Ever wondered what it was like at the first #Glastonbury? Here's a little insight into the 'Pilton Pop, Folk and Blues Festival' on Saturday 19 September, 1970. Headliners The Kinks pulled out and were replaced by Tyrannosaurus Rex, known later as T-Rex. Around 1,500 people were said to have turned up. That's compared to more than 200,000 expected in 2025. | BBC Bristol

#Glastonbury2025 kicks off today! But first, let's rewind to 1970 when Michael Eavis, a Somerset dairy farmer with a penchant for folk, rhythm and blues, and pop music, decided to host a music festival - the Pilton Pop, Blues & Folk Festival - at Worthy Farm. The farmer spoke to BBC Bristol about some of the challenges he'd faced in getting to this point, and his hopes and fears for the festival. | BBC Archive
