GLASTONBURY 2025 tickets will be sold in a slightly different way – which could help those trying to get to the festival.

Organisers have announced the sale – which happen online this month – will employ a ‘queue’ system, in a bid to better manage the rush.

People logging on to buy tickets when the sale begins – at 6pm on November 14 for coach and ticket packages, or 9am on November 17 for general access – will be randomly assigned a place in the queue to access booking.

“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,” a spokesperson said.

“Once you are in the queue, a progress bar will indicate how close you are to reaching the booking page.

“Please do not refresh this page or use multiple devices or tabs or you may lose your place in the queue.”

When buyers reach the front of the queue, they will be asked to enter the registration number and registered postcode for the lead booker and up to five other people.

They will have 10 minutes to complete this page before the session expires, although tickets are not allocated at this point.

“When you proceed, the details you have provided will be displayed on the next page,” the spokesperson went on.

If all information is correct and confirmed, the checkout must be completed in a reasonable time before tickets are allocated.

The spokesperson said people should aim to “enter your payment details swiftly (but accurately)”.

“If the amount of traffic on the website is particularly high, you may see a reduced version of the See Tickets booking site, with a minimal holding page. This does not mean the site has crashed,” they added.

“Depending on your device setting you may be offered other payment methods such as Google Pay or Apple Pay.

“It is your responsibility to ensure you are set up with the relevant service ahead of the sales to be able to use these methods.

“If you choose this option, it may show See Tickets’ registered name of ‘The Way Ahead Group’ as the payee.

“Please ensure you have access to any device needed to pass additional security questions from your card issuer.”

They said the process could see people on the booking page still not allocated tickets, as their payment has not been processed.

The 2025 Glastonbury Festival takes place at Worthy Farm, Pilton, between June 25 and 29.
