We first went in 2009 and have been every year that it’s been on since, except 2011 when we didn’t try for tickets because we couldn't afford it due to moving house.
We are super organised - there’s 9 of us, and we are all sat there with multiple devices trying to get through - between us we have probably 25 pages attempting to get through. Every October we have got through at least once in the main sale, and when we’ve needed to we’ve managed to get the remainder in the resale too.
All that being said, I think that being able to get tickets multiple years in a row is very much 50/50 on luck and organisation, and I’m sure that at some point we won’t be as lucky as we have been.
My husband and I have always said if we don’t get our tickets in the main sale then we won’t spend the next 6 months stressing about having to try in the resale and instead would book a holiday Glasto week because we couldn’t bear to watch it on the telly and not be there 😂
