The obvious and very easy ways to fix this are (as others have pointed out) only allowing one queue entry per registration, ensuring the lead booker is buying tix for themselves & going from 6 tix to 4 max. Unless you’re a complete tech geek, the work-arounds to circumvent this dry up super quick with the above. Mind you, I’d allow resales and whatever price that fetches so be it……like other products & services in our lives we choose what we want to spend money on…..if I’d rather spend $3k on a Glasto ticket than go to Hawaii that should be a choice I can freely make, no? This current system of tech nerds & folks with big groups using spreadsheets……a weird middle ground that doesn’t feel right at all.  

Fun is relative....   The festival is inclusive and different punters have different needs.   Theres a air of arrogance from go-oers sometimes - we feel like we've earned a right or priviledge to judge...   If you've not had a wet one you dont really know "glastonbury"...   If you've never sat online for 6 hours to get tickets... you are less worthy...   2010... so hot you weren't there man...   You "have" to be onsite... its not the "real" experience either...   As someone who has  got tickets in a flash to the endurance bashing of F5... stayed on site, off site glamped close and far, survived the rain of U2, the mud of 2016, the heatwaves of 2010 and the crowding of 2023...   Live and Let Live!  

In 2009 it was my first fest... not statistically valid but it does happen....   I was dragged by my boyfriend now husband to attend it... his family had been for years.    

That's a great redemption story. Bet they were so relieved to give you the news.  Nowhere near as bad as 2023. Some dodgy stage placements, that made some sets a bit crowded, but in general, it felt better to me.  Worth noting that they were managing it much more strictly though, closing areas and routes where needed, and much more often than recent years. So getting to places early was more important.

You used to have x2 options.  The full ticket price path was always simpler....   Back then you couldnt use credit cards either....
