Glastonbury Festival is more than a music event—it’s a cultural phenomenon. Each year, more than 200,000 music fans travel to Somerset. They enjoy five days filled with top-notch performances, great vibes, and lasting memories. The music may be magical, but getting there is a hassle. Traffic, mud, and limited parking make it a logistical nightmare.
That’s where Knightliner Executive Travel comes in. Based in the UK, we specialize in luxury coach and minibus hire with a professional driver. Heading to Glastonbury with friends or a big group? We have comfy and reliable travel options for you.

Why Book a Coach or Minibus to Glastonbury?
Glastonbury takes place on a working farm in Pilton, Somerset. It’s a lovely yet remote spot. Trains and public buses are often crowded and costly. They can also leave you far from your drop-off point. When you book with Knightliner Executive Travel, you can avoid the chaos and enjoy:
-
Direct drop-off at festival-approved zones.
-
Comfortable seating for long journeys.
-
Onboard space for luggage, tents, and gear.
-
Avoidance of parking hassles and festival traffic.
-
Professional, punctual service that gets you there and back without stress.
