The co-organiser of Glastonbury Festival has spoken out following a backlash over the rise in ticket prices for next year's event. Emily Eavis said the team tried 'very hard' to 'minimise' the increase in price but were unable to due 'enormous rises in the cost of running the vast show.'
In her statement posted on Twitter she said: "I wanted to post about the 2023 Glastonbury ticket price which was announced today. We have tried very hard to minimise the increase in price on the ticket but we’re facing enormous rises in the costs of running this vast show, while still recovering from the huge financial impact of two years without a festival because of COVID.”
