Glastonbury Applications!

Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2025

Well, what a couple of weeks it’s been! With the DCSS Glastonbury applications opening on Monday 3rd and then the official line up poster being released on Thursday 6th, the anticipation is ramping up for whether you’ll be there or not.

We received almost 500 applications for our Glastonbury positions in the last two weeks. We have just under 150 positions available and as such there’s going to be lots of you that we can’t fit in. Because of this we have now closed Glastonbury applications for 2025. As much as we’d love to have all of you there with us, it’s just not possible!

Our process will be to accept our regular and newer crew which have worked at least one show with us prior to Glastonbury, then we will try to accept those that are planning to do lots of events with us either before or after Glastonbury, then finally those who just want to go to Glastonbury.

We will begin to accept applications from Monday 17th March, this might take a few days but we will let you know when all positions are full. Those that have got an application in will automatically be placed on a waiting list for any positions which do become available.

Please consider that if you are accepted for one of the few positions we have, it’s highly unlikely you’ll be able to switch shifts from nights to days and vice versa.

Happy Festival Season!

I wanted to write personally to say a huge thank you to you and your brilliant team for all your hard work to enable to deliver, in such a short space of time, a wonderful Royal Windsor Horse Show.

When we started the planning, we honestly had no idea whether we could or could not run and had so many changes it must have made it almost impossible for your team – however as always they adapted and overcame the many hurdles that we presented, with a smile and a complete can do attitude and many people are saying that it was one of the best show’s that they have ever been to.

Everybody I have spoken to has said how fantastic the cleaning was and that the loos were immaculate, and the showground looked as good on the last day as it did on the first day – which is exactly what any organiser strives to achieve. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everything was delivered with a smile. Your cleaners were tremendous once again. Even with the date change and the added bonus (!) of COVID everything was delivered on time.
