last year everybody said ticket day was going to be a nightmare due to it being the 40th and the possible lineup rumours, in all it wasn't that bad, if you look at some of the threads from that day people were still able to buy tickets into the afternoon. Yes it was released that all of them sold out in a day but there were at least 2/3 ticket resale days after christmas.

If you can be organised, be ready and be patient and ticket day can be a pleasant experience. I was buzzing all day after getting mine last year for my first Glastonbury and i am already buzzing at the thought of getting tickets again.

bring it on.

Hopefully no more rumours of bands will turn up, its looking to be harder and harder. Can't believe Micheal has come out and said his trying get u2 back again, witth it like that a lot more people will probs try getting tickets than if they were just rumoured.

Slightly worried this year, more so than last year. Theres about 12ish people I've spoken to who want to go (on top of the usual five) so it's gonna be a bit of a logistical nightmare compared to the last two where we've only had a small number of us going.

Bump.

So, how much notice do they usually give before the tickets go on sale?

If I need to guarantee a Sunday off I need at least a months notice and I don't really want to book a whole month of Sundays off because it's double time and Glastonbury can be expensive (if you do it properly :D ).

My money is on the 3rd October so I've already sorted that, but asking for 4 Sundays in a row just in case, though technically allowed, may be considered as extracting the urine somewhat.

Also, I've somehow managed to register myself as a MrsZigster rather than MrZigster. Do you think a picky steward may decline my entry over something trivial like that?

How much were the kids tickets last year? Number 1 son will be 13 next year so will no longer get in free. Not that I took him but I would have done if he hadn't been taking exams at the same time.

In a totally unrelated question, how tight are they on ID for kids? If you don't have any and they think the kid is older than 12, what do they do? Send you on your way or let you pay for the kid to get in? I wouldn't like to think of someone's 13 year old son hitching 400 miles home.

Bugger....i'm climbing ben bloody nevis that weekend so not near a pc

Anyone can give an educated guess as to the URL for the ticket page? I'm going to have to 'trust' my damn hippy son to book for me so anything I can do to make it easier for the poor little thing to actually achieve something would be greatly appreciated.......x

hello! I haven't really posted for ages due to having not gone to a festival for 5 years :O but am very excited about next year (if we can get tickets) my daughter will be 26 months old and I feel a bit nervous about it!

Was it really such a nightmare getting tickets that day?
