WHY ARE AVON AND SOMERSET POLICE AT GLASTONBURY?
More than 200,000 people attend each day of the festival and although it is relatively crime-free, we work with the organisers to ensure it’s a safe event for everyone.

A policing presence is also essential to the granting of the licence needed to hold the festival https://perma.cc/3MFK-6ZN2

More details in a future post:
This analysis of the GTD, which identified 146 terrorist attacks against concerts or festivals over a 50-year period, shows the variety in perpetrators and targets. Pilgrims attending religious festivals (soft targets) and security forces (state-related targets) were the primary targets of the GTD-registered incidents.

Mass gatherings are vulnerable soft targets for terrorist attacks. Concerts and festivals cause an influx of people at a specific time into a specific space, resulting in three target groups: attendees and emergency first responders, being soft targets, and governmental/security personnel.
