Hospitality Tickets without the crazy markup and accommodation?

[failed]

Hi all!
 
First Glastonbury since 2014 I haven't been able to grab tickets, which is especially gutting as this was going to be our last one for a good number of years (kids :sob:). Because of this we'd be quite willing to pay a bit more to guarantee going. I had some friends who used to get hospitality tickets a few years ago for ~£500. They had an in from an artist and they offer us some once but we were lucky enough to get them in the main sale but always thought it'd be reasonably easy to source them if I wasn't successful. 
 
Unfortunately haven't spoken to that friend in years, but I thought you'd always need an in to get them, but after stewarding a couple of years ago, so many people came in with no links to artists, weird stuff like mortgage advisors etc. so there must be a way for companies to source them to hand out. Just wondering if anyone knew of a way to get them! Aware of the 'VIP' companies selling them for £5k, which is crazy, but we'd be more than happy to pay a reasonable but high price for them! Just need a damn way... I'm not too proud to approach companies
 
DMs always open!
