Glastonbury’s 2027 return: £408 and the October rush

Monday 14th, 2026 - Various Artists

Registration closes at 5pm BST on 25 September 2026 after the fallow year; there is no line-up yet and the usual scramble is expected when the queues open in October.

Glastonbury Festival confirmed ticket arrangements for its 2027 edition on 8 September 2026, setting first sale dates following the traditional fallow year. The event returns to Worthy Farm in Somerset from Wednesday 23 June to Sunday 27 June 2027. Coach-and-ticket packages become available at 6pm BST on Thursday 1 October 2026; general admission tickets go on sale at 9am BST on Sunday 4 October 2026. General admission is priced at £408, including a £5 booking fee. It is the first time the festival’s main ticket has exceeded £400. Each registered buyer may purchase up to six tickets, with a £100 deposit taken at the point of sale and the balance due in early April 2027. The structure keeps the familiar deposit-and-balance rhythm while locking in a headline price that will define this edition before a stage bill is published.


Registration before anything else Access to the sale is not automatic. Fans must register individually in advance at glastonburyregistration.co.uk. Registration closes at 5pm BST on Friday 25 September 2026 — a hard cut-off less than a fortnight from the announcement, and the only gate into coach packages or the general admission sale. Without a completed registration there is no route into the October sales. The festival has long treated that list as the practical foundation of the whole process; nothing in the 2027 arrangements changes that order of business. No line-up details were attached. Headliners, stage bills and special guests remain unconfirmed. For an event that routinely sells out within hours of the queues opening, that silence is not a softener: demand has historically rested on the reputation of the weekend as much as on any single confirmed name, and the pattern of tickets first, poster later is unchanged.


After the fallow year 2026 is a fallow year — the pause the festival traditionally takes to let Worthy Farm rest. The June 2027 return therefore carries the weight of a full calendar year without the event. For regulars, the five days in Somerset sit as a fixed point; for the organisers, the quiet year is part of the long stewardship of the site. Crossing back after that break, with a price that has broken the £400 line, frames the sale as both a resumption and a marker. The practical sequence from here is short and exact. Register before 5pm BST on 25 September 2026. Coach-and-ticket packages open at 6pm BST on 1 October 2026. General admission follows at 9am BST on 4 October 2026. Up to six tickets per person, £100 down, balance in early April 2027. The rest — who plays, which stages carry the weight of the weekend, how the fields feel after a year left fallow — will arrive on its own timetable. Until then the only numbers that matter are the ones already set: the dates, the deposit, the £408, and the registration deadline that decides who even gets a place in the queue.
