    To paraphrase those celebrated philosophers the Village People, we wanted to let you know we’re going west. Life is peaceful there, in the open air… where the sky is blue. This is what we’re going to do. Come join us over on @bluesky! greenbeltfestival.bsky.social

    Thank you Greenbelters for the love and respect you show our beautiful festival home here at Boughton. You’ve done it again. #LeaveNoTrace #TravelLight

    Thank you Greenbelters – as usual – for being the most conscientious and caring festival-goers. This is how you left our campsite field on Tuesday. Not a leftover tent, or bit of rubbish in sight. Every year you do us proud. #LeaveNoTrace #TravelLight

    Just to say – we read the House of Bishops’ statement & we wanted to say: At @greenbelt we remain resolutely inclusive. As our manifesto says: “we’re still somewhere that welcomes anyone & everyone” "We’re Greenbelt. We’re somewhere to believe in.” greenbelt.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

    We’re gutted to say that we're having to cancel Greenbelt Festival for a second year. We've worked to the wire to try and go ahead. But we can't go any further without insurance. We're heartbroken, but still hopeful. We're down. But we're not quite out. greenbelt.org.uk/gb21-update/

    You’ve outdone yourselves. A huge thanks for packing up your tents and cleaning up your campsite rubbish. Check out this photo of our campsite field from Wed, a little later than usual, but taken after the very last volunteer had packed up. Truly beautiful work! #LeaveNoTrace

    We might not all be in the same boat, but we are definitely all in the same storm. Here's why there won't be a 47th Greenbelt festival this summer. And no, we can't believe we've written that sentence either. greenbelt.org.uk/gb20-update

    This is Andrew. He's a seasoned Greenbelter and has created some of our most recent (and memorable) Sunday Communion Services. @AndrewGraystone We salute you. Top peacemaking.

    That's a wrap. From us, from our whole team, from all 8 days of festival, thank you for coming and we hope to see you next year for the full-fat festival we all love.

    We are literally the only festival in the world where, right now, you can choose between beer and hymns and a secret gig by a Russian feminist protest punk rock and performance art group. Stick that in your pipe Reading! #GBWildAtHome

    And that's a wrap. THANK YOU, from all of us here (and not here) to all of you - you are amazing! See you at the picnic tomorrow... Youtube: bit.ly/gb-picnic-yt Facebook: bit.ly/gb-picnic-fb

    Goodbye and thanks for an amazing festival. Thanks to all our artists, volunteers and crew. And in the absence of the annual staff photo we present the @greenbelt staff for 2019....live at the OK Chorale 💚 See you in 2020 - Wild at Heart

    The clocks are going forward soon, BFT (British Festival Time) is almost here and we can at last give you a glimpse of the first wave of names confirmed for this year’s festival – our 50th anniversary. 👀 greenbelt.org.uk/2023-lineup/ #GB50

    We’re delighted that our friends @MethodistGB have today voted to allow same-sex marriages in their churches. (They join another of our friends @UnitedReformed who did the same just a few years back.) Way to go. And just before #Pride month ends. #timesareachanging
