How best to get your Glastonbury tickets

United Kingdom | | 02 April 2008

Here's a guide to how best get your hands on tickets. Now don't forget to set that alarm clock... 

Those hoping to go to the festival this June must have already completed the registration process and received their unique registration number. You are then eligible to purchase up to four tickets for the event.

If you are buying tickets for friends or family you must have their unique registration numbers and their surnames ready as well.

There are two ways of buying your tickets: online or by phone. Organisers recommend that buying online is the best way to purchase tickets, but more tickets are being made available on the phones this year.

Seetickets.com is the only Glastonbury’s official online ticket outlet, please do not try and buy tickets from any other site. For a better chance of getting a ticket you should make sure you have a fast broadband connection.

The number you will need to call if you’re trying to buy over the phone is 0800 079 2008 for UK tickets.

Weekend tickets will cost £155 each as well as £5 booking fee and an additional £4 for post and packaging. Debit cards (Visa Debit, Visa Electron, Switch/Maestro & Solo only), cheques and postal orders are the only acceptable payments.

Cheques and postal orders must be sent within five working days to: PO BOX 9091, Nottingham, NG1 9DA. All cheques must be made out to Glastonbury Festival 2008 Ltd.

Glastonbury Festival 2008 takes place at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset with Kings Of Leon, Jay-Z and The Verve headlining, plus loads more already either self confirmed or hotly rumoured. See HERE.

The full line up will be released in early June, according to organiser Emily Eavis.
