Glastonbury Festival announces two new stages at The Park for 2024

Glastonbury has shared details of two new venues at The Park for 2024, The Wishing Well and Scissors.

The two new stages will replace The Rabbit Hole, and are described as being designed to “rob every inhibition” and fill both “your mind - and every synapse with bacchian wonder."

The Rabbit Hole will be retired from Worthy Farm this year, having been a fixture of The Park for 17 years.

The Wishing Well is described by the festival as a “place in which to ignite your deepest desires and unfurl your wildest wishes,” and to “Re-awaken all that inspires you, because at The Wishing Well – where dreams are made – hope springs eternal!”

Scissors, dubbed as a “queer wonderland’, is described as “an utterly delicious femme-queer venue where anything can (and does!) happen."

The venue is set to host a range of activities, where you can get “a cut”, enjoy some daily talks including a Q&A session from Sophie Ellis-Bextor, play some pool in the bar, or watch a movie inside “Flick Shack”.
