how much would you sell your ticket for?

hypothetical question of course, but boredom at work is overwhelming me.

Assuming somehow you could sell your ticket and get round the photo issue etc, how much cold hard cash would it take for you to give up glasto this year?

Me, probably £2500, and I'd go on safari with the proceeds.

This year, I really wouldn't sell for any sensible amount as it'll no doubt be my last for a very long time.

If I went every year, I'd haggle.

5k, spend half on me mortgage for 3 months, take some time off and go and see a bit of the world.

And even then I'd have a heavy heart. I've only been twice and one of the regrets that will live with me is not getting round to going sooner. If I had my list of festies I've attended would be much different.

you'd have to prize my ticket out of my cold dead hand before i gave it up.

ive got too many people to meet, too many bands to see, and too many old haunts to say goodbye too

its priceless!!

You are not ripping anyone off if they are happy to pay for it.

But that is the point, you will only get for it an amount someone is happy to pay, which is nowhere near a lot of the sums mentioned on here (including my own ha ha!). Nice to dream for a minute or two though!

Are you treating this as your last too then? Ah man, it's going to be such a horrible feeling when Stevie walks off stage (hopefully in the right direction, bless him). Trying not to think about the end though. :P

In it's current vein of form GF is pretty much the best party on the planet. Also I aint getting any younger so the ticket I have for June is priceless and won't be sold.

If it gets to the stage where I'll find myself going on my own in a few years though the notion might make sense. I'd hate to go to GF by myself.

    • I don't really worry about headliners (unless there's a real possibility of a once-in-a-lifetime artist landing for it) but I'm starting to feel a bit cold on the names floating around bar Fontaines.  Harry Styles and Sam Fender, I can see the value and commercially speaking, they've earned it.  Sabrina Carpenter is obviously popular enough to do it - but after she's headlined everywhere else and done Coachella earlier this year, is it not just a bit predictable to follow what other festivals have done?
    • Bollocks to “safe” headliners, bollocks to the masses. Get interesting, get risky, challenge people.
    • The Cure would be a dream, I can definitely see them doing a second run of festivals they may have missed this year and they seem the definitive Latitude act  If they do festivals next year maybe The Strokes could be a shout? Im stunned either them or Kings of Leon haven't played yet This is a great shout for names, youre right that CMAT is taking a year out though - we're like to know more in the autumn when festivals start making announcements  The only other act I'd really love to see is Idles headline the tent 
    • Very sad for Greazy Alice
    • Nino 3.4 anomaly already in 'very strong' (>2.0C) territory.  That's very impressive for July which is still early days for El Nino development.
