Glastonbury could come to an end in 2020. Worthy Farm owner and Glastonbury founder, Michael Eavis, has been quoted today as saying "I think I can run on another six years, which would take me up to 50 years, then I'll see what happens after that."

The news han't been welcomed with open arms, as you would expect. 170,000+ travel to Worthy Farm each year and for it to come to an end would be a total disaster. However, Eavis stated that the festival has "still got a few years in it". Michael Eavis, your average dairy farmer back then, founded Glastonbury Festival 44 years ago and if it were to come to an end in 2020, it would be his 50th year in charge. We can all understand the reasons for him contemplating this decision, but a huge shame it would be to lose the greatest festival on the planet. 

But surely Emily will keep it going, won't she? We certainly hope so.
