DEFENDER AND GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL REUNITE FOR AN EPIC SUMMER 2025 ADVENTURE

27 June 2025

  • Enduring partnership: For the third consecutive year, Defender reprises its role as Official Vehicle Partner of Glastonbury Festival, with cars chauffeuring artists, guests and staff at the legendary music event 

  • The original British adventure brand: Whether it’s exploring the wilderness or the pulse of live music, Defender embodies the spirit of adventure

  • Historic association: Defender has been at the heart of Glastonbury for over five decades, with Land Rovers used by the festival site owners and organisers since the very first event in 1970

As Glastonbury’s Official Vehicle Partner for the third year running, we’re proud to continue to support such an iconic British festival that celebrates adventure, exceptional experiences and the spirit of music – values which are at the heart of the Defender community. A fleet of capable, electrified Defenders, built for any challenge, provide reliable, all‑terrain mobility to help keep the festival running smoothly, no matter the conditions.
