“Sometimes there’s an event that punches a hole in the expected norm,Glas-Denbury does this in spades”
Deep in the depths of the beautiful Devon countryside, a little piece of magic happens every July. Of course all who are familiar with Devon, know that magic runs through the heart of the county in so many ways as it is a county of festivals and events, beautiful towns and villages, stunning scenery from the moors to the sea and full of people who have a vision of how the world can be a kinder, happier, safer place.
Glas-Denbury brings all of beautiful Devon into one place, one beautiful green field backed by the majestic Dartmoor, under the shadow of Denbury Hilll and we are proud to say that that 2018 saw over a 90% line up of artists, entertainers, poets, workshops, food and drink, production, suppliers and more. We are also proud to work to a strict sustainability policy which we are striving to build on each year as well as ensuring a 50/50 policy across the festival.
The multi award winning Glas-Denbury is totally independant and has been built from the beginning without the aid of funding or sponsorship – built purely on lovem goodwill and a passion for creating something wonderful for the local and wider community to enjoy. It is directed by Emma and run by a team of amazing people; Mums, Dads, students, Grandparents, young people and even young children get involved! We may not be the biggest festival out there but we have the biggest hearts with which we create an incredibly family friendly, safe, happy, colourful inspirational place.
A nod to the family friendly festivals of yesteryear, Glas-Denbury showcases the best of the South West from its creativity to its food, its businesses to its people. So why not take a trip to our lovely part of the world, come and dance in the daisies, delight in the magic of Glas-Denbury, enjoy a weekend of colour, happiness, music & arts with your family and friends and make some new friends along the way!
As well as showcasing the best of the South West, we also love bringing in fabulous and quirky artists from all over the UK to entertain and surprise you! From the “Quiet Dream” team that run the festival, to the people on the stages, from the food served to the drink offered at the bars, we want you to be enthralled, mystified, inspired and enlightened and we want to create smiles and happiness in all who come to join us.
Come and let your hair down and enjoy all the fabulous entertainment and activities we have on site including free workshops, lots of activities and entertainers, performance poetry, crafts and so much more throughout the weekend. Whether you are a family with young children, a family with teenagers, or a group of adults who just want to leave the children at home and come and party, then there really is something for you all. We offer group discounts and complimentary carer tickets (subject to t&cs) so grab your family and friends and come and have fun!
Glastonbury may have been built on Ley lines, but Glas-Denbury is built on Love Lines!
