The skies parted and the sun finally shone on the muddy fields of
Glastonbury, as festival goers paraded in an array of eye-catching outfits.
Festival goers got to enjoy an array of activities including a circus including jugglers, comedy acts and fire walkers.
Leonard Puggs from Dorset was impressed with the size of the venue.
"I wasn't expecting it to be this big. I always thought it was a couple of fields sort of thing but it's real good," he said.
While David Marsh, flanked by his two kids, said the festival is just as great for adults and little ones.
"I wouldn't be the same without them to be honest. It's great with the kids here. It's much better with the kids. It's great stuff and I love, prefer it away from the big stages and come around these places and it's great, really good," he said of the range of events.
Even the tea ladies who've been coming to the festival since 1979 showed excitement at the numerous changes over the years.
"It's changed, it's bigger every year, better in many ways, it's a one off isn't it Glastonbury?" said tea Lady Mildred Biggins from Cornwall.
The UK festival made its debut in 1970 and has grown over the years to become the largest green field music and performing arts festival in the world and is fondly considered the pinnacle of Britain's music festival calendar.
Other acts playing over the weekend include Primal Scream, Rufus Wainwright, Bobby Womack and Public Enemy
