Metallica's guitarist James Hetfield also namechecked it when he was interviewed about his time at the festival on the BBC.READ MORE: Glastonbury 2024 secret set rumours as surprise performance confirmed

It is constructed from a large hole in the ground, topped with a wooden frame and covered in turf. A feature of the festival since 1994, the bar is created in a secret location by a group of Irish workers who travel over to Somerset 12 weeks before the event to build it every year. It is taken down again after the festival.
