Watch: Irish Glastonbury attendee shares glimpse inside glamping pod

Extra.ie​6 hours ago

Anyone who has ever went to a festival will know there's a vast difference between glamping and camping.
While we're all glued to Glastonbury clips, many will be wondering what the glamping experience is like at the five-day festival.
Irish Glasto attendee Jessica Barry is among 200,000 festival-goers who have flocked to Worthing Farm in Somerset and has been sharing snippets from the famed event.
Opting for the more comfortable glamping option, Jessica gave social media users a peak inside her glamping pod at Ziggu Camp, which features actual beds, extension leads and access to hot showers.

Pic:Showing a behind-the-scenes into the glamping experience, Jessica brought followers inside the pod which features three single beds, a mirror and a lamp. The teepee is very aesthetically-pleasing with fairy-lights hanging up and a mat at the entrance.
On the beds, there is a towel, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash as well as an eye-mask and a toothbrush.
Showing a closer look at the bed, Jessica explained: 'That's a stand up bed. There's a mattress there. That is a mattress. One, two, three pillows. @jessica__nala We're living upper class this week lads 😂 @Ziggucamp #glastonbury #glastonbury2025 #ziggucamp ♬ original sound – jessica__nala
'I actually thought we wouldn't have enough pillows.'
The glamping pod is also big enough for the girls to stand in the tent, with Jessica exclaiming that they are 'living like the upper class.'
Another video shared by Jessica, prior to the Glamping Pod tour, saw the girls getting driven in a buggy to their tent. @jessica__nala Replying to @Georgie Bartlett these are the showers 🚿 #glastonbury #glastonburyfestival #glasto2025 #ziggucamp @Ziggucamp ♬ original sound – jessica__nala
Jessica also gave a glimpse inside the toilet and shower set-up, with the showers having individual stalls that look to have doors.
Naturally, the question on everyone's lips was just how much Jessica and her pals paid to live in luxury at the festival, with Jessica admitting 'it is expensive.'
'It was £1,950, (€2,280) so it is expensive. Between the three of us, I think that's like £650 (€760) each,' Jessica shared, 'Again, not cheap, however I did pay for it on my credit card and then we just chipped away at it each month.
'Now you are gonna pay a little bit of interest on it but it's really not that much in the grand scheme of things.'

Charli then linked to a five-star review of her set by the Guardian in which she was dubbed the unofficial headliner of the entire weekend.

Gary Lineker slams BBC for ‘losing their way' and ‘tying themselves up in knots' in first interview after MOTD axe

GARY Lineker says the BBC has 'lost their way' when it comes to impartiality in his first interview since he left Match Of The Day following an anti-semitism row. And in a talk at Glastonbury festival, he revealed that the Corporation had announced his exit before even making him aware of their decision. Gary, 64, said: 'The impartiality issue has become a massive problem that I think they've probably created themselves by the rules that have been set within the business. 'I understand in your news and current affairs they have to be generally impartial but, I mean, it is hot today right? I think we can all say that we don't need someone to come in to tell us it's actually not hot. 'We just need to know the truth. Read More on TV 'I think they've lost their way a little bit with that and there's a degree of impartiality at the very top of the BBC. 'There are thousands of amazing people at the BBC but it's not reflected at the top. 'They've tried themselves up in knots with it.' Gary had intended to leave the flagship show after this summer's World Cup but instead hosted his last Match of the Day on June 26. Most read in Football Admitting his upset at his ill-judged post, which Gary says 'gave people ammunition to shoot me,' he added: 'I had a little group chat back then, particularly with Ian Wright and Alan Shearer. 'I said, I've got a feeling they're going to take me off air on Saturday and Ian Wright immediately said 'if they do that I'm going to go'. Gary Lineker apologises for antisemitic post and confirms he's quitting BBC next week 'So the next day they announced I wasn't doing the show. 'They actually announced it without telling me first. 'I just thought what's the point of having a big platform if you don't use it to kind of push beliefs that you believe to be right.' But he later shared: 'I love the BBC. I always will and I'm not bitter or twisted about anything that happened.' 1 Gary Lineker, pictured with Zara Sultana, says the BBC has 'lost their way' when it comes to impartiality
