Run by Michael Eavis (of Glastonbury Festival) for over ten years, and set in the grounds of Glastonbury Abbey, it has seen many memorable performances over the years.

This unique event has grown in stature over the years and is already a high spot in the musical calendar of the South West. It's a real occasion, with lights, candelabra, picnics, and a fireworks finale on the Sunday night.

Saturday night will see Status Quo, and Bjorn Again entertaining the crowds - SOLD OUT.
Sunday has Aled Jones hosting the concert and performing with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, who are returning with a performance of popular classics, bringing back the original concept of the Extravaganza, alongside guests Jo Appleby, Andrew Rees and the Corelli Quartet. Myleene Klass has been forced to withdraw.
