Supporting Our Town, Our Hospice and Our Bands...We held our first event in Bury's Blind Tiger bar back in 2007 to raise funds to support our local hospice. Thanks to the continued support of our sponsors, performers and everyone who attends the festival, we are now in our eleventh year and have raised over £110,000 in support of Bury Hospice and other local causes.
Last year, over 120 bands played across 13 venues in Bury town centre. Every year we make our family-friendly event better than before and 2018 is to be no exception... stage and lineup information can be found below! |

Additional Information & safeguarding notice
This is a family-friendly event. Children are welcome to attend but under 16's must be accompanied by an adult. The event begins at midday and wristbands are available on the day from the ticket office on Castle Street near The Castle Armoury. The wristbands allow entry to ALL Glaston-Bury venues and are just seven pounds. Most stages are accessible to wheelchairs and have disabled toilet facilities. Please get in touch if you need us to provide further information.
PHOTOGRAPHY: We would politely ask you to be aware that our Media associates will be present throughout the day and will be taking photographs which will be widely shared on the internet and on social media. If you attend, there is every possibility that you could be included in a photo somewhere as our photographers take crowd shots and many of the bands will also take photos from the stage. In fact... even people who are attending as customers are likely to take photos and may accidentally snap you in the background! Local newspaper representatives will also be present and any photos which they take will appear in print and online.
As organisers, we cannot control who is taking photos at a particular time, but if you do see a photo of yourself or your family online following the event, you MUST make direct contact with the photographer and discuss your concerns with them. Anyone who has an official Glaston-Bury media pass will be made aware that they are obliged to discuss your concerns.
