Glastonbury 2027 ticket sales go live once again with the general admission window opening at 9am BST on Sunday, October 4. One thing we do know, since the coach + ticket sales on Thursday, is that there's a new queue system to get used to.
Anyone looking buy Glastonbury 2027 tickets will have to enter their registration number before they can get in the queue on the See Tickets – one reg number one place. That means that multiple devices and tens of tabs will not work.
Getting a Glastonbury ticket is always a seriously tough gig, but the good news is that technology is here to help, if you know how to use it.
From maximising your internet connection to buddying up with friends to increase your chances, below are our top tips to successfully land yourself a ticket to Glastonbury 2027.
Should you use a VPN?
There are always rumors that there could be a certain number of tickets allotted to different countries. And, if that us the case, changing your location with a VPN could help you tap into a less competitive pool of buyers.
However, we're not convinced. What's more, there are specific mentions in the ticketing FAQ about not using a VPN, and we'd be inclined to believe it.
The last thing you want is to get to the front of the queue and then find yourself booted out of the See Tickets site because it's identified your IP address as VPN traffic.
The only time you might want to consider a VPN is if you suspect that your ISP is throttling your connection or is not routing your traffic effectively.
A good VPN would straighten this out but you do still run the risk of being identified by the ticketing site and removed, so this should only be if you're desperate.
Use one device
You have to enter you registration number to be issued a queue ID. Once the two have been linked, that's it. It doesn't matter how many tabs you open, or how many different devices you use, you'll only get the same queue number as before.
This really does make it the fairest Glastonbury ticket sales for many, many years. It doesn't look much like bots or any other clever kit is going to help.
But, if you can get your hands on more, genuine, registration numbers, then each one gives you another ticket in the lottery.
Club together with your friends
If you've got mates who are going, all of you should be having a bash at getting tickets at the same time. If one gets in, they need to buy the tickets for everyone and then get paid back the deposit fee.
One person can buy up to six Glastonbury tickets at the same time. Even if you don't have five other friends who want to go, see if you can persuade a few other people to help you.
All they need is your registration number, name and post code and then they can buy for your should they get luckier in the queue lottery than you.
Maximize your internet connection
Many people online swear that your chances can increase simply by using 4G or 5G instead of Wi-Fi. That's mainly to avoid crowded networks like the one in your workplace, or any other public Wi-Fi, giving you more capacity on a given connection to the web.
That may or may not be true but the best advice is to cover all bets and that means using both your home broadband and your mobile phone's connection too. The more devices, the better your chances and diversifying your internet connection is a smart move.
A better connection is a good idea in general. Speed might help you contact the ticket site faster than others and perhaps even get a better place in the queue, but it will certainly help you once you're in when you'll need to move fast from page to page to get your tickets into the basket and checked out before it's too late.
An Ethernet line straight to your router is going to be better than Wi-Fi. You might also want to pull the plug on anyone streaming or gaming during the sales window too.

In an effort to clamp down on ticket touting, anyone who would like to attend the festival needs to be registered on the website prior to the ticket sale. The registration period for the resale has unfortunately closed, so if you haven't already registered, you're out of luck. Unless you're under 13 years old. More on that lower down.
Music lovers who successfully filled out the registration form in time can soon buy Glastonbury 2027 tickets exclusively via the event's official website.
When is Glastonbury 2027?
As tradition, Glastonbury 2027 is set to take place in the last weekend in June, specifically from Wednesday June 23 to Sunday June 27, 2027.
Can I buy Glastonbury tickets from overseas?

As we have said, some people even suggest there's an advantage to buying from abroad.
What kind of Glastonbury 2027 tickets are there?
Besides the combo of festival ticket and coach fare, there are many types of entrances you can choose from.
You can pay an additional fee for a car park pass. That's done during the first week of April 2027 with the price set at £60 plus £3 postage.
Campervan tickets are £225 for a standard size for 2027 with larger pitches at £350. These go on sale later in autumn 2026.
You can even hire tipis to share with your family and friends – each can accommodate up to six adults. This costs £2000 to hire and must be paid in full at the time of booking.

On top of these, there is also Glastonbury pre-erected accommodation available at a later date (along with the tipis) with Sticklinch and Worth View fields providing pods, scout tents, huts, and more.
Campervans, tipis, and accommodation will be available to purchase in a separate sale in the weeks following the general ticket sale.
