I'd love to see some drone light shows

They did this on the Friday night in 2016!

This man hates fun.

Are fireworks fun?

Well I assumed he just meant the firework show was shit/boring, not the stuff he expanded on in later posts, so fair play.

Crows Nest starts up Thursday, should be a bit of fun in there leading into the sunset hour.

If they're still allowed to do it, watching the kids play zorb football in the circus field on wednesday afternoon with a beer is a great way to kill an hour.

Wednesday I tend to mill around, eat some great food, take in the sights and just have a bit of an explore. I will watch the opening ceremony, then we tend to head to the South East Corner, to just sit, have a few drinks and take it all in. 

Thursday is probably my favourite day. I inevitably end up in Williams Green and the Croissant Neuf for the majority of the day and evening.

There's plenty going on both days in the Green Futures, Croissant Neuf, Greenpeace area. I always spend a few hours there on the Thursday. One of my best fun experiences was the lady playing classic sing-along songs on her piano, big crowd gathered, it was great fun (Is she still around?)

As a reminder, take a look at what was on Wednesday/Thursday 2019

Will Elvana likely be there again? Looked a right laugh but missed both of his sets.

[Guy Incognito]

Is the theatre and circus field normally open on a Thursday? I can't remember.

[whitehorses]

Just follow Lekkido Lord of the lobsters and Mik Artistik around like the rest of us. And end up in Yacht Rock in William’s Green. 

[GeezLouise]

Wednesdays are for eating as many Theatre and Circus Field crumpets as humanly possible.  Sometimes with Wheel of Four Tunes on in the background.

Lekiddo Lord of the Lobsters tends to be about on the Thursday and as others have mentioned Mik Artistik Wednesday afternoon on the Croissant Neuf bandstand, other than that just have an explore and watch some random things whilst soaking up the vibes.

In 2019 Soup from Jurassic 5 and his wee funk band were playing on the Thursday in the Bread and Roses, there really are some gems to be found on the first couple of days.

I normally go for a walk, watch the burning off the pheonix and end up in The Park area I think

Thursday - bar crawl around the site.

[the wonderwhy]

Thursday is Baggy Mondays > Live Band > Live Band > Rhythm of the 90’s.

I wonder if Wheel of Four Tunes will be back this year?

They took a break in 2019...

Mik Artistik is usually on at least on the croissant neuf bandstand wednesday and rocket lounge thursday. Will probably have a 2nd or even a third gig on thursday too. 

this year im going to think about the parts of the site i wont get to on the fri-sun eg green fields and spend a bit of time there. Its a shame theatre and circus dont really open till friday.

I was going to say Rocket Lounge.

I hope they bin off the fireworks this year. 

Light show this year, innit? Surely.

Going by tour dates I'd say it's odds on. They have a run from 17-20 June, then they are in Exeter on Glasto Friday. Being that close I expect them to pop up on the farm at some point. Maybe on Thursday or on The Saturday/Sunday - maybe even both.

Not many. We start with lofty ambitions but end up getting distracted and waylaid, usually when we reach the Stonebridge.

[Avalon_Fields]

I'd still go to Glastonbury if the whole week was like Wednesday/Thursday, I really would.

I think they were on the poster Williams Green released showing what would have been on in 2020, so probably.

Not 100% sure on that but I’m sure someone will be able to correct me if I’m wrong.

That's what I think I remember too.

Yep. Best days of the festival.
