The first wave of Glastonbury 2027 tickets has already sold out, with coach-and-ticket packages vanishing in under 30 minutes on Thursday night.
The packages went live at 6pm BST on 1 October, and by the time the dust settled, fans across social media were sharing their frustration and excitement in equal measure. As first reported by the BBC and NME, the sell-out took roughly the same amount of time as the 2025 coach sale, suggesting demand hasn’t dipped despite 2027’s record-high prices.
Glastonbury 2027 will run from Wednesday 23 June to Sunday 27 June at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset, marking the festival’s return after a fallow year in 2026 to let the land recover. Organisers estimate there are only around 200,000 spots available, while millions of fans have reportedly pre-registered.
What happened in the coach sale
This year’s sale came with a new twist: a “green bar” visual queuing system that showed fans their position as a line of bars gradually turning from black to green. According to NME, plenty of hopefuls got stuck on “two bars” for the entire 30 minutes before being told tickets had sold out.
Registration codes could also only be used once, meaning anyone trying to log in on multiple devices to improve their odds was simply given the same spot in the queue – or hit with an error page. Registration for all ticket sales closed on 25 September and won’t reopen until after October’s sales are complete.
Jessi Dimmock, from the Glasto Cast podcast, described the annual scramble as “the most stressful weekend of my year,” telling the BBC she’d be glued to her phone and laptop for Sunday’s sale with a coffee in hand.
General sale date and record price
Anyone who missed out on Thursday’s coach packages gets another shot on Sunday 4 October at 9am BST, when general admission tickets go on sale. A full weekend pass will cost £408, including a £5 booking fee – the first time Glastonbury tickets have broken the £400 barrier. That’s a £29.50 rise on 2025’s £378.50 ticket.
Dimmock admitted even die-hard fans might “wince” at the new price, but insisted the festival is still worth it for those who love it. Buyers can purchase up to six tickets per transaction after paying a deposit, and working in a group reportedly boosts your chances significantly, according to Time Out’s tips for the sale.
For those who don’t fancy joining the virtual queue at all, LADbible has highlighted that there are routes into Glastonbury that don’t involve buying a ticket, such as taking on a working role at the festival in exchange for entry – though spaces for these schemes are also notoriously competitive.
Line-up speculation and Oasis rumours
The 2027 line-up hasn’t been confirmed yet, but bookies are reportedly tipping Sam Fender, Harry Styles and Charli xcx as possible headliners. Speculation that Oasis might play was also doing the rounds after the band announced a run of 2027 shows across the UK, Ireland, Europe and the US. However, festival boss Emily Eavis has said Oasis are not due to perform at Worthy Farm, putting those rumours to rest directly on social media.
Anyone who misses out on both Thursday’s coach sale and Sunday’s general sale will get one more chance via the spring resale, which has historically sold out even faster than the main sale. For now, all eyes are on Sunday morning’s 9am rush.
