Revellers arrive as Glastonbury Festival 2019 opens its gates

Music fans from across the world have started descending on Worthy Farm now that Glastonbury 2019 has officially opened.

Stormzy, Liam Gallagher and Christine and the Queens are among the major acts that will be taking to the stage over the weekend.

Festival founder Michael Eavis and his daughter Emily were on hand today (June 26) to greet early arrivals, many of whom were sagging under the weight of tents and baggage.

Visitors will no doubt get the party atmosphere under way this afternoon as excitement builds towards the start of the music on Friday.
