Cara Delevingne's Ultimate Festival Survival Guide
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Missing a year of the Glastonbury Festival would feel like missing a birthday for Cara Delevingne. In fact, the British model and actress prioritizes a weekend on Worthy Farm so much that she gets it written into job contracts that she's not available for the June dates. It's non-negotiable. 'It's the festival I've been to the most and it's the one I will go to forever,' she says from her home in Los Angeles. 'Missing a year makes me feel like I'm missing my own birthday—that's what it feels like. If I'm doing a movie or something, I'll always put it into a contract.' It makes sense, then, that the music fan is fronting Burberry's latest campaign, which champions England's long-standing love affair of days spent outdoors listening to music, from Glastonbury to Green Man. 'I grew up going to festivals and I grew up wearing Burberry,' she says. 'I feel really grateful and very honored to be in the campaign. Burberry are just the loveliest people to work for and work with. It's always been that way. So, to come back to it, it's like coming home.' Delevingne isn't alone in her fan-girling, as Burberry's line-up also includes Liam Gallagher, Loyle Carner, Alexa Chung, and Lennon Gallagher, Molly Moorish-Gallagher, and Gene Gallagher. 'It was honestly very surreal,' she says of the campaign. 'It was like we're at a festival, but where you can play your own music. It was kind of ideal. Sometimes when you're on shoots and they're like 'smile,' and you have to force it, but this was actually me just having a fucking blast.' In the accompanying photos, Delevingne wears three looks, made up of a consortium of festival-ready pieces that would easily fit into her own wardrobe. And there was one piece that did travel home with her that day. 'Don't worry, I was honest and said that I'm taking it—I do not wear skirts a lot, but it's a Burberry kilt,' she shares. 'I remember showing up to my sister's birthday in this kilt a couple of days later, and everyone looked at me because they hadn't seen me in a skirt since I was forced to wear one. I would never choose to wear a skirt, but a kilt is different. I am definitely taking it with me to festivals.' Festival memories run deep for Delevingne, but there's something about her first time attending as a 15-year-old that stands out the most. 'I think the first time going to a festival is just always the most insane thing,' she confesses. 'The first time I went to Glastonbury, someone's ticket was fake and we had to break someone in. Six of us were sleeping in a three-man pop-up tent, and it was absolute chaos. It felt like a real pilgrimage to find where we were going and to find our friends. And then finally you get there. I miss that part of festivals, obviously, maybe not the camping, but yes, squeezing everything in a pop-up tent. But I miss how hard it is to get it sorted and get it done. When things are so hard, it does make the payoff so much better.' Now in her early thirties, things have changed. 'My back can't handle it,' she laughs. 'Also, being sober is so different at a festival. They tell you when you get sober that you won't feel like shit the next day, but you do because you stay up late. Anyways, I'm just old now, and if you go to sleep too late, you just feel like ass.' While the idea of a festival usually conjures images of massive sound systems set amongst otherwise peaceful green fields, there is a bit more variety in the U.K., whether it's the Notting Hill Carnival or Pride. 'I try to live proudly all year round,' Delevingne says. 'Queer people are not only the most eccentric, but also the most creative. There's not trying to be normal, which I feel like when you live suppressing something for so long, when you finally live freely [to be] who you are, you want to just be the most yourself you've ever been, and I think that comes out in a way that queer people celebrate each other and celebrate being queer, because it really is all or nothing.' As Pride Month takes hold, Delevingne admits that this could be one of the most crucial in our lifetime so far. 'It seems throughout history that you take two steps forward and take three steps back,' she says. 'And I think that in these moments when we're being pushed back, we really just have to keep pushing forward and keep being represented and representing ourselves. That to me is the most important thing.' 'I have a few essentials that I always bring now [that] I'm a bit older—one is a camel pouch. It's small, it's sleek, you can put it under your jacket, just so you can have water wherever you go. Shove electrolytes in there, whatever works.' 'I also always bring a head torch. I think there's something about getting lost in the dark when I was at Glastonbury in the first year that slightly traumatized me for life, because I bring a head torch wherever I go. Even if I go on holiday, I always bring one.' 'I never think it's a problem wearing the same thing twice at Glastonbury, just as long as you cover all bases, of, like, an umbrella that can be used in the rain or the sun. It doesn't usually rain, but you need to be prepared. I don't like wellies unless it's raining. I do a lot of walking, and I like to move very far around the festival in a day. So, I prefer hiking shoes.'

Nilüfer Yanya Announces New EP Dancing Shoes, Reveals New Song 'Where to Look': Stream
The post Nilüfer Yanya Announces New EP Dancing Shoes, Reveals New Song 'Where to Look': Stream appeared first on Consequence. Nilüfer Yanya is back to announce a new EP, Dancing Shoes, set for release on July 2nd. She's also unveiled the new song 'Where to Look.' Dancing Shoes follows Yanya's 2024 album, My Method Actor, which we deemed one of the best releases of the year. Comprised of four new tracks, Dancing Shoes was written and produced with Yanya's close collaborator Wilma Archer during and in between tour dates supporting My Method Actor. The EP also features 'Cold Heart,' which arrived last month. Get Nilüfer Yanya Tickets Here Reprising her raw, spellbinding guitar work and considered attention to mood and atmosphere, 'Where to Look' has all the touchstones of Yanya's dynamic indie rock sound. The song really begins to lift off in the second chorus, where Yanya's guitar stumbles into a wall of fuzzy reverb and provides more power and emotion behind her croons. While the EP it's on is called Dancing Shoes, 'Where to Look' isn't exactly dancefloor-friendly, instead boasting a more introspective tone. Stream the track below. Yanya has a busy 2025 ahead of her; in addition to a busy summer performing at festivals like Glastonbury and London's All Points East, she'll return to North America for a lengthy stretch of shows opening for Alex G. She'll then head back to Europe for a handful of dates opening for Lorde. See her full list of tour dates below, and get tickets to see Nilüfer Yanya here. Dancing Shoes Artwork: Tracklist: 01.
