Broadcaster & Internet Access Policy

The Glastonbury Festival welcomes media interest in this unique event and we do try to accommodate media coverage wherever possible. However the Festival does have a media access policy and we would be grateful if you could consider the below before suggesting any proposals to the Festival Press Officer (Jason Holmes), the Festival Office (Dick Vernon) or Glastonbury Television (Ben Challis).

A. OFFICIAL PARTNERS

We grant certain exclusive rights to the BBC and BBC Television have the exclusive right to film performances on the Pyramid Stage, the Other Stage, The Jazz World Stage and in the Dance Tent. The BBC also provide general broadcast reportage for the Festival. Glastonbury Television manages the international television rights to the Festival and BBC Radio International manages international radio distribution. As a principle the Festival retains all webcast/internet rights to the Festival. Any live web content from the Festival must be agreed in advance with the Festival. The Festival's own website (www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk) is our host website alongside our official internet partner. In addition the Radio 1 website (www.bbc.co.uk) provides general content from the festival with the Festival's consent.

Glastonbury Television will provide a 'crash edit' digi-beta PAL tape featuring approximately one minute each from four or five bands appearing on Friday night for bona-fide news broadcasters on the terms set out below if requested from the Press Office in advance.

C. OTHER BROADCASTS

As a general principle, the fewer the better ! We are sensitive to the people who come to the Festival to enjoy themselves. We will also not allow any projects to go ahead which might derogate from the rights we have granted to our Official Partners or which may effect international broadcast partners. But we will consider projects provide they can meet the following criteria: Programmes which are produced and broadcast post-festival on specific topics. No live performances may be recorded without the festival's express prior permission.

Crews must be kept to a minimum and be sensitive to the Festival public and their privacy.

We normally require a digi-beta copy of any programme for our own archive. A facility fee is normally payable for filming on-site.

D. CLIP FOOTAGE AND INTERNATIONAL SALES

Glastonbury Television manages the Festival's archive. Priority access is granted to a performer's record label or band management. Discounted rates are provided (including gratis use for artist's own EPK and promotional use). All other broadcasters and content providers (including internet) are expected to negotiate a standard commercial licence with the Festival through Glastonbury Television.
