2023 Ticket Price Confirmed

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Yep. Always said I’d pay whatever but I really can’t afford that at the moment sadly. Would be well over a grand for the two of us including travel and food. Hopefully we’ve all had a payrise by this time next year to make it viable again.

What were the CV prices for this year? I can't find recall.

Just found it. £125

[brettredmayne]

I was thinking 4 of us go by car from Sunderland , it’s going to be so much cheaper then paying 500 in total for coach tickets 

Are coach tickets meant to incentivise green travel 

[scatteredscreens]

can we get a poll up to see how many of us actually won't go now because of this hike, be interesting to see

£125 / £225

Expected increase to be honest and its still worth it. However, I dread to see how much they are going to rip us off for Worthy View and Stick Linch tents.... 😒

I'm less than pleased with the price increase, but at the end of the day, you've got until next April to pay the rest, that's a difference of £2.50 a week in a pot per person overall.

It's shite, not trying to defend the increase, but I wouldn't throw away your opportunity just for that.

Yes. But it's not really working is it. Not just these prices, but the fact so many are forced to get coaches by driving a fair mileage to meet the coach. Should have a re-think.

On this forum? I don’t think it will put off many people, everyone was expecting atleast £300 anyway. 
 

out in the general population it might put off a few first timers that are on the fence about paying £340 for camping and long drops

To me I live in Sunderland so still need to get to Newcastle and back which is only 12 miles but with all my gear isn’t easy 

I probably think I’m only trying in general sale now looking at them prices

yes. I know most of us won't be phased but i'm still interested to see

We need to spin up articles now saying that glasto is too expensive and isn't worth going to put people off, dig up some footage from 2016 and dress it up as this year.

Here's hoping haha 

They have put a guide on what to expect when purchasing the tickets on the site aswell.... if it stops just a few thousand extra devices it will help us all. 

[Tartan_Glasto]

I'm still willing, but may make my more money conscious partner want to think twice about it. 

 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Still good value, still going to sell out within the hour

I need every penny I’ve got for the leccy bill though, especially now it’s gonna go up again after April. Would normally have dipped into my savings if necessary to afford it but getting married next year so that’s off limits too. 

Wishing everyone on here who can still afford it the best of luck with the ticket gods, though ❤️

Sure Lenny Henry will chip in with his usual rubbish

[jparx]

Yikes. Still represents value for money for me, but that’s some increase. Could this be the first year in a long time that tickets take a bit longer to shift? I suspect not, but this is the most likely for the last decade I would think.

People just paid £90 to watch Blink-182 alone and they could probably double the shows they're doing with the demand.

Glasto will sell out in a microsecond as usual. It's just going to price a bracket of earners out, sadly.

[leath02]

Lots of people at work saying its too expensive now

Could be set for a slower sell out than usual?

Not entirely sure what you mean, but guessing you're referring to his completely reasonable view on cultural diversity among the punters.

[zahidf]

Wow.... they have to probably say whos headlining to justify such an expensive ticket price

[Flying_Hellfish]

It was always going to be over £300 this time, but that's a bigger jump than most expected.

Doubt it. It’ll sell out very quickly as usual.

Very sadly.

I'm sure most of you already know my controversial views on the current demographic, so I'll not repeat it, but this really isn't going to help.
