The legendary Glastonbury Festival finally returns next week, after the 2020 and 2021 events cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

This year’s Glasto will see performances from an array of all-star acts, including headline slots from Billie Eilish, Sir Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar, and Diana Ross.

Music lovers weren’t able to get their hands on tickets for this year’s event as they rolled over from the 2020 festival – however, wannabe revellers can soon nab a spot at Worthy Farm in 2023.

But when could tickets for Glastonbury 2023 go on sale, and how can you sign up?

Here is everything you need to know.

Before you can buy tickets, however, you need to register on the Glastonbury website to be in with a chance to grab one of the hotly sought-after tickets.

The registration is in an effort to stop ticket touts buying up tickets, giving fans more of a chance to attend the five-day event.

The link is usually open all the way up until tickets go on sale – so there’s plenty of time left for music fans to sign up.

To register, you must first submit a photograph from your computer.

According to the Glastonbury website, the photo must meet the following criteria:

A recent, colour photograph of the head and shoulders, in sharp focus with the entire face visibleYou must be facing forward, looking straight at the camera, with a plain expression, your eyes open, and mouth closedYour photo should be passport-standard and portrait orientation once cropped. Landscape photos will not be acceptedPhotos must be taken against a plain and light backgroundPhotos must not be altered by editing software or filtersPlease ensure you have a neutral expression with your mouth closed and eyes open, looking directly at the cameraPlease do not wear hats, sunglasses, or anything that covers your face and be free of glare from glasses or ‘red-eye’Your photo must not contain other objects or peopleThe photo must be jpeg format, between 100KB to 500KB in size, and at least 900 pixels wide and 1350 pixels tall

Once you upload your photo you can choose its orientation and crop it to meet the criteria above.

After this, you can enter your details including your title, name, email address, phone number, and home address.

If your photo is rejected and you must upload a new one for you to be registered.

However, once it is accepted, you will be sent your registration number and you can edit your details.

If you plan to buy tickets for others, they all need to be registered.

Anyone twelve or under when gates open does not need a ticket and does not need to register.

When are tickets expected to go on sale?

No date has been confirmed for Glastonbury 2023 tickets to go on sale, though it is expected to be in early October.

Fans will have multiple chances to get their hands on tickets, with a resale date usually set to take place for those who didn’t get tickets during general sale.

Glastonbury tickets are notoriously hard to get hold of, with the 2020 event selling out in 33 minutes.

Tickets from this event rolled over to 2021 and then again to 2022 – making this year’s festival even harder to get into when resale rolled around.

When ticket resale took place in March, it sold out in just 20 minutes.
