Classic Clapton played the gig of our lives at the legendary festival. Thousands of eager fans crammed into the giant marquee known as The Acoustic Stage. They witnessed a breath-taking 50 minute set. The place was jumping!

AFTER 17 YEARS ON THE ROAD, THIS WAS DEFINITELY OUR BEST GIG YET!

Thank you to all the fans who gave us such a great reception and to all the lovely people who came up afterwards and said it was the high-light of the festival for them. Especially a BIG THANK YOU to Michael Eavis for inviting us to perform at his brilliant festival. Please invite us back one day.
