Glastonbury 2023: Co-op confirms details of pop-up store including opening times and location

Glastonbury Festival's on-site supermarket is returning this year with the Co-op's pop-up store. The festival shop, now in its third year, gives festival-goers the opportunity to save space in their backpacks and buy food, drink and other essentials on-site.

In less than a week's time, around 200,000 people will arrive at Worthy Farm for the world's largest greenfield music festival (June 21-25). Glastonbury Festival started its partnership with the Co-op in 2019 offering an all-day and late-night service called '31 Toad Lane', which is restocked daily.

A spokesperson for the retailer said: "Co-op will be returning to Worthy Farm with its pop-up store for the third year as it provides food and festival essentials for Glastonbury 2023. Festival-goers will be able to source all their weekend essentials from the Co-op’s custom-built barn supermarket, a fully operational 6,000-sq ft food store, stocking more than 250 traditional supermarket food, drink and other products such as sun cream and medicines."
