Green Area

The Green Fields are the very heartbeat of the Festival – the soul of the Festival - where free thinking prevails and creativity, community and co-operation turn into beautiful things. This enchanting area still encapsulates the spirit and ideals that inspired the early Pilton festivals. The skyline filled with peace flags, wind generators and trees will welcome you. Green ideas and innovations, colourful crafts, fair trade and children’s fun are all represented in this complex network of small fields that follow the contours of this great site.

The Green Fields bring together what is best in enthusiasm, creativity and shared ideas, representing every aspect of caring for yourself and all in this small world.

The Greens are not quiet about politics. They believe passionately about peace and the planet - indeed some of the greatest purveyors of social justice alive today can be found here. They encourage spiritual values and political beliefs, which offer a blueprint for living in sympathy with other beings that inhabit our earth. Everyone faces conflicts and problems on a daily basis, but in a small yet important way, we can all take steps to overcome these obstacles with compassion and understanding. We can learn not only to respect but appreciate the value of our differences.

The Green Fields labyrinth holds something for everyone and comprises: The Greenpeace Field, the Green Kids’ area, the Green Futures Field, The Poetry Tent, The Craft Field, The Healing Field, The Field of Avalon, The Glade, The Croissant Neuf Stage, The Tipi Field and Lost Vagueness. Information about each of these is available separately in the green zone.

At the top of the Green Fields is King's Meadow - a sacred space – a field of outstanding natural beauty that has become the spiritual centre of the Festival. Here you can observe the sheer wonder of the entire festival and take time to unwind amidst the beautiful sculptures or find a quiet space for reflection. As you savour the atmosphere of the eco-friendly fields we hope you find something in our simple message to take away with you.
