Music fans call for Glastonbury Festival to introduce ticket ballot in future
Some fans believe the introduction of a ticket ballot will give them a better chance at securing their place at Glastonbury in future.
Taking to X, one shared a screenshot of the ticket queue, writing: “Here we go again … When will #Glastonbury implement a ballot system for purchasing tickets !?!”
Another posted a picture of the queue screen on the ticket website that didn’t update fans that it’s sold out, writing: “And yet - this is still on the go! Do a Ballot in future please.”

However, the website is now making festival fans aware that the tickets have sold out.
A third said: “The question has to be….
“Why has @glastonbury not switched to a ballot or other ticketing system, when for years it’s clear the current @seetickets queuing system is not fit for purpose. #Glastonbury”
