Moment gates officially opened for Glastonbury 2024 as crowds flock to Worthy Farm

General admission tickets to Glastonbury Festival 2025 sold out within 20 minutes of going on sale on Sunday (27 April), leaving hundreds of fans gutted as they missed out on the chance to attend this year’s event at Worthy Farm.

The festival’s annual resale began at 9am BST, where any remaining general admission tickets were made available to hopeful music fans.

Any cancelled accommodation options, including for Worthy View, Sticklinch and campervan/caravan passes, will be made available today at 11am (BST).

The number of tickets that are made available depended on how many people did not pay the full amount after putting down their deposits in November.

Olivia Rodrigo, The 1975 and Neil Young are headlining Worthy Farm this year, with veteran rocker Rod Stewart taking the Legends’ slot.

Other acts on the eclectic lineup include Charli XCX, RAYE, Doechii, Loyle Carner, Biffy Clyro, The Libertines, Gracie Abrams, Lola Young and Shaboozey.

It's all over folks

Tickets to Glastonbury 2025 have officially SOLD OUT.

“On a morning of incredible demand, all of the tickets in today’s resale have now been sold.,” a brief statement from Glastonbury’s social media said.

“Thank you to everyone who bought one, and sorry to those who missed out.”

Sorry to those who missed out this year and congratulations to anyone who did manage to get their hands on tickets!

Top tips for getting tickets to Glastonbury Festival 2024

After the hiccup with registration earlier this month, things should hopefully run more smoothly as tickets go on general sale on Sunday (19 November).

1. A good internet connection. The last thing you need is your broadband failing at the precise moment the transaction is going through.

2. The time. You need to be on the tickets page on the Glastonbury website at precisely 6pm on Thursday 24 April, or 9am on Sunday 27 April for the general admission sale. So set your alarms!

3. Money at the ready. Make sure your correct bank details, including the right billing address, and know the answers to any additional security questions you might be asked by your card issuer (this is likely if you’re buying multiple tickets). If you plan on using a payment device such as Apple Pay or Google Pay, make sure it’s set up on your device before the sale begins.

Accept the terms and conditions and make sure you complete the check out within the allocated time slot. Once you reach the payment page you will have five minutes to submit your payment information, so make sure you enter all the information accurately. The time remaining will be shown on the right hand side of your screen.

4. It’s not over until the SOLD OUT sign appears on the Glastonbury website. So don’t freak out if you see a message notifying fans that “all available tickets have now been allocated”. That means the orders are being processed, but at least a few people end up running out of time... meaning the tickets are up for grabs again.

A word of caution: your registration numbers will be locked for up to five minutes if your details are entered incorrectly, an attempt to book is already held against your registration number, or your five minutes on the booking page ends. If the transaction fails and tickets are still available, your registration number will be released to give you the chance to try again.

5. Avoid multiple tabs. As stated on the Glastonbury website, trying to buy tickets on multiple tabs could actually put you at risk of confusing the ticket sales process and result in a failed transaction. “We strongly advise that you use just one browser tab when trying to book tickets, in order to avoid possible problems with your transaction,” Glastonbury says.
