The Swansea based tiny performing cinema will join the line up in the Theatre & Circus fields.
Since 2010, the diminutive mobile picture house has entertained more than 100,000 people at music and film festivals and community events.
Co-founder and Sol Cinema projectionist Paul O’Connor stated; “Glastonbury begins on the Summer Solstice this year, which is fitting since our entire cinema is powered by the Sun. During the week before we leave for the festival, Sol Cinema will be storing Welsh sunshine in our solar batteries and releasing it at Glastonbury. Everything from our LED video projector, lights, sound system and digital equipment is all solar powered.”

Sol Cinema say they’re excited about introducing their new usherettes at Glastonbury. It is a family affair as even the co-founders children work in the Sol Cinema. All teenagers now, they have grown up working as usherettes or projectionists in the World’s smallest cinema.
Sol Cinema has a library of new short videos to present to audiences. In the last 13 years the Swansea based crew have taken Sol Cinema into fields, factories, schools, city centres, on a farm and even in a Zoo. Being mobile, they can squeeze into the smallest spots and entertain with short films and their stylishly attired street performers.
Sol Cinema will be showing short Independent films every day during Glastonbury Festival.
The tiny cinema say they’re currently taking bookings and would love to hear from Welsh events.
