Glastonbury 2025 organisers confirm resale rules as fans face strict ticket limits

The resale is the last chance fans have to secure a ticket for the five-day event

Glastonbury hopefuls will have one final chance to secure a ticket to the 2025 festival this week.

A limited number of tickets for the Somerset festival, held at Worthy Farm from June 25 this year, will go on sale in two batches from tonight.

The first tickets - which include coach travel - will go on sale on Thursday, April 24, at 6pm, followed by a resale of general admission tickets at 9am on Sunday, April 27.

Anyone wanting to buy a ticket has been warned by organisers that only a "very limited" number will be available and they will likely sell out quickly. In November, general admission tickets sold out in less than 40 minutes.

Fans will only be able to buy a limited number of tickets if they manage to get through in the resale.

In the main sale, held in November, fans were able to purchase up to six tickets at a time. But in the resale, fans are subject to stricter limits.

Organisers have confirmed that fans will only be able to purchase up to two coach tickets and up to four general admission tickets per transaction in this year's ticket resales.

Each person who wants a ticket will need to have their own registration, and the lead booker will be required to enter registration numbers and postcodes for every person they are booking a ticket for.

Organisers have urged anyone buying a ticket in a group to ensure they have all of these details ready before the sale starts.

In the coach sale, tickets can only be brought for one destination per transaction.

Glastonbury tickets cost £378.50 each, and anyone buying a coach ticket will need to pay their coach fare on top of that.

The festival has changed the booking process this year so that anyone wanting a ticket must wait in a queue to get through to the booking page. Previously, ticket hopefuls were encouraged to refresh a landing page until a spot on the booking page opened up.

Explaining the new system, the Glastonbury website states: "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."

Tickets can be purchased with a UK debit card or Visa or Mastercard credit cards, however American Express is not accepted.

Glastonbury 2025 will see The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and Neil Young headline the Pyramid Stage, while Rod Stewart will perform in the Sunday legends tea time slot.

Charli XCX is set to headline the Other Stage along with Loyle Carner and the Prodigy. Other acts performing across the weekend include Biffy Clyro, Alanis Morissette, Noah Kahan, Wolf Alice, Wet Leg and Scissor Sisters.

The festival is then expected to take a break in 2026, holding a fallow year to allow the farmland to recover.
