Punters shocked as Glastonbury 2024 drink prices increase yet again
Glastonbury is all about the music - but we're kidding ourselves if we say that's all we're there for.
A cultural experience spanning art, dance, comedy, theatre, and even the circus, it's a creative melting pot with something for everyone.
But even then, let's put all that aside for two things and two things only. The food and drink.
Advert
Keeping topped up at a festival, whether food or booze, is essential to many when it comes to having a fun and fulfilled time, with our taste buds are at the core of everything when it comes to getting the good endorphins flowing.
And gone are the days where a greasy burger van or hot dog stand were the best options available to us.
For Glastonbury 2024, there will be more than 300 food vendors across the massive camp site and stage arenas.
And thanks to unofficial Glasto information website, Glastopedia, there's a very easy way to get the information you need depending on where you are.
It goes so much further than that, too, with you able to search via cuisine, area of the festival site, and dietary filters including vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, and nut free.
Short bios also exist for every vendor, with the ability to bookmark them if they tickle your fancy.
Glastopedia took to X (formerly Twitter) in the lead up to the 2024 festival, writing: “Wish you could search through food vendors in the new Glasto app? "Yeah, me too. So I added them all here — filter by location, cuisine, recommendations, and more!
“Major thanks to Whitelighted from the OOF Discord too, for sourcing dietary info, menus, and so much more."
Cuisine-wise there is everything from American and Italian to Caribbean, Mexican, Japanese, Thai, German, British, and Moroccan - a truly global experience, if you fancy it.
To see the full list and to virtually pre-order what you want, head over to glastopedia.com/food.
Glastonbury 2024 drink prices
Another thing that those attending Glastonbury are always keen to know is how much alcohol costs at the festival. And rightly so. As we know, it tends to be slightly more expensive than your average night out...
Well, thanks to a certain insider account on X, festival goers need wonder no more.
So for your standard pilsner on tap, you're looking at £6.75, which is up 25p on last year's prices, while a bottle of wine costs around £30 this year compared to last year's £29. So while prices have indeed increased slightly, it's not by a ridiculously inflated amount.
Some, however, are still fuming at the rise in prices. Especially when it comes to water. "£2.50 for a can of water is criminal," one said.
"Drink prices at events these days are ridiculous. They’ve basically doubled in about 4 years. I’m taking multiple coolboxes and frozen water bottles and will buy extra ice on Sunday. Last year only bought 3 drinks and had coldies all festie. No queues either!" another advised.
Another user urged caution alongside a side by side view of the increase of prices, and a reminder that while prices have increased, this is at just one of the many bars available and so that prices may differ from stall to stall.
It tends to be the case that drink prices are slightly more expensive at festivals, just as they are at gigs and most events.
One thing to note is that you can take unlimited amounts of your own booze into Glastonbury, so if you want to avoid the bar prices, just make sure you take enough of your own goods in with you!
