Next year's Glastonbury Festival is definitely on - and details of how to get tickets have been revealed by the festival organisers.
Tickets for Glastonbury 2023 will go on sale in early November, seven months before the festival takes place at Worthy Farm in Pilton on the last weekend of June.
The tickets will be available through the website SeeTickets, and people travelling to the Somerset fields by coach will get first dibs on tickets.

General admission tickets will go on sale at 9am on Sunday, November 6, while general admission coach travel tickets will go on sale at 6pm on Thursday, November 3. These dates fall later in the year than usual, with ticket sales typically taking place in early October.
The sales are set to be another mad scramble, with passes likely to sell out in under an hour. More than 200,000 people attend the event at Worthy Farm, and around 140,000 general admission tickets will be available to purchase.
A ticket price has not been announced for Glastonbury Festival 2023. Tickets to the 2022 event cost £280 + £5 booking fee.
A statement on the Glastonbury Festival website reads: "A £50 deposit (plus coach fare if booking a ticket + coach travel) is payable when booking in November, with the balance payable in the first week of April 2023. Tickets will be exclusively sold at glastonbury.seetickets.com.
"No other site or agency will be allocated tickets. All tickets for the festival are individually personalised to the named ticket holder and are strictly non-transferable- security checks are carried out on arrival, and only the specified ticket holder will be admitted to the festival.
"As part of our ongoing efforts against ticket touting, anyone who would like to attend the festival will need to have registered in advance of the ticket sale. Registration will close at 5pm on Monday October 31, after which there will be no opportunity to submit/re-submit a registration until after the November ticket sales."
Festival-goers will be able to book up to six tickets per transaction during the ticket sales, the festival organisers added.
The music event will return to Worthy Farm in Somerset on Wednesday June 21 and run until Sunday June 25, it was previously announced. Potential attendees must register in advance of purchasing, in an ongoing bid by organisers to stop ticket touts.
The line-up has yet to be revealed for 2023 but Roxy Music have been rumoured to be filling the Sunday tea-time legends slot. This year’s edition of Glastonbury marked its return after two years of cancellations caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Sir Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar and Billie Eilish headlined as the event made a triumphant return, finally marking its 50th anniversary.
Robbie Williams also recently told the BBC he would like to fill the legends slot. He said: “Yeah, that’d be cool. Actually, I’d like to do that. I’d like another go round on that stage and feel that audience and get the chance to do it.”
