Episode 15 - Playing at Glastonbury and building sustainability and accessibility into festivals all over the country
How to Build a FestivalShow Notes
Our last pre-Glastonbury pod, and we were chuffed to sit down with Andrew Lansley, a man who has played Glastonbury many times and also works with festivals all over the country to help build sustainability and accessibility into the delivery of the festival. We ask what it’s actually like to perform at Glasto, and dig in to some of the great initiatives going on at festivals including Cheltenham Festivals, Glastonbury, 2000 Trees and others to make a better experience for everyone.
