This isn’t the first time BBC give away Glastonbury tickets. Prior to Glastonbury’s forced cancellation due to the worldwide pandemic – back in early 2020, all BBC Radio 1 listeners had to do to be in with a chance of winning tickets to that year’s Festival was work out a three-letter word from three clues given live on air.
Radio 1 had also previously given away tickets to the Worthy Farm event as part of a treasure hunt competition which took place in October 2019.
A constantly updated list of all the current competitions to enter for the chance of winning tickets to Glastonbury 2023 can be found here.
Glastonbury 2023 will take place at its natural home in Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset, from Wednesday the 21st to Sunday the 25th of June.
With both the main ticket sales, as well as the local & Sunday ticket sale now out of the way, the next option to bag tickets to Glastonbury 2023 will be when the resale of any unpaid and/or cancelled tickets takes place in the Spring of 2023 (around April time).
As part of Glastonbury’s ongoing efforts against ticket touting, anyone who would like to attend this year’s Festival will need to have registered in advance.
As in previous years, registration remains free of charge and only takes a few minutes at glastonburyregistration.co.uk.
Those who have already registered in the past can also check their existing registration here.
In addition to the upcoming ticket resales, some other opportunities for getting to Glastonbury include working at the Festival, volunteering and entering competitions – once these options make themselves available.

Don’t be fooled
Glastonbury Festival would very much like fans to be aware that there are people out there who will try and sell fake Glastonbury tickets to unsuspecting, willing and innocent potential purchasers.
Although Glasto-veterans who have been going to the Festival for quite some time may recognise these scams for what they are, newcomers might not.
Therefore, please remember that tickets are only sold on one site, which is: glastonbury.seetickets.com.
