I guess this answers the question of what the towers are for? Glad we still get the fireworks though

Still dont think the towers are for drones.  Apparently the launch field is near Toms field crew camping (from Glasto cam thread)

Sensible that they have set it up for best viewing in the pyramid field., everyone will be there

If they did that then i would feel sorry for anyone shrooms

It was also stated previously that the best place to view the fireworks was from Pyramid or Other. I know a drone show is different but is this at least in part for crowd management, and in practice there will be a fairly decent view from elsewhere such as park or greenpeace.....?  Possibly an obvious question but not very knowledgeable on drones or their shows!

Anyone want to guess what shapes the drones will form? I’m guessing… pyramid triangle, the tor and maybe Michael Eavis’s head? What else could they have a go at…

Ah just saw someone suggested his head earlier 👍

It was a complete waste of time. Dragged everyone to the pyramid field for 8 mins of f**k all. Fireworks a lot better

There is a video up on YouTube if you want to watch it in full with a soundtrack of people chatting in a campsite!

Not as gutted to have missed this now to be honest... obviously would be a million percent better sat on the farm,  pissed with your mates but still.
