Not so 'Little' Glastonboro!

What a success our long awaited 2022 Little Glastonboro has been.

We simply can't thank every person enough who came, all 1,000 of you! You created an ambience which we could only have dreamt of. From start to finish the energy from the guests/performers/staff was absolutely top notch, this was carried on throughout the entirety of the day and we are incredibly grateful.

A special thank you to each performer:

Arctic Frost

Love Generation

Disney Duo

Between The Vines

Manchester SKA

Chasing Mumford

Boomin

ABBA Sensation

And thank you to everyone else who made the day what it was, including the food stalls, the marshals, The Cricket Club for providing us with a great location and fabulous volunteers and to the What's occurrin' Rochdale Team for all their incredible hard-work they put into creating such a brilliant event.

Despite the torrential rain causing a stampede to the nearest cover, the night still ended on a high thanks to the special ABBA sensation keeping the crowd going (mixed with a little liquid courage), it could not have been planned any better.

Little Glastonboro Token System

We can't wait to welcome you our events! We thought it best to give you a little more information about the token system that will be operating. If you've been to music or beer festivals before then you will have come across these systems before.

We are operating a TOKEN SYSTEM at all locations at the event.

Don’t be scared to embrace the festival experience!

Tokens speed up the service at bars and reduce the time spent queuing. Plus they are really easy to use!

Tokens can be purchased at the token station by the entrance or back of the hall.

1. Tokens can be purchased with cash or card but we do recommend cash to speed up the process.

2. Each token is worth £2

3. Everything at the event will use tokens!

4. Tokens will be available to purchase throughout the event.

5. Tokens can be reimbursed before you leave from the token booth.

All festivals do have queues at peak times however we know the token system will help to speed up service at the bars.

We look forward to seeing you!
