Glastonbury sells out fast

By | Published on Monday 4 October 2010

I think it’s reassuring that we are back into a period where Glastonbury sells out almost immediately – I found that whole ‘Glastonbury not selling out until the last minute thing’ rather disturbing.

But yes, after the wobble of 2008, the uber-fest has fully regained its status as the music event that sells out in no time whatsoever, whatever the line up, with all 137,500 public tickets for the June 2011 event selling out yesterday within hours of going on sale, eight hours quicker than they did last year. The only way to get a ticket now will be to buy a return once they go on sale – registration for returns is now open on the Glasto website.

2011 ticket sales may have been further boosted by the fact 2012 will be one of Glastonbury occasional fallow years.
