Tickets to the legendary Glastonbury Festival 2025 sold out just 35 minutes after opening, organizers announced as countless hopeful attendees left disappointed. Thousands of eager fans logged into an online queue at 9:00 AM GMT, but every ticket had been snapped up by 9:35 AM.
The five-day event at Worthy Farm, Somerset, from June 25 to June 29, is the final edition of the festival before a planned hiatus in 2026, which will give the grounds a break. Tickets ran to £373.50, including a booking fee of £5, a relatively small increase of £18.50 against the cost in 2024.
The festival team noted the high demand in a message on X, noting that: “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. There will be a resale of any cancelled or returned tickets in spring 2025.”.
With Glastonbury having been so rightly associated with its lively atmosphere and out-of-this-world lineups, excitement was high for 2025 although the lineup performers are yet to be announced. The web ticket procedure had an automatic queue system this time around. Before the sale could begin, customers had to be ready with their valid registration number. Registration for the event went till 11th November and sold a maximum of six tickets per customer.
By 2024, the festival had gathered some 210,000 attendants; prominent ones included Coldplay, Dua Lipa and SZA, which became a pleasure for the famous Pyramid Stage, and Shania Twain took up the golden Sunday Legends position. Dua Lipa was in view of attention due to her dynamic performance, and all the faces of the event indicated that she is just extremely energetic live.
For the 2025 ticket holders, full payment by 7th April 2025. Tickets not paid for will be put up for resale. The organizers also encouraged environmentally conscious travel, with pleas to take up the available combined ticket and coach packages, which went on sale earlier in this week.
Speculation over who’ll top the bill at Worthy Farm is already starting to unfold as the countdown begins to June 2025. With Glastonbury’s record of securing the world’s best acts, anticipation is only rising, even for those waiting patiently for tickets during the spring resale.
