Microsoft Flight Simulator adds Glastonbarry music festival to game

The festival, with a maximum capacity of 7,000, began as a “silly idea” between two friends, and has been held in Romilly Park in the Vale of Glamorgan town since 2013.

Glastonbarry’s line-up of tribute acts has paid homage to artists as varied as Abba, AC/DC, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, Arctic Monkeys, Bon Jovi, and Eminem.

“It’s good fun. We don’t take ourselves too seriously,” said Blumberg.

“It is all tribute acts – some people turn their nose up at that, but it is what it says on the tin. It’s a bit of a laugh, people dress up, they come and sing along to their favourite songs and it’s a lovely atmosphere.”

Glastonbarry 2025 will see a Tom Jones tribute headline on Saturday, with Queen topping the bill on Sunday.

“Something for everyone, really,” said Blumberg.

“Some of them have been coming since the very first festival. A lot of the acts we use have come back year after year. They’re just great.”
