Glastonbury Festival is definitely the best music festival of all time celebrating it's 40th anniversary this year. I personally have only been able to purchase Glastonbury tickets once before (this being due to previous cash flow issues) but this year I was extremely dedicated and was up at 7:30am last Sunday falling asleep by my computer in an attempt to ensure I would be able to register for my oh so precious Glastonbury ticket.
The ticket sales for Glastonbury 2010 reached headline news on Monday as they completely sold out within 24hours. This was in record breaking time in comparison with recent years such as 2009's Glastonbury tickets taking several weeks to sell out and 2008's Glastonbury tickets not selling out until the day of the actual festival.
The fact that people were so eager to purchase their Glastonbury ticket (which this year costs £185 and is a £10 increase on last years ticket price) shows the hype and expectation that Glastonbury has been able to create for itself over the past 40 years because the line up is yet to be announced and people were still purchasing Glastonbury tickets even though the festival itself is still 9 months away.
I personally purchased my tickets so early because I wanted to ensure my place at Glastonbury festival as I previously found the experience amazing and constantly enjoyable! Also it is clear to see that this years swift Glastonbury ticket sales have been helped by rumors that the festivals 40th anniversary will draw in some spectacular headliners such as Beyonce Knowles, Radio Head and U2 and is definitely guaranteed to be a huge success even with the mud!
If you are one of the unfortunate many who were not able to purchase their Glastonbury ticket do not fear as another batch are said to be going on sale within the next couple of weeks.
