If you’re reading this, it probably means you (as well as thousands of others) were left bitterly disappointed after trying for Glastonbury tickets on Sunday morning. We’re sending our deepest condolences at this difficult time. Don’t abandon all hope yet though; you could still be on Worthy Farm next summer.
The odds may not have been in your favour this time around, but there will be another opportunity to get your hands on Glasto tickets in about six months’ time (by which point the full lineup will have been unveiled). If you don’t fancy your chances then (or aren’t keen on paying £408 for the pleasure), there are a couple of other ways. So it’s time to shake off your chagrin and focus – here’s how you can still be at Glastonbury 2027.
How to get tickets for Glastonbury 2027 and volunteer
Glastonbury official ticket resale
Every spring, the festival hosts a resale consisting of tickets from people who either no longer want to attend or who haven’t paid following the initial deposit. The process is the same as October’s sale, meaning you must be registered in order to join the queue. Normally, they are limited to four tickets per buyer and each ticket must have a unique registration code. The date for the Glastonbury 2027 resale hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it tends to be in late April. Our top ticket-buying tips may come in handy.
Volunteer at Glastonbury
If you’re willing to put a shift in in order to be at Glasto, consider volunteering with Greenpeace, WaterAid or Oxfam. Every year, the charities hire volunteers for stewarding, litter picking, production, maintenance, the information office and sanitation.
It’s a lot of hard work with several 6-8 hour shifts, but you will have plenty of time to enjoy the festival too. As a volunteer you get hot showers, secure crew camping, three veggie or vegan meals a day and access to a discounted crew bar and community space.
Oxfam sign-ups are first come, first served, so make sure you stay up to date on when places open early next year and register your interest here.
Greenpeace applications will open in February 2027 – keep an eye on the website for more info.

Work at Glastonbury
The final option is to find a paid job at the festival. These normally require a lot more experience than volunteering places, whether that be working for a food vendor or for a security firm, and give you less time off. You’ll find vacancies through staffing agencies and contractors rather than through the festival itself. As a staff member, you’ll get access to private staff camping and at least one guaranteed day off to make the most of the festival.
