For those who missed out on securing a ticket to Glastonbury Festival 2025 during the initial sale, a limited resale will take place this week. This provides a final opportunity for fans to attend one of the UK's most iconic music festivals.

What is the Glastonbury resale?

The upcoming resale features a small number of tickets that were initially purchased but not paid for in full before the payment deadline. These now become available to the public once again in two separate phases.


According to the festival organisers, the quantity of tickets available in resale is a "very limited amount," although exact figures have not been disclosed.

Key resale dates

The ticket resale will take place on two separate days:

  • Thursday 25 April – Coach travel packages, which include festival entry, go on sale at 18:00 BST.
  • Sunday 27 April – General admission tickets will be released from 09:00 BST.
  • Sunday 27 April from 11:00 BST – Additional options, including accommodation choices, such as Worthy View, Sticklinch, and campervan passes, will become available.

These options provide festivalgoers with a chance to customise their stay, though availability is expected to be highly competitive.

Do you need to register?

Yes. In order to purchase any Glastonbury ticket, whether during the initial sale or the resale, all buyers must be registered with the festival. This is a long-standing requirement aimed at preventing ticket touting.

  • Those who have previously registered can use their existing registration number and postcode to book tickets.
  • Registration closed on Tuesday 23 April and will not reopen before the resale. New registrations are therefore no longer possible ahead of this ticket release.

Can you use the deposit scheme?

No. The deposit scheme for 2025 tickets is now closed, meaning anyone buying tickets in the resale must pay in full at the time of purchase. There is no option to secure a place with a deposit during this round.

How many tickets can you buy?

The number of tickets available per customer depends on the resale day:

  • For the coach travel ticket sale on Thursday, buyers can purchase up to two tickets per transaction.
  • For the general admission resale on Sunday, buyers can buy up to four tickets per transaction.

If you're planning to buy for a group, make sure to have all participants' registration details and postcodes ready. This ensures a smooth and efficient booking process.

Tips

Given the limited number of tickets available, competition is expected to be fierce. Here are a few helpful tips:

  • Be online and ready ahead of the announced time.
  • Ensure all your registration details are accurate and accessible.
  • Prepare payment information in advance to avoid delays during checkout.

The Glastonbury 2025 resale offers a final window for fans to attend what promises to be another memorable edition of the legendary festival. Good luck to those attempting to secure tickets.

Artists respond to a world shaped by division at Summer Exhibition

THE theme of the Royal Academy’s Summer Exhibition 2025 is “dialogues”, prompting the question: can art help bring together the people of India and Pakistan? Or, indeed, Israel and Iran – or Israel and Palestine?

It so happens that the coordinator of this year’s Summer Exhibition is the internationally celebrated artist and Royal Academician Farshid Moussavi, who is of Iranian origin.

From a McDonald's to a nightclub: The strange afterlife of Michael Jackson’s giant statues

Key points

  • Ten giant Michael Jackson statues were built in 1995 to promote his HIStory album
  • The 32ft figures appeared around the world and followed him on tour
  • Some remain visible in places like Switzerland, Italy, and South Africa
  • Others have been removed or stored due to controversy after Jackson’s death and allegations
  • Owners now face challenges selling, relocating or preserving the monuments

A colossal promotion campaign

In June 1995, Londoners witnessed an unusual spectacle: a 32ft statue of Michael Jackson being floated down the River Thames. It was part of a global promotional campaign for Jackson's HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I album. A total of ten fibreglass statues were made, all modelled on the album cover image, and they accompanied the singer on his worldwide tour.

The statues were the product of a transatlantic effort. American sculptor Diana Walczak worked closely with Jackson to design a clay prototype. In the UK, artist Stephen Pyle oversaw the construction of the fibreglass versions, assisted by sculptor Derek Howarth and a team based at Elstree Studios. Built in just four months, the statues bore some differences from the original prototype due to limited access.

For the first time, London’s Mall Galleries will host a major exhibition dedicated entirely to Pichvai paintings, an intricate devotional textile tradition from Rajasthan. Titled Feast, Melody and Adornment (2–6 July 2025), the show brings over 350 artworks to a British audience, highlighting the evolution and global revival of this 400-year-old art form.
