If there is one festival that everybody has heard of, it is Glastonbury. But what makes it more unique is its location on Michael and Emily Eavis' dairy farm, who are probably one of the most well-known father/daughter farming duos of all time.
Music royalty has graced its stages, from the Rolling Stones to Beyonce, and it will go down in music history as the cream of the crop of festivals.
But here are some things you may not know, including where the cows go when thousands descend on Worthy Farm.
What do Michael and Emily farm?
Apparently there are around 400 cows at Worthy Farm in Somerset, and Michael has said in previous interviews that the dairy industry should be ‘proud of what we are doing.'
Where do the cows go?
It is said that the cows go and graze elsewhere, although the milkers stay close by to avoid e.coli.
In the beginning
Michael originally started the festival to make a bit of extra money, as farming at the time was not doing well.
Did you know?
For the first festival back in 1970, tickets were originally only £1 - according to the Bank of England, this equates to around £12.80 now. Festival goers were given free milk on entry to the farm.
Sustainable focus
In 2010, it became the largest privately owned solar power station in the UK at that particular time, as all cowsheds were covered with solar panels - enough to power 40 homes.
Last year it will be entirely run by renewable energy.
