Your best bet is to use both phone and internet as well as getting as many friends as you can to help you.

The ticket website will publish a telephone number and a separate URL link for foreign buyers. You just have to keep on phoning and keep on trying to get through on the website al morning for as long as it takes.

Good luck Koz

Typical ... tickets sold out, so now they can lean back and work out the line-up and not do further announcements. Respect for selling out so soon though. Even with boring and old, been there done that, headliners (rumours). On the other hand, The Boss, NY and Blur will attract an older crowd (like me). They can afford to buy tickets way up advance. I'm surely glad I got mine. I will stop thinking about it and working up the excitement until June. Don't care about the line-up anyways. With so much to do, there's always something you like or something new to get into. Main goal is to experience the famous Glastonbury vibe. Firsttimer from Holland signing out. See you in June.

I thought Glastonbury were going to send out email reminders a couple of days before. I missed the deadline as I was out of action in hospital so wouldn't have been able to have paid the deposit myself but an email reminder would have been seen by my family and the balance would have been paid. I'm really p..... off as I have paid in full for my ticket early on so as to get a camper van ticket but was leaving the balance for my wife and son tickets to be paid later. Any good people out there have any legal or illegal suggestions.

Says who? The festival has sold out - that's all tickets gone (none held back). The official website indicates that the resale for cancelled tickets is April: http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/

This is what it says "A very limited amount of cancelled tickets for this year's Festival will be sold on April 5th at 9am from www.seetickets.com/g2009, subject to availability and registration."

is it just me who is realy confused about this whole pre sale tickets business?

i got the impression that the tickets that were on sale as of after the full depositis had been paid, were just more pre sale tickets?

from the faqs on the site i assumed the main batch of tickets were on sale in april... now its saying the only tickets on sale are refunds! the front page and the faqs say something different regarding the april batch.

i am pretty annoyed about this...

there is NO way it sold out last year, maybe over the site radio station to make people feel like they were at a sold out event. but if it had sold out ME would have been able to give a lot more money to charity.

the whole sold out thing was to try and ensure that the Big G didnt lose its cool, which was never going to happen, just a lot of people (myself included) uffering mud fatigue and deciding to do something different last year.

    • Yes I'm also glad to see more experimental leftfield artists on the line up  Best line up in years 
    • Also Elefant to the Buzz.
    • I've heard him mention Deftones and Biffy as holy grail bookings in the past.   I think given Simon is back again suggests he enjoyed himself last year, not sure if they all still live in the UK so don't know if they'd match the flight thing
    • I refuse to queue for it - usually take an aeropress and some way of heating water but this year I'll be pre making a few bottles of coldbrew and having an iced coffee every morning (if we can get hold of ice, otherwise it'll be a lukewarm coffee) 
    • Himalayan salt lamps are decoration lighting that you may purchase for your house. They are made of pink Himalayan salt and are believed to offer a variety of health advantages. In reality, advocates of salt lamps believe that they can purify the air in your home, relieve allergies, improve your mood, and help you sleep.   Some people claim that Himalayan salt lamps can improve air quality, boost mood, and aid with sleep. However, there is little evidence to support these claimed health benefits.     What Are The Salt Lamps, And Why Are They Used?   Himalayan salt lamps are created by inserting a light bulb into huge chunks of pink Himalayan salt. True Himalayan salt lamps are created from salt collected from Pakistan's Khewra Salt Mine. Salt from this area is thought to be millions of years old, and while it looks quite similar to table salt, the tiny amounts of minerals it contains give it a pinkish hue. Many individuals purchase Himalayan salt lamps because they like the way they look and the peace that the pink light provides in their homes. Meanwhile, some are drawn to their potential health benefits.   How Do Pink Himalayan Salt Lamps Work?   Salt lamps are thought to have health benefits because they are "natural ionizers," which means they change the electrically charged particles of the flowing air. Ions are compounds with an uneven number of protons or electrons, which gives them a charge. They are naturally formed in the air as a result of atmospheric changes. Streams, storms, waves, natural radiation, and heat all generate air ions. They can also be generated artificially using commercially available air ionizers. It is thought that Himalayan salt lamps produce ions by attracting water particles, which evaporate as a salt solution when heated by the lamp, resulting in mainly negative ions. However, this theory is yet to be verified.   Related Topic: Is Pink Salt Better Than Normal Salt? How To Buy Pink Salt In Canada? 8 Benefits Of Pink Himalayan Salt      What Are The Health Claims, And How Do They Measure Up? They enhance the air purity   They are promoted as helpful for persons suffering from allergies, asthma, or respiratory disorders such as cystic fibrosis. There is presently no proof that using a Himalayan salt lamp can eliminate harmful bacteria and enhance indoor air quality. The argument that they are beneficial to persons with respiratory issues may be based on the ancient technique of halotherapy. According to this therapy, persons with chronic respiratory diseases are helped by spending time in saltwater caves since salt is present in the air. Some researchers have found that this approach may be beneficial to specific respiratory disorders, but further high-quality studies are still needed.   Eases Coughing As you are aware, the benefits listed in the previous section highlight the distinct characteristics of Himalayan salt lamps. When these lamps heat up, they emit negative ions that offset the positive ions in our surroundings, resulting in cleaner air quality. This process increases cilial activity in our airways, which aids in the removal substances from the lungs. In essence, Himalayan salt lamps act as natural air filters, promoting general health.   In a nutshell, Himalayan pink salt lamps not only remove impurities from the air but also assist your body filter air more efficiently, making sure any foreign particles you inhale do not enter your lungs.   They can help you sleep   There have been no studies looking into the impact of Himalayan salt lamps on sleep. However, a 2013 study examining the effects of air ionization on relaxation and sleep found no evidence of a positive effect. Thus, even if salt lamps have an effect on the air environment, it is unknown whether this will change sleep patterns. If you replace strong electric lights with a Himalayan salt lamp, the dark light could help encourage weakness near the end of the day. This is because being exposed to bright light before bedtime can cause the sleep hormone melatonin to be produced later.   SUMMARY: Himalayan salt lamps are said to improve air quality, elevate mood, and aid in sleep. However, there is right now insufficient evidence to support these statements.     Do Pink Salt Lamps Provide Any Benefits?   Although some of its health claims have not been verified by science, Himalayan salt lamps may provide additional benefits. This includes: They are attractive: If you like how they look, they could be a good addition to your home. They help to create a soothing atmosphere that allows you to unwind. They may help minimize light in the evening: If you have trouble sleeping, utilizing dim lights in the evening may help you fall asleep more quickly.     Further Ways to Purify Your Home Air   Himalayan pink salt lamps are not the only technique to improve your home's air quality. Pair them with air purifying houseplants or any of these other easy but incredible ways to naturally filter the air in your home, helping you and your family to breathe the healthiest, cleanest air imaginable!     Read More...
