GLASTONBURY Festival has announced the ticket sale for the 2024 festival will be postponed by two weeks due to hopeful attendants having issues with registering.

Several individuals discovered they weren't registered to be eligible for a ticket to next year's festival, after the registration deadline had already passed.

A spokesperson for Glastonbury Festival said: "Following this year's festival, we alerted everyone with a registration which pre-dated 2020 of a scheduled review of the details held by See Tickets in the Glastonbury Festival registration database.

"This was in order to ensure that the details we hold are current and that we do not store individuals' information for any longer than is necessary.

"These registrants were asked to take action to confirm their registration if they wished to keep it. 

"Unfortunately, it has come to light that some individuals hoping to buy tickets for 2024 have discovered after Monday's registration deadline that they are no longer registered, despite believing they were. 

"Out of fairness to those individuals, we will be re-opening the window for registration at 12 noon on Monday, November 6. It will remain open until 5pm on Monday, November 13."

The new dates for Glastonbury ticket sale are as follows:

  •  TICKETS PLUS COACH TRAVEL ON SALE AT 6PM GMT, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16
  • GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETS ON SALE AT 9AM GMT, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 19

Anyone hoping to buy a ticket to Glastonbury 2024 can check their existing registration at https://glas.to/lookup.

Alternatively, new registrations can be submitted at https://glastonburyregistration.co.uk/, from 12 noon on Monday.

The spokesperson finalised: "We apologise for the late change to the ticket sale dates, but we want to ensure that everyone who would like to buy a ticket for next year's festival is able to confirm their registration ahead of the sale."

Glastonbury Festival 2024 will be held between Wednesday, June 24 and Sunday, June 30.

Artists tipped to headline include Bruce Springsteen, Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Madonna.
