Fans ticked off after Glasto 2025 sells out in 37 minutes

Unlucky fans who did not bag tickets to next year’s Glastonbury Festival have taken to social media to slam the new ticket queue system.
Festival organisers debuted a setup yesterday where punters were “randomly assigned a place in the queue” rather than refreshing the holding page when tickets went live. Tickets to the 2025 event sold out after 37 minutes, with hopefuls branding the new process as “outrageous” and “horrendous”.
One addressed the organiser as they posted on social media: “@emilyeavis why oh why have you input this system. Worse than before. Punters hate it being out of their control. It’s horrendous.”
