GLASTONBURYGlastonbury is a pretty town in the south west of England. You can see tourists in the town centre at any time of the year because it has some famous monuments, such as Glastonbury Abbey and St John’s Church. It is a small, quiet town and it doesn’t have a cinema, a theatre, or a night club.

However, every year in June, around 150,000 music fans arrive for ‘Glasto’, the world famous Glastonbury Festival. The festival started in 1970 and takes place at Worthy Farm, around 10 kms from the town of Glastonbury. It’s four days of music from some of the world’s top performers: singers like Beyoncé, and bands like U2 and Coldplay.

Glastonbury is very big and you can walk around and hear different music in different places. Over 300 singers and bands come to play their music here so it has nearly everything. Rock, reggae, and rap are some of the things you can hear, but there isn’t any classical music. The Glastonbury Arts Festival is for people who like classical music, but that’s in August.

Glastonbury is an outdoor festival, so it’s great when the weather is good and the sun is shining. But British summers are very changeable and it sometimes rains a lot during the festival. However, the fans aren’t worried – they sing and dance in the rain while the bands are playing. You don’t usually see sad faces or umbrellas at Glastonbury when it rains.

It’s sometimes quite difficult to get tickets for the Glastonbury festival because lots of people want to go to it. If you can’t get a ticket, you can always watch it on TV or on the internet, or listen to it on the radio.

Example: Glastonbury is in the south east of England. A True ■ B False ■✓ C Doesn’t say ■1 You can see a film at the cinema in Glastonbury. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■2 It is an expensive town to live in. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■3 ‘Glasto’ takes place in June. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■4 The festival is about twenty years old. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■5 It takes place near Glastonbury. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■6 ‘Glasto’ is a three-day music festival. A True ■ B False ■ C Doesn’t say ■
