Glastonbury has announced the details of their brand-spanking new all-night entertainment area – Shangri La.
The area will encompass three large fields and over 40 acres, featuring 12 stages and a variety of other attractions including a village green and a number of sideshows.
The good news is that on the Friday night it will be fully licensed until 6am, providing a haven for those who will be missing the axed Lost Vagueness.
Michael Eavis said of the new area: "This is a new venture, on a par with the launch of the Park last year, and I'm really excited about it.
“These are the fields that started off as Wango Riley's, back in the old travellers' days. They've got history, character and a great track record.
"As always we are continuing to improve and expand, and we're expecting this area to provide even more fun. I can promise it'll be 100 per cent better!"
Those who wish to attend this year’s Glastonbury Festival have up until March 14 to register, before the tickets go on sale on April 6.
