First held in 1970 the day after Jimi Hendrix died, Glastonbury lasted over two days and before long “word had got around”. A Blues festival at the Bath & West Showground had inspired Michael Eavis to begin a festival of his own although on a smaller scale. Glastonbury has steadily grown over the past four decades to become the most iconic festival on the planet now drawing over 170,000 people to Pilton in Somerset each summer for a celebration of music, art, and culture. All our Glastonbury posters are acts that have headlined at Glastonbury, are 100% original and exclusive to The Original Poster Shop.
