Glastonbury 2027 Tickets Sell Out in 42 Minutes
Confirmed
In Short: Glastonbury Festival 2027 tickets sold out in just 42 minutes, organisers announced on Instagram shortly after 09:40 BST, following a fallow year.
Thousands of people joined the online queue at 09:00 BST, hoping to secure tickets for the festival at Worthy Farm in Somerset, which returns from 23 to 27 June.
The first round of tickets, which were for coach packages, went up for sale on Thursday and sold out in less than half an hour.
General admission tickets for the 2027 event are priced at £408 each, including a £5 booking fee, plus postage and packing.
Fans who missed out on tickets expressed disappointment, while those who secured tickets were ecstatic.
Organisers confirmed that any tickets from today's sale that are not paid for in full by the early April 2027 deadline will be put back into an official resale pool.
The resale of any cancelled or returned tickets will be held in Spring 2027, offering another chance to buy a limited number of tickets.
A couple who first met at Glastonbury will be heading to Worthy Farm next year to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary.
Fans noted that Sir Rod Stewart had a Glastonbury-shaped hole during his last tour, The Final Encore.
Headliners for the 2027 festival have yet to be announced, but organisers are reportedly very excited.
Zoe Scott, who has been to the festival twice, said, “The price is totally worth it.”
Mat told the BBC that he used to watch the festival on TV with Amy when she was little, promising to take her when she was five years old.
Nick told BBC Your Voice that they were “absolutely delighted” to be going back.
