Calling all music lovers in Shepton Mallet!

Collett Park will be transformed into a mini-Glastonbury festival experience, complete with a free big-screen showing of the festival's final day on June 30th.

Missed out on tickets this year, or not a fan of the crowds? No worries! This family-friendly event is the perfect way to soak up the Glastonbury vibes without leaving town.

Head to Collett Park from 11am onwards and settle in for a day filled with music, courtesy of the BBC's coverage. Enjoy the performances in a relaxed and comfortable setting, including the festival's headline act.

Feeling peckish? Fear not! Food and drinks will be available for purchase throughout the day.

Grab a bite from the hot food stands or quench your thirst at the bar opening in the afternoon. Pack your blankets, picnics, and good company for a fun-filled afternoon celebrating music and community spirit.

Sing along, dance if you feel like it, and simply enjoy the atmosphere! This event is all about capturing the essence of Glastonbury without the hustle and bustle of the actual festival.

For everyone's safety, a few simple rules will be in place. Security will be searching bags, so please leave any glass bottles at home. Be respectful of your fellow attendees, keep your furry friends on a leash, and save the barbecues for another occasion.
