastonbury Festival organisers considering a flag banfollowing the banning of flags at this weekend's Reading and LeedsTuesday 25th August 2009 Reading and Leeds festivals organiser Melvin Benn, who has banned festival goers from taking flags to this weekend's Reading and Leeds festivals, has revealed, to the BBC (here) that he has been talking to Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis about introducing a ban at next year's Glastonbury Festival.
Dozens of flags greeted big acts at Glastonbury this year, with fans complaining about the view during Bruce Springsteen's headline set in particular. "You couldn't see the acts," Mr Benn explains. "The flags were everywhere. There have always been flags but not to the level that there has been. And the flags have become very long and tall." There is no confirmation that a ban on flags will be in place at next year's event. eFestivals will bring you more news on the situation once it becomes available.
