Tickets for the weekend will cost £408 including a £5 booking fee per ticket - an increase of £29.50 from 2025.

Headliners for the festival have yet to be announced, but rumours are already swirling, with everyone from Harry Styles and Fontaines D.C. to Taylor Swift and Stevie Wonder said to be in the mix.

Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis recently scotched rumours that Madonna would be among the headliners for next year's event.

"No, it's definitely not Madonna, I'll tell you that," she told BBC Radio 4's The Media Show.

"But we have got three [other] headliners and we're very excited about it - it's all coming together really well," she added.

Asked about the possibility of a performance from Taylor Swift, Eavis laughed and said she didn't want to discuss the line-up any more.
