It was mentioned that the festival participants left 57 tons of stuff that could be reused, 1,022 tons of garbage can be recycled and 500 thousand sacks of trash that contains the others.

The festival comittee had already warned the festival participants on the garbage problem.

Those who brought tents to celebrate the six-days five-nights music, ware reminded to carry their tent home rather than leaving it in the location.

The poster written "Loved the environment, do not leave garbage" also sticked everywhere. 514 food outlets had already asked to use the tools that were environmentally friendly, and purchasers were suggested to dispose the trash in its place.

Still, the garbage is still scattered around.

The festival founder, Michael Eavis, decided to obviate Glastonbury in 2018. He mentions it as a 'fallow year,' in the purpose to make Worthy Farm 'breathe' back from the passionate party.

It is a 'break' that has always taken every six years. "This place needs a break, altogether with the village and life around it," said Eavis.

But, the festival will be back in the following year.

In 2020, Glastonbury will celebrate its 50 years. It is still the most awaited music festival.
