Glastonbury Festival 2024 Drop Theatre & Circus And Kidzfield Lineups

by | May 6, 2024

As we count down the days until the gates at Somerset’s Worthy Farm swing open for another magical Glastonbury Festival, the area lineups are dropping thick and fast! And this weekend, we’ve had a double dose as both the child-focussed Kidzfield and wider Theatre & Circus area have announced who will be in attendance for the 2024 edition. If you have children and wondered what it’s like to experience the festival with them en-tow, do check out our very own Rockshot Magazine experiences through the years: 2017, 2019, 2022 & 2023.

The Kidzfield is only open and accessible to children and those responsible for them, so it provides an exclusive, fun-filled escape for families from the rest of the raucous festival. The Kidzfield Big Top is the site’s “main stage” and will this year bring back Andy & The Odd Socks and Doc Brown in addition to resident star Basil Brush.

But the Kidzfield is so much more than the Big Top, with loads of activities for kids of all ages. The Experimakers is fabulous for those of a scientific persuasion while arts and crafts of all sorts as well as musical instrument workshops will keep young creative minds busy.

There are fabulous hand-cranked rides and the Kidzfield’s own Helter Skelter! The magical pink castle is always a fun attraction that little ones simply can’t resist. At the rear there is Little Kidz Area for tinier tots.

An alternative to the music stages, the Theatre & Circus area simply cannot be described and simply must be experienced. But you’ll find indoor and outdoor experiences going on throughout the weekend. There will be death-defying high-rise artists, comedy stars and a roaming menagerie of weird and wonderful acts. This simply must be seen and experienced as part of any Glastonbury Experience.

You’ll also find the Glastonbury Press in this area, with two free editions coming out over the weekend as well as posters by famed artist Stanley Donwood printed at the site on sale.

Taking Children To Glastonbury Festival – Looking Back At 2023

HAAL (Jess Agnew)

HAAL Return With New Single ‘Plate 43 (…Or Standing on the Toes of Giants)’

Borderless four-piece HAAL have returned with a new single titled Plate 43 (…Or Standing on the Toes of Giants). The single comes on the heels of an incendiary year for the band which saw them release their Thurston Moore-approved EP Back To Shilmarine to widespread plaudits, leading to remixes by JUICE (Ollie Judge of Squid) and Water From Your Eyes, as well as UK tour dates and festival appearances such as ArcTanGent, Outer Town, Wanderlust, and more.

Tide Lines (Nathan Dunphy)

Tide Lines Drop New LP ‘Glasgow Love Story’

Tide Lines’ ascent continues today, with the release of their highly anticipated fourth album Glasgow Love Story via their own Tide Lines Music label. The album includes the recent single Better Days, Homeward Bound., double A-side single By The Quayside / Leaving Town , and Cherry Blossom Sunset.

Jon Allen Shares New Single ‘Midnight Oil’

Jon Allen’s new album project Seven Dials is rich with evocative narrative postcards of what life might have been like for the typical 18th century Londoner. And as his singles Down With The Tide, White Gold, The Shadow and Nine Lives have shown, while the events and circumstances back then were often very different, people’s intrinsic behaviour and motivations are almost unchanged. That’s something which is especially true of his new single Midnight Oil.

Andrew Spice Pays Tribute To The Unconditional Love Of Pets With Single ‘Gentle Sentinel’

As any pet owner knows, the relationship between people and our pawed friends changes dramatically over time and the love between a pet and its owner is a unique one – and often responsible for saving one in challenging times. This is something that Andrew Spice shared with his late, beloved cat Bea, who he pays tribute to with his new single Gentle Sentinel.
