Glastonbury 2014 Ticket Details announced

It’s probably one of the most stressful Sunday mornings you’re ever likely to experience, but a number of people estimated to be well beyond a million will all be frantically pressing refresh and manning as many phone-lines as they can feasibly manage on Sunday 6^th October – the day Glastonbury tickets go on sale.

This year’s festival finally saw the Rolling Stones make it to Worthy Farm and already the rumour mill about who will make next year has hit overdrive. Fleetwood Mac, David Bowie, Kanye West, Foo Fighters and a recreation of Jesus Christ’s Last Supper with holograms of 2Pac, Biggie Smalls and jack the Ripper are amongst the suggestions fizzing around the cyber world.

If you’re one of the lucky few that gets it then you’ll pay a £50 deposit before being invoiced for the final £165 in April next year, £5 of that being the booking fee. There’s also some good news for green travellers, with 15000 tickets being released a few days earlier for those travelling by coach. There’s already been plenty of unrest about the possibility of people trying to circumvent the rules around these but with you being given your ticket on the coach at an unnamed point of the journey down, it’d seem pretty churlish to try and bend the rules on that one.

All this hassle begs the question; is it worth it? The short answer to that is a resounding yes. Glastonbury is hugely oversubscribed because quite frankly it’s bloody brilliant, and as our reviewer experienced earlier in the summer always memorable. It’s never fun trying to get a ticket, the trend to arrive earlier than ever this year to pitch tents also adds an unneeded extra day for many but once that place gets going it could well be the best four days of your life.
