Glastonbury fans have been left ‘choking’ over the eye-watering ticket price for next year’s festival.

This year’s Worthy Farm event saw the likes of Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA hit the Pyramid Stage as thousands of music fans made the pilgrimage to the iconic annual event.

Each year, a big talking point among festivalgoers is the cost of attending the live music events and whether the rise will stop wider audiences from pitching a tent and enjoying their favourite bands in the sunshine – or, most likely, the pouring rain.

And 2025 will be no different, with general admission full-price tickets for Glastonbury 2025 costing £373.50 plus a £5 booking fee, making a total of £378.50.

Included in the price is a ticket to the full five-day festival and camping, plus a range of other perks including a free mobile phone charger and access to the Kidzfield area.

It’s a 40% increase from the 2019 festival before the Covid-19 pandemic and the cost of living crisis, when a ticket costed £248.

But fans weren’t impressed with the price hike after Glastonbury 2024 already cost attendees £355.

In 2023, a general admission full-price ticket for the event would set Glastonbury fans back £335, plus a £5 booking fee.

‘Just saw the new price for Glastonbury tickets and almost choked,’ Georgiamaew_ wrote on X.

RogerFever pointed out: ‘2022 tickets were £280. This is getting ridiculous.’

Others predicted that following the fallow year in 2026, tickets for 2027 and beyond could cost fans more than £400.

Some fans thought that the price is ‘reasonable’ for the number of bands that perform, and branded Glastonbury Festival the ‘best place on Earth.’

Ticket and coach travel options will go on sale at 6pm GMT on Thursday, November 14, while general admission tickets will go on sale at 9am GMT on Sunday, November 17.

They will once again be sold exclusively through See Tickets, and hopeful buyers will need to register for Glastonbury Festival. Everyone aged 13 or over who wishes to buy a ticket must be individually registered.

The Glastonbury website confirms that you buy up to six tickets per transaction and you must pay a deposit of £75 per person when tickets go on sale, plus the coach fare if you are booking a coach travel package.

Fans have already begun speculating who could nab a coveted spot on the Pyramid Stage and perform at the 2025 festival.

Ed Sheeran is rumoured to be in talks for a headline slot, with a source claiming to The Sun: ‘Ed adores performing at Glastonbury and getting to sing to so many fans on a massive scale.

‘He hasn’t got any big UK gigs lined up next summer, so this would be really special.’

Harry Styles could be another act for Glastonbury 2025, with music icon Cher apparently in talks for the coveted Sunday teatime Legends slot.

Glastonbury Festival 2025 general admission ticket and coach packages go on sale at 6pm GMT on Thursday, November 14, while general admission tickets will go on sale at 9am GMT on Sunday, November 17.
