WaterBear Artists Join The Glastonbury Line Up
WaterBear artists have taken to the legendary Glastonbury Festival stage two years in a row, performing to packed crowds and soaking up the magic of one of the world’s most iconic music events.

This is just one example of the many exciting opportunities we offer at WaterBear.
