Glastonbury Festival Of Contemporary Performing Arts - Areas - Field of Avalon

Big changes prevail in 2011 at Avalon, due to the new pedestrian one way system leading to Arcadia and Shangri-La, in place between the hours of 11pm and 3am.  We have re-orientated the field to accommodate this and, thus, even the most regular of Festival goers may lose their bearings!

Our regular activities, as well as a range of new games and workshops, will take place in our new, exciting, vibrant and now larger village fete area,. Join the fun of tradition with a twist, team games galore, learn to stilt walk, hook a duck, win a coconut, make a puppet or butterfly wings or just immerse yourself in silliness and hilarity while covering yourself in pegs or wanging a welly!

Take in and marvel at all the art installations on your way to the main Avalon stage where you will find a strong, eclectic line-up of folk and roots influenced artists, together with Festival favourites.

Avalon Café
The biggest and longest running vegetarian café on site. It has a fantastic selection of good wholesome food served around the clock with a fully programmed stage. Lots of well known acts alongside some exciting newer up and coming acts, as well as a few surprises. Open from Wednesday with evening acoustic entertainment.

The Avalon Inn
Glastonbury Festival’s first and only spit and sawdust, half timbered, old English pub. Real ale, cider or even a cup of mead served by a buxom wench with storytelling, musicians, magicians and wandering buskers.
