I am so sorry to announce this, the festival is cancelled. Source, one of Michaels daughters who is a friend of mine.

Fun while it lasted! Just praying our 2020 deposit carries on for a 2021 ticket.

Are we expecting an official announcement on this shortly?

I mean, with your history and post count here I don't know why you would lie, but really wanna wait for something official 

[FloorFiller]

Seemed inevitable but still devastating to see it written down like that regardless. 

[grilladelphia]

it aint over til its over

[jonnyisRFC]

In a selfish way, I really hope they carry tickets over to 2021.

Ohhhh please don't be true! I mean of course it was going to be but still don't like to hear it ☹️

[Splatt]

Not surprising and the right call (not that they had a choice). There are much more important issues that we all face, but crikey I’m gonna miss my trip to the farm this year. It’s going to be a bleak summer. Stay safe all.

I'd guess there's a few calls they needs to make before they go public, but I'd also guess that if Michael is telling his older daughter it's cancelled an announcement can't be too far away.

Stay strong everyone ... together we will get through it

I’m guessing that’s 100% cancelled, and not postponed?

Have you had any word  from any of your usual sources Neil?

Pretty sure this is genuine then?

OP has a history of being in the know with things Glastonbury related, and I can’t see any reason why they’d lie. 

[PDAD]

Absolutely gutted. Up until probably mid last week I was feeling quite positive about it still, but its been a shit week by all accounts and I'm not surprised. It's the hope that kills you.

Yep made a real effort to have a bunch of good stuff lined up for summer and within the space of a week it’s all gone to bollocks. Still struggling to get my head around all this - it’s absolutely mental that it’s come to this.
