Tickets for the 2027 Glastonbury Festival have sold out within minutes of going on general sale, as thousands of music fans competed for places at the Somerset event.
General admission opened at 9am on Sunday, 4 October, with tickets selling out at around 9:42am. The festival's official website later confirmed that no tickets remained from the morning sale.
The festival will return to Worthy Farm in Somerset from 23 to 27 June 2027, following a traditional fallow year in 2026.
This year's general admission ticket price has risen above the £400 mark for the first time. Tickets cost £408 each, including a £5 booking fee, with an additional £11.25 postage charge per order.
The rapid sell-out came despite a new online queuing system introduced for this year's sale. Registered buyers were randomly assigned a position in the queue, with organisers warning customers not to refresh the page or use multiple devices and tabs.
Coach-and-ticket packages had already sold out in less than 30 minutes during an earlier sale on Thursday.
The demand means many fans who failed to secure tickets will now have to wait for another opportunity. Glastonbury organisers say a resale of cancelled or returned tickets will take place in spring 2027, although the exact date has not yet been announced.
The 2027 festival's headline acts have not yet been publicly announced. More than 200,000 people are expected to attend the five-day event when it returns to Worthy Farm.
Despite the higher ticket price, the speed of the sell-out underlines the continued demand for one of Britain's biggest music festivals.
