Organizers who responded in a statement shared by the festival boss Emily EAVİS on social media, said that they were “horrified by the comments.
The Glastonbury Festival was created in 1970 as a place where people come together as a place they love the best of music, art and human efforts. As a festival, we stand against all war and terrorism.
“Glastonbury will be artists and speakers who appear in our stages that we inevitably share their views with approximately 4,000 performances in 2025, and the presence of an artist should never be seen as a implicit approval of his views and beliefs.
“However, yesterday, we were horrified by the statements made from Bob Vylan’s Western Holts scene. The conditions have passed a line and we remind everyone who participated in the construction of the festival is not a place to encourage anti -Semitism, hate speech or violence.”
A similar expression was published by the BBC because it confirmed that the set could not be traced on demand.
“Some comments made during Bob Vylan’s set were deeply aggressive,” he said. “During this live flow on IPlayer, which reflects what happened on the stage, a warning was given on the screen on the screen. We do not have a plan to present performance on demand.”
The police also evaluate the images of their sets to see if any crime has committed. Independent Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy’nin BBC General Manager Tim Davie’le “Bob Vylan before the performance of what should be an urgent explanation,” he says.
Bob Vylan took the stage shortly after Knecap, who handed over one of the most anticipated sets of the weekend. Festival, the group Liam O Hannaidh opened a Hezbollah flag and last year at a concert in the O2 Forum in the town of O2 “Up Hamas, Up Hezbollah” after claiming that the group’s Liam Liam O Hannaidh was accused of the pressure to cancel the performance after being accused of a terrorist crime.
