Emily Eavis has written an essay for The Guardian explaining how voters can still have their say from the festival on 23 June

The upcoming EU referendum represents a huge decision for UK voters. The vote is being held on 23 June and coincides with the first day of this year’s Glastonbury Festival presenting a potential dilemma which could see many voices go unheard.

Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis has now penned an article for The Guardian explaining to attendees how they can register to vote and urging them to do so.

“Registering to vote and then registering for your postal or proxy vote isn’t complicated or time-consuming.” She says, “This is a decision that really will affect the lives of everyone in the UK. It would, frankly, be a bit daft not to have your say.”
