The Glastonbury
Symposium
‘Expand Your Horizons’
Event
26-27 July 2024
Glastonbury Town Hall
Walk through the doors of Glastonbury Town
Hall between 26-28 July this summer and you
will find yourself in another world. With
colourful banners hanging from the ornate
walls and atmospheric lighting creating a
cocoon of otherness, you will have entered the
Glastonbury Symposium, the annual three-day
‘Expand Your Horizons’ event, which has been
attracting international attendees and high
quality speakers for a remarkable 34 years.
The Symposium began as an opportunity to
discuss the evidence for the newly elaborate
crop circles that were flowering in 1990 (and
still are) and has become so well established
that when comedian Mark Steel broadcast his
radio show Mark Steel’s In Town here, it was
specifically referenced as “the corn circle
conference” …
However, the themes of the Glastonbury
Symposium long ago extended far beyond its
origins to encompass many other mysteries,
cover-ups and new thinking about numerous
crucial areas of life, spiritual, geopolitical and
scientific. Never ones to shy away from
controversy (within reasonable boundaries),
debates on free expression and a resistance to
the current wave of suffocating censorship
have become another central core that its
organisers are keen to preserve. Run by a
dedicated team and fronted by Andy Thomas,
mysteries researcher and author of many
books including The New Heretics, everyone
involved shares the aim of providing a richly
satisfying weekend of food for thought, food
for the soul and actual (good) food, served in
the Town Hall café. And the schedule always
(barring calamities) runs to time …
Browsing through this year’s subjects alone
gives a clear indication of the Symposium’s
wide-ranging remit as it investigates latest
official revelations on UFOs, new discoveries
on ancient mysteries, global control agendas,
quantum spirituality, the Holy Grail, the
freeing power of music, Chartres Cathedral,
cryptocurrency,
atomic
geometry,
relationships, AI, ETs, astrology and herbalism,
wider views on current events ... and, yes, still
crop circles, including exclusive premiere
excerpts of a brand new circle documentary
from an award-winning director.
Among the many excellent presenters, specific
highlights include Australian Holy Grail seeker
and lover of Glastonbury Tanishka: The Moon
Woman, renowned ancient sites expert
Andrew Collins, truthseeker and 180 Degrees
author Feargus O’Connor Greenwood, UFO
disclosure expert Alan Foster, Glastonbury’s
own freedom campaigner Sandi Adams, and
classical musician and champion of free
expression Piers Adams (no relation), the
world’s most renowned recorder player.

Glastonbury Symposium for yourself. If you

around the globe. Weekend or day tickets can
