eFestivals will let ticket buyers know when the re-sale will be. Congratulations to those who got tickets, and commiserations to those who didn't.

Those purchasing online will be sent a confirmation email and booking reference number. Please note this will only be sent to the first person on the booking form. Please check your spam folder if you do not receive this within 24 hours. Keep the confirmation email safe. If you have any queries about your purchase you will need the booking reference number.

There will then be no further UK or International payments taken until the booking site re-opens on the first week of April 2016 when deposit purchasers will have one week to pay the balance of £178 per ticket.

Anyone who decides not to pay their balance by 23:59 on Thursday 7th April 2016 will be refunded their deposit, minus a £15 administration fee. If the ticket was booked with a Coach Package, then an additional £10 will be retained. Those tickets will then be put forward to re-sales, which are likely to be in April or May 2016.

The deadline for ticket refunds will be Friday 6th May 2016.

Ticket registration is due to re-open sometime next week. Everyone who plans to the come the Festival must register, and that includes children aged 13, 14 and 15. Children aged 12 and under do not require tickets. Each ticket sold will feature a photograph of the person in whose name it is registered and will be non-transferable.

Tickets for Worthy View, the pre-erected camp site offering a range of British-made traditional scout tents, bell tents, tipi tents and small yurts are likely to go on sale a couple of weeks after the ticket sales. For the first time this year you will also be able to book campervan tickets and tipis in this sale.

Glastonbury Festival will take place on 2,000 acres around a farm in Pilton, Somerset over five full days from Wednesday 23rd until Sunday 27th June 2016. As ever, entry includes a free programme. Once again, the Festival will be raising more than £2 million in funds for Oxfam, Wateraid, Greenpeace and a host of local charities and causes.

There are no acts confirmed yet for 2016. Expect something like 2,000 performances at over 100 venues including music, cabaret, theatre, circus, a fantastic Kidz area, poetry, green crafts and information, site art, decor, and loads, loads more ... much more than just the music, so make sure you check it all out!
