Who wants to be the first brave soul amongst ticket holders to suggest how we change our signatures with “Glastonbury - 2020” in them? 😭

Keep it as tribute to our fallen soldier. Glastonbury 2020 we hardly knew ye.

Just spoke to someone. Told them about this thread and they said that they wouldn't have told me otherwise, but yes, its off. They are pretty central to the organisation. 

Hold your horses . Someone else said that there's a multi agency meeting tomorrow. So with what I hear , I really don't know. Sorry for supplying two totally conflicting bits of information.

Much love to all of you. This is really sad (expected, but doesn't help) news. It's ok to feel absolutely crushed by this. Hold on to the fact that we've got one hell of a 'can you believe that virus thing...' conversation to be had around the cider bus one day.

I got through............for the first time in years..............

Next year may not be an option for me which is why I was putting so much on this year. There was a strong chance this would have been my final Glastonbury.

Ugh this hurts

Exactly! I might work on an outfit as outlandish as yours for next year! Gonna pick up the guitar which I haven't touched in a few years too. 

But remember everyone, keep talking to people, even if its on here.

All the suckers so busy loading up on toilet paper and beans that they forgot about the essential in this time: glue! 

Glue's coming back. Nature's glue.

I'd hope they postpone it until later in the year but I don't hold much hope for that. After getting the teaser for what we were expecting lineup wise. Its utterly devastating to know we may not get that now. It was gearing up to be such a fantastic festival.

I am completely clueless... what would a meeting with numerous agencies like be about. would this be to look at ways of making it work or just the best way to call it off/postpone it/rollover to next year etc?

I’m going to get a big poster framed of the lineup, it was a beautiful thing and deserves to be remembered

This genuinely making my bottom lip wobble! So much love for this

Haha! I am devastated like everyone else but I must say surprised if they’ve taken the decision so early. We don’t know all the ins and outs of money but I just thought they may give it until at least the balance payment.

Don't know whether this helps or night but I've been thinking about the partying that's going to be done once this is all over. It's going to be like the World Cup, Christmas and everybody's birthdays have all come at once.
