English, 3rd. ESO: reading comprehension (march 2014)

Since the end of the 1960’s, pop music festivals have become very popular all over the world. One of the largest in England is at Glastonbury in June. It has become very famous and attracts the best British bands.


This is what Carol says about the festival: ‘I’ve been to Glastonbury for the last four years and I love it! The music’s brilliant and the atmosphere is really good’.

The Glastonbury festival usually lasts three days, from Friday to Sunday, and you can buy your ticket at record shops or on the Internet. Many people buy a three-day ticket and stay in tents at the festival campsite.

One problem at the campsite is keeping clean. Another teenager at the festival, James, has told us why: ‘There are thousands of people here and I haven’t had a shower since I arrived two days ago. It’s impossible. You just have to accept that you’re going to be dirty’.
