Shangri-La is an area that's one massive immersive installation, a vast interactive fictional world brought to life by a creative team of over 1,500 crew, performers and artists. It is an entire realm to explore, with layer upon layer of creativity, This year is the third of the The Shafterlife story arc. Developing the idea of heaven and hell with contemporary sins and salvations.
Shangri-La, part of the late night South East 'naughty corner' of the Festival have revealed that 2015 is the year of the Shang Re-election and they want to know what YOU would do better. This year’s story aims to help people connect with the political process and demonstrate that politics can be for them and by them.
It’s 2015 and in reality there are seven political leaders and not a safe pair of hands among them, but in Shangri-La they create their own reality.
Each Nano-venue has become a political party, and everyone here has a point to make. There is nothing too silly or too serious to be said, there is only the process of activism, the skies filled with banners, the streets packed with protesters and placards.
Shangri-Heaven is a sanctuary for all those who refuse to dance the political hokey-cokey of the Shang Re-election. The people of Shangri-Heaven, have made their own paradise simply by believing that they could and then getting on with it.
Shangri-La invites everyone to stand up for what they believe in by sharing their message for change. If you post your message online we will incorporate it into the many placards, banners and letters of hopes and dreams that form part of the Shangri-La installation at Glastonbury Festival.
Both Heaven and Hell have an abundant array of mind expanding and dance inspiring entertainment on offer from 6pm ‘til 5-6am daily. You can stomp the night away at the epic open air Hell stage, relax inside the tranquil gardens of Heaven or disappear in the hexagonal maze of Nano venues, each offering a unique experience to explore.
Due to its overwhelming popularity, attendees are advised to experience Shangri-La early in the evening in order to avoid the crowds after midnight.
