Glastonbury Ticket Information. The ultimate question I get asked is how do I get Glastonbury Tickets? On this page, we try to cover every bit of information on securing a Glastonbury Ticket.
Where do I buy Glastonbury Tickets?
First of all, there is only one place you can buy Glastonbury Tickets and that is with See Tickets. This is the official link: https://glastonbury.seetickets.com/content/extras
No other site or agency is allowed to sell Glastonbury tickets no matter how many claim to do so online. Each Glasto Ticket has the ticket holder’s photo on it and is non-transferable. I don’t know why other festivals and gigs don’t do this. It eliminates the touts straight away.
Glastonbury Ticket Scams
Every year I hear about people getting scammed trying to buy Glastonbury Tickets. In my Facebook Group alone there are hundreds of people trying to get in claiming they have tickets to sell. I or my wonderful members soon alert everyone and we kick them out.
X (Twitter) is also full of people claiming they have tickets. As Glastonbury state: No other site or agency will be allocated tickets. All tickets for the Festival are personalised to the individual named ticket holder and are strictly non-transferable. Security checks are carried out on arrival, and only the specified ticket holder will be admitted to the Festival.
We all want to attend the worlds greatest festival but please don’t fall for the above scams. If you don’t get tickets in the main sale, you can try in the resale or volunteer with some of the amazing organisations that help put the festival together. There will also be lots of Glastonbury Ticket Competitions popping up.
Glastonbury Ticket Registration
Everyone, aged 13 or over, who wishes to attend the Festival must be registered before they can pay a deposit. To find out more visit the official Glastonbury Site: https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/tickets/
Registration will close at 5pm (GMT) on Monday 11th November, after which there will be no opportunity to submit/edit a registration until after the November ticket sales.
How Much Do Glastonbury Tickets Cost?
General Admission full weekend tickets (valid from Wednesday 25th June to Sunday 29th June) for Glastonbury 2025 cost £373.50 + a £5 booking fee. (plus coach fare if booking a ticket + coach travel option).
You can book up to 6 tickets per transaction by paying a deposit of £75 per person when tickets go on sale (plus the coach fare, if you are booking a ticket + coach travel option).
The remaining balance will then be payable in the first week of April 2025 (from 09:00 BST Tuesday 1st April – 23:59 BST Monday 7th April) when it should be possible to add car parking passes and cancellation protection to your booking.
Postage and packing (£10.25) is charged per order – rather than per ticket – when paying your remaining ticket balance.
Tickets will be sold exclusively at glastonbury.seetickets.com.
When Do Glastonbury Tickets Go On Sale?
Ticket + coach travel options will go on sale at 6pm (GMT) on Thursday 14th November 2024, with general admission tickets on sale at 9am (GMT) on Sunday 17th November 2024.
If you have never tried to get Glastonbury Tickets, then read this post to see what it is like: Glastonbury Ticket Day
They sell out fast! See Tickets release Glasto tickets at 09:00 and they are normally gone by 09:30-09:45.
Buying Glastonbury Tickets (2024 update)
The booking process itself for 2025 will be the same as in previous years, however the way in which you join the booking process is changing.
Rather than refreshing the holding page to attempt to access the booking page, this year, when the ticket sale begins (at 6pm or 9am respectively) everyone who is already on the glastonbury.seetickets.com page will randomly be assigned a place in a queue to access the booking process.
Anyone who logs on once the sale has started will automatically be added to the back of the queue, so it’s important to make sure you are online ready at least a few minutes before the sale opens.
Once you are in the queue, a progress bar will indicate how close you are to reaching the booking page.
You may book up to 6 tickets per transaction by paying a deposit of £75 per person when tickets go on sale (plus the coach fare, if you are booking a ticket + coach travel option).
In order to make a booking you will need the registration number and registered postcode for each person you are booking a ticket for, as well as a valid debit or credit card with sufficient funds to cover your full transaction, and all the security information for that card.
Please be careful to enter all of your details accurately, as any details which don’t match will cause your transaction attempt to fail.
Glastonbury Ticket + Coach Information
If you are booking a ticket + coach travel option, you will be asked to choose the departure town (and time for towns with multiple departures).
It is only possible to book tickets from one departure town in a single transaction. If the option you have selected is not available, please choose a different town or day that is convenient for you.
Travel on the coach you have selected is mandatory in order to receive your Festival ticket, so please only book on routes that are feasible for you.
You must not book in the ticket + coach travel sale unless you are certain you will be able to travel on the coach you have selected, as travel on your chosen coach is mandatory in order to receive your Festival tickets.
If you are travelling with children aged 12 and under, who do not require an entry ticket for the Festival, you will need to book these additional coach seats whilst making your ticket + coach travel booking. If the additional seats required are not available when booking, please contact [email protected] upon completing your booking in order to enquire about purchasing additional coach seats (NB: standard fares apply).
Paying For Glastonbury Tickets
UK Tickets can be purchased with a UK debit card or Visa or Mastercard credit cards.
International Tickets can only be bought by Visa credit card or Mastercard credit card.
When Is The Glastonbury Ticket Resale?
Sometimes people who purchased tickets in November can’t make the festival in June. Think births, weddings and holidays! These tickets are returned to Glastonbury and are put for resale. The Glastonbury Resale is normally in April.
How Hard Is It To Get A Glastonbury Ticket?
Bloody hard! It gets harder every year. In 2019 2.4 million people registered to get a ticket. Over 100,000 tickets went in 36 minutes. It is amazing that we have managed to go 10 times. Sometimes it just works for you. Once we managed to get to the ticket payment page 3 times and managed to buy 18 tickets! Then in 2019, we didn’t get in at all but our friends managed to get us tickets in the resale.
Tips On Buying A Glastonbury Ticket
- Make sure you are registered and all the other people in your group are registered too.
- Create a spreadsheet of your group’s registration numbers, postcodes, and names.
- Copy and paste the above details.
- Make sure you have your debit/credit card at hand.
- Make sure you have sufficent funds in your account to pay for 6 deposits (4 in the resale).
- Let your bank know in advance that See Tickets is a trusted merchant.
- Create a WhatsApp group for the 6 people you are buying for. Or 4 people if you are trying in the resale.
- Use multiple devices. We have purchased tickets using mobiles, ipads and laptops. However, don’t use them all on the same IP address. This could harm your chances. So use 5G, and WIFI.
- Set an alarm for ticket purchase day.
- The sale starts at 09:00, try to get on the See Ticket page before 09:00. Especially now there is a queue stystem.
- Use multiple browsers, not tabs. Use a different browser on your ipad and phone.
- Keep all other websites closed apart from X (Twitter) as it will be there Glastonbury and See Tickets announce when all tickets have gone.
- Try to get as many friends as possible to try and get your tickets. Once they have paid, tell them to message you ASAP. Having friends that are not going to the festival to help gives you more of a chance.
- Leave the wifi off on your mobile. Many fans swear that they always get through on 4g and 5g.
- Find the best internet. Many of our friends go to work to get their tickets as the wifi is fast.
- Triple-check everyone’s details. I once gave the wrong registration number to my friends and almost lost the tickets.
- Once you get onto the booking page you have to be VERY careful what you do next. Sometimes the booking pages freeze or “hangs” and in this instance, Glastonbury has advised to “try pressing back once and then continue your booking from that point.”
- Don’t give up. We have heard people securing tickets right at the last minute so keep on trying.
Glastonbury Ticket Buying Process (2024 update)
Below are screenshots of the Glastonbury Ticket Buying Process. I know how confusing it is to get a Glasto ticket. I hope this helps.
The Holding Page
This is where you will start off. Sometimes this doesn’t load straight away. If the amount of traffic on the website is particularly high, you may see a reduced version of the See Tickets booking site, with a minimal holding page. This does not mean the site has crashed.
The Queue Page
What happens when you get to the front of the queue?
When you reach the front of the queue, you will be asked to enter the registration number and registered postcode for the lead booker and up to 5 other people for whom you are attempting to book tickets. You will have 10 minutes to complete this page before your session expires, however tickets are not allocated at this point.
The Registration Page
This is the page where you put in your details and all your friends details. When you proceed, the details you have provided will be displayed on the next page.
Registration Page Confirmation
This is the page that confirms you have put the correct details in. Please check that these are the people you expect to be booking tickets for, as these cannot be changed once you proceed with your booking.
If you are booking a Ticket + Coach travel option, you will be asked to choose a departure town (and time for towns with multiple departures). It is only possible to book tickets from one departure town in a single transaction. If the option you have selected is not available, please choose a different town or day that is convenient for you. Travel on the coach you have selected is mandatory in order to receive your Festival ticket, so please only book on routes that are feasible for you.
Please do not attempt to minimise the tab or open new tabs. If you move away from the tab you are on your session may expire.
Glastonbury Ticket Payment Page
This is the page where you enter your payment details. Any information entered after the timer expires will result in a failed transaction. Tickets are only allocated once your payment has been processed – so we would encourage you to enter your payment details swiftly (but accurately).
Depending on your device setting you may be offered other payment methods such as Google Pay or Apple Pay. It is your responsibility to ensure you are set up with the relevant service ahead of the sales to be able to use these methods. If you choose this option, it may show See Tickets’ registered name of ‘The Way Ahead Group’ as the payee.
