when is it, who’s playing and how to get tickets?

After another action-packed weekend, Glastonbury is over for another year – but now the festival has officially confirmed dates for next year. Check out everything we know about the Glasto 25 so far below.

This year’s festival saw Dua Lipa, Coldplay and SZA headline the Pyramid Stage at Worthy Farm, with Shania Twain taking the legends slot. Other artists to perform over the weekend included Little Simz, Justice, Avril Lavigne, The National, LCD Soundsystem, Fontaines D.C. and Idles.

In a four-star review, NME described Lipa’s Friday headline set as “a glittering celebration of pop in its highest form,” while calling Coldplay’s four-star performance on Saturday “a good crack at making history with a set that felt like home.”

NME gave SZA’s Sunday headline performance a four-star review, calling it “hypnotic and potent”, though it received a mixed reception due to the technical and audio difficulties the R&B star faced throughout her set.

But now, Glastonbury co-organiser Emily Eavis is already looking ahead to next year’s festival. Here’s what we know so far about Glastonbury 2025.

When is Glastonbury 2025?

The 2025 festival will run from Wednesday June 25 to Sunday June 29 – and it traditionally takes place on the last weekend of June.

When will tickets go on sale?

We don’t know when tickets will go on sale for 2025’s festival, but last year tickets for 2024 went on sale at 6pm GMT on November 16 for tickets with coach travel and sold out in 25 minutes. General admission tickets went on sale at 9am on November 19 – all tickets were bought by 10am.

Re-sale tickets for 2024 went on sale in April, for any tickets that were unwanted by fans or for any balances that had not been paid. Coach and ticket options went on sale at 6pm BST on April 18, selling out in just 18 minutes. Glastonbury 2024 had the “highest percentage of ticket balances paid ever” – meaning that “very limited” tickets were available in the re-sale, according to festival boss Emily Eavis. Meanwhile, general admission tickets went on re-sale sale at 9am BST on April 21 and sold out in 22 minutes.

We should expect general tickets to go on sale in November before a re-sale in the spring, usually in April.

How much will tickets be?

General admission tickets in 2024 cost £355, plus a £5 booking fee. This was an increase of £20 from 2023. Meanwhile, tickets in 2022 were £75 cheaper than the following year.

We don’t know how much tickets will be for Glastonbury 2025, but we can expect to find out by the autumn and to be around £355 or perhaps with a slight increase.

How and when do I register for tickets to Glastonbury 2025?

If you want to be in with a chance of heading to Glastonbury next year, you’ll need to register first if you haven’t already. The organisers require everyone aged 13 or over heading to the festival to have their own valid registration number, in a bid to cut down on touts. So, each general admission ticket will come with a photo of the ticket holder printed on it.

If you plan to buy tickets for other people, they all need to be registered too. You’ll need their registration numbers and corresponding postcodes if you’re planning to buy tickets on their behalf.

It’s free to register and doesn’t take long, but registration usually closes for a few weeks around each ticket sale – and it’s a good idea to give yourself time to re-submit your registration if you need to – it’s best to register sooner rather than later.

To register, simply start by entering your email address. Within an hour, you’ll be sent a unique link to allow you to start the registration process. You can use the link multiple times for different people if you wish to, but you’ll need to wait 10 minutes before submitting each registration. When registering, you’ll need to provide some basic contact details along with a passport-standard photo.

Last year, the festival told fans that anyone who registered for tickets prior to 2020 would need to review and confirm their registration before 2024 tickets went on sale, so even if you’ve registered in the past you may need to review your registration. Check out Glastonbury’s website for more information.

When will the Glastonbury 2025 line-up be revealed and who’s playing?

We don’t know who’ll be playing yet. Usually, the initial line-up announcement comes in March, with each stage and area sharing its full line-up in the following months and weeks leading up to the festival.

Among the high-profile names rumoured for next year include Taylor Swift, Eminem, Harry Styles, Rihanna, Sam Fender and The Rolling Stones.

Eavis has revealed that Glastonbury is already in talks with some artists for next year, so more information is likely to come in the following months.

Will next year be a fallow year?

To help the land on Worthy Farm recover, Glastonbury usually takes every fifth year off as a fallow year. The last official fallow year was 2018, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 and 2021 became unofficial fallow years too.

Next year won’t be a fallow year, but 2026 will be, according to festival boss Emily Eavis.
