Glastonbury Festival issues important warning for fans who registered before 2020

Glastonbury hopefuls must have registered in order to pay a deposit and secure tickets for the festival each year. However, on Monday (14 August), Glastonbury Festival fan accounts warned followers who had registered before 2020 that their details were due to be deleted from the system. ‘If you registered prior to 2020 and intend to buy tickets for the 2024 Festival or in future years then you will need to review your registered details, update your photo, and CONFIRM if you wish to keep your registration no later than Saturday 30 September 2023, or otherwise submit a new registration,’ a message on the Glastonbury Festival website reads. ‘If you do not confirm that you wish to retain your pre-2020 registration details, then your registration(s) will be DELETED on Monday 02 October 2023 and you will be required to submit a new registration before you can try and book future tickets.’ The festival encourages people to update their registration photo annually to ensure it remains a good likeness. Tickets for Glastonbury are non-transferable in order to prevent touting, meaning that each person’s ticket is linked with their photo they provide in registration.
