There will be no Glastonbury Festival in 2001.
	The world's greatest festival is not happening this year. The festival has had years off before, and always comes back better than ever. And Glastonbury WILL be back in 2002. But this year there's a particular reason behind the decision.
Why?
Read Michael Eavis's statement on the cancellation. Read about the problems with gatecrashersat last year's festival. Read about why Michael is being prosecuted by Mendip District Council. Read about how the year off will affect local people, businesses and organisations. Read theMendip District Council Report on Glastonbury 2000. (Adobe Acrobat 4 format. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat 4 or Acrobat Reader 4 mail webmaster and include subject line "Mendip Report.") Read the Danish Government Working Party Report on Safety at Rock Festivals. (Adobe Acrobat 4 format. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat 4 or Acrobat Reader 4 mail webmaster and include subject line "Danish Report.")
What can I do about it ? Nothing will resurrect the 2001 festival. But you can help ensure the future of Glastonbury in 2002, 2003, 2004 ...
Get informed. Read about the issues and the reasons behind the cancellation. Spread the word that gatecrashing and fence-jumping is not cool, and is threatening the future of the festival and the safety of everyone on site. Convince your friends. If you've been a fence-jumper before, resolve not to do it again ! Plan ahead to buy a ticket, or volunteer for work at the festival. We are always short of recycling crew volunteers, for example.
