Glastonbury fans call for ticket ballot after another struggle before selling out

Glastonbury fans have called for tickets to be sold differently after many struggled to obtain them before they sold out.Tickets for the 2024 festival, which will take place from June 26-30, sold out in under an hour in the general sale yesterday (November 19). Meanwhile, coach and ticket packages went on sale instead at 6pm GMT on Thursday (November 16) and sold out in 25 minutes.It comes after ticket sales were initially pushed back after organisers confirmed on social media that both sales had been delayed by two weeks following issues with some voter registrations. Glastonbury have promised that, once again, there will be a re-sale of any cancelled or returned tickets in spring 2024.Now, following frustration among many who struggled to get tickets, some fans have suggested tickets should be sold via a ballot system for subsequent festivals to make things fairer.Ballot systems have been used for selling tickets to Wimbledon for years and are gradually becoming more common for high-demand music events, such as Taylor Swift‘s ‘Eras’ tour and Green Day‘s ill-fated intimate show at the Electric Ballroom which was cancelled just minutes before doors.“Why not a random ballot for all registrees and an email notification to say the outcome then a one day window to pay? Just sayin…” one X/Twitter user suggested.“Just.
