‘Not Done Yet’: The new book capturing the magic of Glastonbury’s late nights

Glastonbury might be taking a fallow year in 2026, but regular Worthy Farm goers can look back on the festival’s magical small hours through new book Not Done Yet – Glastonbury After the Music.

The book is the work of photographer Mischa Haller, who previously captured 1990s night life through Not Going Home, which offered a unique insight into how clubbers were feeling – and looking – when the sun finally came up.

Now, Haller has turned his lens on the unique experience of bleary-eyed revellers who are enjoying Glastonbury between the hours of 4 and 8am.

From punters making a wide-eyed return from the South East Corner to hard-working security staff still on duty, Haller’s photo book offers a unique look at the best party on Earth and was shot over the course of an entire weekend at Glastonbury 2024.

Haller explained that the idea came to him after his photos in Not Going Home were shared online by the British Culture Archive in 2024 and attracted thousands of likes within weeks.

“Glastonbury is this unique place where people are letting go for five days and you can explore it from a very different angle because during they day you’ll see that people are always happy and posing,” Haller told Rolling Stone UK. “I wanted to do the opposite and take these documentary photos in the early mornings and not get people to pose, but catch them in these real moments to see what is going on at that time.”

It was Haller’s first time at the festival, and he favoured early nights in his tent in order to rise early and catch festival-goers at the most unique of times.

“I wanted to show the sheer joy that comes with letting go for five days and living in a way you can’t live otherwise because it would probably ruin you,” he added. “It shows people having so much fun. Some are high on life, some are quite probably high on some other things, but they’re all there together and having these amazing experiences.”

Poignantly, the last book of the photo also shows two friends returning home with one draping his arm over the other’s back.

“I think it nicely summed up the fact that these two mates had such a nice time,” Haller explained. “But these two people were walking back to their tent at 5am on Monday morning, knowing that they’ll probably do exactly the same thing next year.”
