Worthy FM is the onsite radio station of The Glastonbury Festival. It broadcasts on 87.7 MHz FM and online for one week only during the Festival, operating under a Restricted Service Licence (RSL). The station features interviews, music and performance from across the festival site, as well as important information on traffic congestion, camping availability and overcrowding. It is intended for those at or on the approach to the festival.
The station is run by a team of 30 volunteers, many of whom have been working on the station for a number of years. In addition, the station reserves a small number of crew places each year for new volunteers, who are chosen through a national competition judged by festival organiser Emily Eavis.

Famous quotes containing the word worthy:
“... we, like so many others who think more of working than of dying, care only to push on steadily, wishing less for cessation of toil than for strength to keep at it; and for wisdom to make it worthy of the ideal of labor and of life which we believe to be the most precious gift of Heaven to any soul.”
—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
