With 180,000 people turning out on a sprawling English farm to see countless musical and theatre acts on 50 stages, last week's Glastonbury Festival is the U.K.'s biggest music festival of the year.
The Rolling Stones played for the first time in the festival's 43-year history, while bands like Mumford and Sons, The Arctic Monkeys and Public Enemy also headlined.
But the main attraction wasn't necessarily the musical acts paid to perform — it was the festively dressed people who braved rain, heat, mud, camping and even flying tomatoes to see them.
The festival, which started in 1970 when several hundred hippies paid 1 GBP to watch Marc Bolan, was founded by this man: Michael Eavis.

Most people camp throughout the entire five-day festival.
