Glastonbury tickets are by no means cheap and next year’s eye-watering ticket price has fans crying as sale day dawns.
With an overhauled ticket system – featuring a fancy new queue – fans are preparing to hand over hundreds in a bid to see the still unannounced headliners.

However, cost doesn’t seem to be stopping music lovers as last year over 2.5million of us tried to grab tickets, with an estimated 6million devices set to battle it out for 2025’s festival.
