The Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza returns today and tomorrow and there are still tickets available for those who fancy an evening tonight with the much-loved London band Squeeze, supported by the effervescent Lulu.

The line up tomorrow, Saturday 9th, is topped by indie-popsters The Feeling who are supported by Kate Nash. The Feeling are a great live band that revels in playing in the open air, and both nights are sure to have an amazing atmosphere.

Farmer Michael Eavis who organises the event has always ensured that the production quality of the Extravaganza is second to none. The sound is always excellent and visually these concerts are stunning, with large daylight screens, creative lighting, and fireworks each night.

Glastonbury Abbey is set amid 36 acres of parkland in the centre of the town of Glastonbury, Somerset, the magnificent ruins of the Abbey provide a perfect setting for these three concerts. This unique event has grown in stature over the years and is already a high spot in the musical calendar of the South West.
