Glastonbury Pre-Registration 2007

Anyone who wants to go to this years Glastonbury Festival (and everyone should do!) needs to pre register for tickets through the http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/ website between the 1st and 28th of February.

Pre registration should hopefully stop all touting of tickets as you will have to submit a photo with your pre registration details. If you then buy a ticket your photo AND details will be printed onto the ticket.

Just make sure you dont forget to register or you will not be able to buy a ticket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this Festival and have been many times in the past- However I can't help but feel that they are going a bit far this year with the requests of Photographic Evidence of your identity!!

The idea seems so opposed to what the spirit of the Festival is supposed to be about.

What do you think?

I think the gate policy is fine. You dont really want prats spoiling the experience. As ever, I expect once through the gates, it will be as joyous as ever!

Seye, i presume you're going for it???

Most definitely dude Will you be joining us in the stone circle with the fire toys?

I think the pre reg policy is a good idea as long as they publicise it well. If some people just don't hear about it in time that would be pretty lame.

If this stops touting I'd like to see it introduced for more events. There's nothing worse than knowing you're going to struggle to get a ticket when they go on sale then seeing thousands on ebay the next day at 4 times face value.

As for it being opposed to the spirit of the event - I'm willing to make sacrifices with regards to getting a ticket and getting in because I know that once inside that monster fence the whole event will be amazing.
There really is no other festival like it.

This year, I shall be mostly playing with Fire!

Oh yes, without a shadow. Assuming I get tickets though...

i've applied to work as crew at glastonbury this year.....................dunno yet if i can afford it but fingers crossed

do you have to pay to be in the work crew? :o

sometimes they ask you to pay a refundable deposit................................it depends what your doing i suppose

I hopefully will be working at Glastonbury this year. But will have to confirm

I'm kind of tempted to go this year, but it means taking such a huge chunk from my year's time off work that I think I'm going to have to give it a miss.

It's a choice between Glastonbury or the Bristol Juggling Convention and at the moment I think that Bristol's winning.

I'm put off by this somewhat.

I'll see what I'm feeling like

Bov!? What will I do for seating without you?

It's highly unlikely that you will Rave

Ahhh apathy. The driving force behing sofa and television sales since 1980.

i think it's a bad idea, next thing will be them asking for finger prints and dna samples

Flash - nothing to do with apathy is a driving force

personnally i think its a bit of a chore but it should mean that the tickets go to people so in (theory) it should be easier to get a ticket with out all the touts buying hundreds... in theory
