A fresh application to hold Glastonbury Festival next year has been submitted after a previous bid was rejected, a council confirmed today. Earlier this month the regulatory board of Mendip District Council refused a public entertainment licence for next year’s music event. A spokesman for the council today confirmed that a new application had been received from the festival organisers. He said the application would now be sent out for consultation to organisations such as the police, before a fresh meeting of the board probably in early February.
