The short answer: Yes, it’s worth every penny. The long answer: you don’t need to be rich. You just need to plan. Start a “Glastonbury pot” and drop £20 a week into it. After 40 weeks, you’ve got your ticket and your food money. Easy.
And here’s a secret: you don’t have to spend a fortune once you’re inside. You can bring your own booze (no glass!) and your own food. The festival has free water points everywhere. You can walk the Green Fields, watch a circus act, or just lie in a field and stare at the sky. That part is 100% free.
So, how much to get into Glastonbury? Roughly £800 all in. But really, it’s the price of a flight to New York or a few weekends out in a fancy club. Except instead of a crowd, you get a community. Instead of a DJ, you get a sunrise set by a lake. It’s a weird, wonderful, muddy bargain.
Start saving, start dreaming, and don’t forget the wellies. See you in the fields.
