Music fans are facing up to total travel chaos as the crippling rail strikes across the UK threaten to wreck Glastonbury Festival for thousands.
More than half of the trains due to serve the event, which gets underway on Wednesday have already been cancelled.
Tens of thousands of revellers will be forced to find alternative routes to the site in Pilton, Somerset or heartbreakingly cancel their trip altogether.
There are just eight services running from London to Castle Cary - the station closest to the site - on Thursday, suggesting the trains will be completely packed.
A usually busy line has been reduced to just a handful of services on the key travel days, meaning roads are sure to be gridlocked as ticket holders try to find other ways to get to the iconic festival.
Over 40,000 workers are to strike, bringing misery to millions across Britain.
Rail staff are unhappy about pay, conditions and proposed job losses.
Passengers have been urged not to travel by train this week with hopes of avoiding a strike now all-but over.
It's the largest walk out for years and already a number of lines have been confirmed as being closed.
Last-minute talks between unions and rail bosses are said to be continuing, but Conservative MP Simon Clarke accepts industrial action was likely.
Most Glastonbury fans are refusing to be put off and have vowed to get there however possible.
Over 80 sensational music acts will perform at the iconic music event that will take place from Wednesday until Sunday.
This summer's must-see music event will see Billie EIlish, Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar headline.
After being cancelled due to Covid-19 in both 2020 and 2021, the iconic festival will make its long-awaited return from June 22-26.
Other huge names playing include Primal Scream, Diana Ross and Charlie XCX.
The majority of the larger artists had already been announced earlier this year, but The Libertines tops the list of new artists added last week.
The rock band, headed up by Pete Doherty, last played the Pyramid Stage in 2015 and now they're back for more.
But the political backdrop is making it tough for thousands to attend.
Treasury minister today Mr Clarke told BBC Breakfast there was "no point giving false hope" the strikes could be avoided, adding it is "important to be realistic" about the difficulty of the negotiations.
"We absolutely don't want them to go ahead, I recognise this is going to cause misery for millions of people and I am profoundly sorry about that," he added.
