K2SO Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 If, a month before the festival, Mr Eavis came to you and offered you a ticket, knowing it is all legitimate, what is the most you would pay for a guaranteed ticket next summer?

crocodiles Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Only face value never paid over price for any ticket for anything and not starting now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose-Colored Boy Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) £500 for the festival as it is, although if every other ticket was that expensive then the clientele would almost certainly be too horrendous to spend five days around Would also happily pay up to about £350 if the deal was that I couldn’t watch anyone on the Pyramid or Other Edited July 7, 2019 by Rose-Colored Boy 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august1 Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 A normal year I think around £300. 50th anniversary next year I would probably be willing to pay £750 as a one off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Tease Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Not much more than the current price- much as I love it, much more (plus all the other expenses involved) and I’d rather spend that kind of money travelling some where abroad- you can essentially fly anywhere for £600 Edited July 7, 2019 by Mr.Tease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 If it was a week before I'd pay like £400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golden egg Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 I’d probably pay £500 now before T day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshire Chris Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Who can say ? I know one thing for sure, I wouldn’t swap a Glastonbury ticket for a six month luxury world cruise. I really mean that. I find it hard to put a monetary limit On the golden ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaf Nobby Burton Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Difficult one, personally I’d pay £1k+ but probably most of my friends wouldn’t, so I’d only pay it if they had tickets too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgatonegrofabricwardrobe Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 I'd pay face value. Never sold a ticket over the odds to anyone for anything. We're all in the same boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faymondo Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 At least £500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gherkin8r Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 I would pay £12k if there was a yurt involved or £16k if it was a bit closer to the gate. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily pay a £300 premium for pre-erected camping if it guaranteed me a ticket. Over a grand seems a bit much though, unless it allowed them to reduce capacity by 25%.

Thunderstruck Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 It's great value for money at the moment which is a credit to the festival for keeping it so low in price. I think the true value to me is about £400! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bixer Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 A month before the festival, assuming I’d failed to get one myself beforehand, it’d completely depend on the lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulshane Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 easily 1K, I'd dump it all on credit cards if it meant I could go having presumably missed out on tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a6l6e6x Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 £500 for me as I believe a lot of my friends would pay the same. Over that I'd be going alone as they would drop out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all in the same boat. Right on. The correct answer. Now if the question is how much do I value a ticket? If I had a ticket and somebody offered me a stack of cash a couple of weeks before to not go, I guess i would have my price but a week after and I can only reflect on the experience this year as priceless.

It's not the right answer though. It might be an idealistic answer but they could charge a hell of a lot more and still sell out, Demand and supply innit? If you're willing to pay £250 on Ticket day in October and you miss out I'd bet the VAST majority would pay more (to varying degrees) to get a ticket after that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a story of a premier league club. Couple of season ticket holders bumping into the CEO in the pub one evening, declaring their seats were the best in the house by a mile. Next season guess where the biggest hike was?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
