Glastonbury Festival Of Contemporary Performing Arts - Areas - The Greencrafts Field

The Greencrafts Field is the place to go to make special things!

From Wednesday to Sunday there are hundreds of artists and craftspeople laying on workshops for you to choose from. Come and be part of the biggest hands-on craft field and sculpture park in Europe!

We promote traditional craft but also celebrate what’s cutting-edge and contemporary.

Greencrafts is not tame – it’s a field full of hot metal, kilns and ovens with blacksmiths, potters and bakers sharing the elemental force of fire to transform materials.

The sculpture, gardens & labyrinths are among the best you’ll see at any festival making The Greencrafts Field a gorgeous place to come sit & chill. 

The Greencrafts Field is next-door to the stone circle. To make it easy to find your way around, we’ve laid out the Greencrafts Field into groupings of similar workshops – you’ll find all the metal smiths in one area, the wood workers in another etc. Also at the entrance there’s a listing of what’s happening each day – or you can just wander and see what takes your fancy ! Some workshops you can just drop-by on and others you need to book to save a place; some charge for materials.

Everyone is welcome; including children supervised by accompanying adults. You don’t have to have experience, just visit the field and get involved ! You’ll take home something truly magical – something you’ve made and that’s part of this amazing festival.

We’ll look forward to seeing you there
