Get your wellies out it’s that time of year again, Glastonbury Festival opens on June 24th 2015. The most famous music festival in the world is taking place in Somerset, England and we can’t wait. Initially a free festival inspired by the ethos of the hippie culture and free festival movements in the 1970’s the festival has taken place almost every year since and has continued to grow in popularity (and price!). To celebrate the largest Greenfield festival in the world we’re going to take a look back at Glastonbury over the years and share with you some of its awesomeness (you might spot some changing fashions too!).
