Reflect on Greenbelt’s 40 years

Next year Greenbelt will be 40 years old and our theme for that festival will be Life Begins. We’re going to be reflecting on these forty years with two initiatives…

Onsite Reflection Groups 

Over the years we have grown as an event and a community and seen changes in our theological value base and in our responses through creative expression and social action. That’s why we would like your reflections on our journey so far in order that we can keep growing together over the next 40 years.  

So, at the festival this year we are holding some breakfast-time reflection groups to capture your perspective.  If you are interested in taking part in these, then please register your interest here »

Feedback stations around the site

In addition, over the festival weekend, stations will be set up around the site to collect:

  • Your reflections – about where we have come from and where we are going
  • Your ideas – your aspirations for the future of the festival

Whether you are new to the festival or a seasoned Greenbelter, we want to know what you think.
 
The stations will be sited at places like the Info Booth, the Box Office, G-Source, the Angel Bus and Lounge, and we will provide cards for you to write your ideas on.

    I am in the amazing situation of having a birthday now and then around the time of Greenbelt. I can remember my 27th birthday falling on the Sunday of Greenbelt that year(1991). This was my tenth Greenbelt and helping my mates band The Hedges perform in the New Music Tent I was with a group who were interviewed by Steve Taylor. Great days, by the way my 48th birthday is this Friday but I can’t make it, but, my 50th will be the Sunday in tWo years time, any chance of booking Steve Taylor, U2, Milton Jones, After The Fire or Bill Mason Band, all would be great but any one of the above will do!!! Thanks Paul. ps gives you two years to sort it out lol!

    Paul – I’ll come to your 50th birthday! Such a shame Steve Taylor’s there this year but not singing… How about adding the Rez Band, Fat and Frantic, the Pewshakers…..
