The highly anticipated Glastonbury ticket sales are finally here, and it's safe to say that it's as intense as ever. As soon as coach tickets for the 2025 festival were released on Thursday, they sold out within a mere 30 minutes. And today, with general admission tickets now available, the chaos continues. The new queue system has caused mayhem as a glitch left fans stuck on the dreaded "two bars" loading screen.
Within just 30 minutes, all tickets were snatched up, leaving some fans ecstatic and others devastated. The legendary music festival, known for its star-studded lineups, featured big names like Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA this past summer, raising the bar for future shows. And now, with names like Olivia Rodrigo, Green Day, and Sam Fender in the mix, fans are eagerly trying to secure their spot for 2025.
On Thursday, thousands of hopefuls flooded the website as the sale opened at 6pm, with tickets selling out in a record-breaking 32 minutes. The new queue system randomly assigned each person a spot, causing quite a stir. The official Glastonbury account tweeted, "Tickets for Glastonbury 2025 have now sold out. Thanks to everyone who bought one and sorry to those who missed out, on a morning when demand was much higher than supply." But for those who were left disappointed, there is still a chance to snag a ticket in the resale next spring.
The frustration was evident as fans took to social media to vent about their unsuccessful attempts at getting tickets. Some were stuck on the infamous "two bars" loading screen, while others were booted out of the queue altogether. It seems the new system did not sit well with fans, who are hoping for a return to the old method of frantic refreshing in the future.
For those who were lucky enough to secure a ticket, the excitement is palpable. However, they still have to wait until closer to the festival to find out who the headliners will be. And with the option to purchase up to six tickets per transaction, it's important to have all payment details ready and make a deposit of £75 per person.
In a new change this year, each person over the age of 13 must have their own individual registration number and postcode to purchase a ticket. This was implemented to make the process smoother, but it remains to be seen if it was successful.
To those who were able to snag a ticket, congratulations! Hopefully, the headliners will live up to the hype. And for those who weren't so lucky, there's always next year. But for now, let's celebrate the excitement and anticipation for another unforgettable Glastonbury festival.
