This weekend, Glastonbury and Street are gearing up for a whirlwind of activities that promise to entertain, enlighten, and engage residents and visitors alike.
With a packed schedule of music, spiritual events, and unique community gatherings, there's something for everyone looking to add a bit of zest to their weekend plans.
Kicking things off with a musical treat, the Glastonbury Assembly Rooms will play host to a special concert by RJ Stewart on Saturday, 9th March. Known for his blend of radical, satirical, and magical songs, ancient pagan ballads, and instrumental music played on guitar, psaltery, and flute, Stewart is a Scottish musician and author with a global following.
His work spans many recordings and books, and his contributions to theatre, radio, and television drama have been acclaimed internationally. Those attending can expect a memorable night of music and storytelling, with tickets available at a sliding scale from £10 to £7, cash only, ensuring everyone can enjoy the magic on offer.
But the musical offerings don't end there. The Undercover Hippy is set to bring his mix of reggae, folk, and hip-hop to The King Arthur on Sunday evening, promising thought-provoking lyrics and a vibrant performance. Meanwhile, The Sweetchunks Band will offer up their comedic folk stylings at the same venue on Saturday, guaranteeing a dose of laughter alongside lively tunes. And for those looking for a bit more edge, The Back River Rats will take the stage at The Riflemans Arms on Saturday night.
Away from the music scene, the weekend also caters to those seeking spiritual nourishment and personal growth. The Awaken the Goddess Glastonbury Event on Saturday at the Red Brick Building is an invitation for empowerment and spiritual awakening, designed especially for women. On Sunday, the Family Constellations workshop at the Glastonbury Experience offers a deep dive into family dynamics and personal healing.
For a serene start to the weekend, the Friday Gong Bath and Sound Journey at the Avalon Room promises a peaceful escape through sound.
Not forgetting the special interest events, the Psychic & Gift Fair at the Town Hall on Saturday is the perfect place to explore psychic readings, holistic therapies, and pick up some unique gifts, or you can check out Salt House, a renowned folk band known for their engaging blend of new songs with an ageless feel at the Studio in Strode Theatre, Street on Saturday, 9 March at 7:45 PM. With a presence in the folk scene for nearly a decade, their repertoire spans themes from place and politics to landscape and birds. Tickets are priced at £15.
With so much on offer, Glastonbury and Street are certainly the places to be this weekend. Whether you're drawn to the allure of live music, the promise of spiritual awakening, or the simple pleasure of community connection, you'll find plenty to keep you entertained.
