Glastonbury 2027 resale: date, rules and how to get ready
What's known about the Glastonbury 2027 resale: when it's likely to be, the registration deadline, tickets per booking, paying in full and getting ready.
If you missed out in October, it isn't necessarily over. Tickets that aren't paid for in the April balance window, and tickets that are returned, are sold again in the official spring resale. It's smaller and faster than the main sale, and it works a little differently, so it's worth preparing for on its own terms. We update this page as soon as the festival announces anything new.

Where resale tickets come from
After the April balance payment window closes, any ticket whose balance wasn't paid is cancelled. Those tickets, plus tickets that were cancelled or returned since the main sale, go back on sale. The festival doesn't say in advance how many there will be, and demand is always far higher than supply.
When it happens
Usually in late April, a couple of weeks after the balance window. In recent years there have been two sessions: one for ticket and coach packages, and one for general admission. In 2025 they were:
| Session | 2025 date and time |
|---|---|
| Ticket and coach packages | Thursday 24 April, 6pm |
| General admission | Sunday 27 April, 9am |
| Cancelled accommodation | Sunday 27 April, 11am |
| Registration deadline | Wednesday 23 April, 5pm (the festival advised registering by the 18th) |
The 2027 resale date hasn't been announced yet. See Glastonbury 2027 key dates.
How it differs from the main sale
| Main sale | Resale (2025) | |
|---|---|---|
| Tickets per booking | Up to 6 | Up to 4 for general admission, up to 2 for coach packages |
| Payment | Deposit, balance in April | Full price at booking |
| Registration | Required for everyone | Required for everyone |
| Sold out in | About 42 minutes for general admission in 2027 | About 22 minutes for general admission in 2024 |
The resale queue
The 2025 resale queue worked like the main sale's: random places for everyone waiting when it opened, and 10 minutes at the front to enter everyone's details. How the queue works now is in how the queue works. The one resale rule to know: registration numbers could be locked for up to 10 minutes after errors, duplicate attempts or a timeout, so don't retry a name that won't come up. See the checkout guide.
Getting your group ready
- Check everyone's registration is still valid and the photo still looks like them. The months between the main sale and the resale are a good time to update it, before registration closes again.
- Plan in fours, not sixes. Decide in advance who books whom, because a group of six needs two bookings.
- Have the full price ready for each person you might book for. Four tickets at the 2027 price is over £1,600, so check your card limit. See paying for Glastonbury tickets.
- Only book people who still need tickets. In a mixed group, some people already have tickets from the main sale. Anyone with a registration can queue, but only those without tickets need booking.
- Keep your group's page. If you used Glasto Quick Copy for the main sale, groups are cleared on a seasonal schedule, so check yours is still saved or set it up again before the resale.
For paying in full on one card, see the checkout guide.
Coach packages in the resale
Ticket and coach packages come back in their own resale session, usually a few days before general admission, limited to two per booking. The coach rules still apply: you must travel on your booked coach and can't switch to general admission. See coach tickets.
Avoid unofficial sellers
Glastonbury tickets carry the holder's photo and are strictly non-transferable. The official resale through See Tickets is the only legitimate way to get a returned ticket. Anyone selling tickets elsewhere is either mistaken or a scam. See how to spot Glastonbury ticket scams.
