It's that time of year when our social media timelines are divided into two - those who did get Glastonbury tickets and those who did not.

Yep, Glasto' tickets went on sale this morning, and as per, they sold out super quick.

Millions of fans frantically tried to secure tickets, but they were gone in just 36 minutes.

It was particularly frustrating for those who missed out, after the change to the queuing system and *that* dreaded loading bar debacle.

If you didn't manage to get hold of tickets, first off, commiserations. But secondly, you might be pleased to know that there are other ways to get your hands on some.

Despite the sell-out, there are a few other opportunities to bag Glastonbury 2025 tickets.

We've listed all the ways below.

Buy through the re-sale

Those who did manage to bag tickets will likely have paid a deposit, with the final balance due a few months before the festival.

If the balance isn't paid for whatever reason, the ticket is released, which means that after this period of time (usually in the spring before the festival), a number of tickets go back on sale.

This usually happens in April, although a date has not been announced yet.

Volunteering

ICYMI, Glastonbury 2025 tickets cost £378.50 (including the booking fee) which is up from £355 last year.

Looking back at previous years, it means the price of Glasto has gone up by a whopping 40 percent since 2019. In the time since then, Brits have dealt with the Covid pandemic and a major cost of living crisis that is still going on for so many people.

Naturally, many people find this unaffordable, but one way to attend Glasto' for 'free' is by volunteering at the event.

Yes, you're working, but you'll also be right in the action, too.

Speaking in 2023, organiser Emily Eavis said: "We have tried very hard to minimise the increase in price on the ticket but we’re facing enormous rises in the costs of running this vast show, whilst still recovering from the huge financial impact of two years without a festival because of COVID.

"As always, there will be opportunities for many thousands of people to come as volunteers or part of the crew."

There are a number of organisations that offer volunteering at Glastonbury - such as Oxfam, Water Aid and Greenpeace, so head to their websites directly to apply.

You can also volunteer to be part of the festival's recycling team, as a tent steward or campsite warden.

Work for your ticket

There are also a number of limited roles available directly with Glastonbury Festival, including jobs in finance, customer service and traffic.

You can head over to the website directly for these and it's expected they'll start recruiting in the new year.
