Glastonbury Festival had its very own "Stonehenge" summer solstice celebration this morning (June 21) as the sun rose on the longest day of the year. But, of course, with the Festival's famous devotion to quirkiness, it wasn't a conventional stone circle that the sun cast its strong summer rays upon.

Opening today, the first day of the 2023 edition of Glastonbury Festival, Carhenge, Glastonbury’s own "Stonehenge" is a monumental new installation by founder of the Mutoid Waste Company and revolutionary underground artist, Joe Rush. The new addition to the Worthy Farm landscape revisits an idea that originated at the 1987 festival.

When Joe Rush and the Mutoid Waste Company were stopped from visiting the free festival at Stonehenge, they came to Glastonbury and built their own from scrap cars, starting a three-day 24-hour party at their henge. Speaking of this years’ epic structure, Joe Rush said: "This is the version we always dreamed of building, the complete henge."

Erected in the centre of the Glastonbury Festival grounds using 24 vintage cars to emulate the world-famous stone structure in Wiltshire, Carhenge is tribute to the pillars of Counterculture and the free festival movement, the heroines and heroes from the margins of society, the non-conformists, punks, and visionaries whose courage and energy has shaped our culture from the underground out. From Quentin Crisp, pioneer of the trans community and author of "The Naked Civil Servant", and legendary rock’n’roll guitarist, Chuck Berry, to late fashion and environmental icon, Vivienne Westwood, and Hawkwind’s pioneering Sax player Nick Turner, who sadly passed away this year.

Carhenge will be set alive by a show of lights created by celebrated lighting designer Ed Warren and by the inventive Congolese beats of Fulu Miziki or "music from the garbage" in Lingala. These "African Mutoids" from Kinshasa, dressed in scrap, fusing music, art, dance and fashion will perform and play their afrofuturist sound with percussion instruments made of rubbish, from flip flops to plastic tubing.

Summer Solstice in Stonehenge
The summer solstice is the most important day of the year in the Celtic calendar. Where can you experience this event more impressively than at Stonehenge? It is not only an astronomical event but a meeting with like-minded people. Stonehenge is also freely accessible during this time (unlike the rest of the year).

But the big draw is the Summer Solstice Experience at Stonehenge, a festival that brings together pagan groups like Druids and Wiccans with families and tourists. Everyone is united by the desire to have fun and experience something unique at this very large party. Summer Solstice at Stonehenge is celebrated and commemorated here in a very special way with various activities.

When the sun touches the stones
Every year on the summer solstice, thousands of people gather in Wiltshire, England to watch the sun rise over the mystical stones on the summer solstice. It is the unique, near-perfect view of the rising sun on the summer solstice as it glides over the ancient, mystical rocks that captivate local people.

For centuries, visitors have wondered: did the builders of Stonehenge intentionally make it a solstice site?

Well, there are a dozen theories about Stonehenge on the questions of who built the monument and why it was built. They range from an alien invasion to the legend of King Arthur. In terms of facts, we know (only) the following about Stonehenge and its connection to the summer solstice.

More than upright rocks
According to the Center for Archaeology and Anthropology at Bournemouth University, a spiritual burial site formed the basis for Stonehenge. Around 2600 BC, the actual construction process of the rock monument began. The builders focused on astronomical events and erected the rocks so that on the summer solstice the sun would rise over the heel stone, a single block, and shine on the centre of the circle. At the winter solstice around December 21, you can experience a similar effect at sunset.

Even today, this structure is able to unite people and make them marvel and celebrate. Summer Solstice at Stonehenge offers a unique sense of spirituality, whether you are admiring the sunrise with like-minded people or performing Summer Solstice Yoga. It's the longest day of the year, which gets a worthy setting at Stonehenge.

In fact, it is believed that the presentation of the summer and winter solstices was not the only reason Stonehenge was built. In the 1700s, the theory was spread that Stonehenge was a temple of the Druids and was built by them. Celtic spiritual traditions were practised here. And even today the monument allows deep insights into the life of the builders and prehistoric times in general.

I’ve written a lot about visiting Stonehenge on this blog – it’s one of the top attractions in Britain and one of my personal faves so I kinda have to! But if you’re planning to visit Stonehenge at Summer Solstice then some of the information you need is going to be a lot different.

In this post we’re going to be looking at specifically visiting for the Summer Solstice event at Stonehenge, how to get there, costs and any rules for this time. I’ve found it quite hard to get a good overview in one place so I hope this post will help you!

It’s long been a goal of mine to visit Stonehenge at the solstice – not this year due to work but I’m hoping now I’ve gathered all the information I’ll be on the case for next year and I can add in some first hand experience!

The events ahead of solstice day in 1985 are still hotly disputed - but those trying to reach the ancient monument said police officers in full riot gear rushed on to the field "attacking absolutely everything in sight".

The new age travellers, many of them accompanied by their children and pets, said they were left stumbling around in a bewildering convoy of battered vehicles, attempting to escape.

Hours earlier they were making their way to the spiritual landscape of Stonehenge. It was an annual pilgrimage that hundreds of travellers had completed every year since the early 1970s.

But by the mid-80s, the authorities had a High Court injunction preventing the traditional gathering and, as police admit, were determined to uphold it.

What unfolded, according to local journalist James Cameron, was "like something out of the Wild West" and it would set the template of confrontation for years to come.
