Tom, Chief Flight Instructor at the newly-opened Sky Riders Paragliding and Paramotor School, said: "I was flying at around 1000 ft and you could clearly see activity across the whole of the Glastonbury site. Some of the permanent features were looking bare and slowly getting their coverages / facades to bring the Glastonbury magic."
Sky Riders has a workshop and classroom on the Bath and West Showground, but operates across the whole of the south west, including the stunning Jurassic Coast.
Glastonbury Festival 2024 will take place from June 26 to June 30, with headline performances from Dua Lipa, Coldplay, SZA and Shania Twain. Following resales in April, all tickets are now sold out.
