Glastonbury generally occurs over the last full weekend of June, from the Wednesday to the Sunday.
The festival takes place on Worthy Farm, 6 miles/9.5 kilometres east of the town of Glastonbury.
The festival includes over 100 stages on 800 acres with 4.8 miles of fence and a crowd capacity of 210,000+. (It's big. Very, very big.)
Each year there are over 125 stages. Good luck visiting them all!
It very much varies depending on time of day, weather, inebriation, etc.
First you have to register, then pray to the ticket gods in early October when they go on sale. There's also a resale the following April.
Sunday-only tickets are made available to Pilton residents.
These are sold separately to the general and coach tickets for a select number of areas around the festival.
Your best bet is probably stewarding or traffic management.
