Glastonbury Festival has started off with hours of queuing as festival-goers face tightened security measures in the wake of three terrorist attacks in the past month in the UK.
Organisers advised ticket-holders to “pack light” for this year’s event in light of extra searches before people were let onto the site.
Punters were forced to join queues half a mile long within an hour of the gates opening at 7am on Wednesday – an hour earlier than planned – with reports from seasoned attendees saying they had “never seen” queues like it.
I’ve been coming to Glastonbury since 2004 and never seen this before. We’re half a mile from the gate still. Must be some serious searches. pic.twitter.com/SPlfcgk3rI
