Glastonbury Festival Of Contemporary Performing Arts - History - 1996

There was no festival. After the phenomenal success of the previous event to give the farm a rest, the cows the chance to stay out all summer long, and allow all the people involved the chance to take a break from the demands of  organising such a large event.  However, 1996 also saw the introduction  of the Classical Extravaganza  which took place at  Glastonbury  Abbey in the August.
