Glastonbury hopefuls experienced contrasting emotions on Sunday as standard tickets to the 2024 festival sold out in rapid time, with one describing getting tickets as “one of the best feelings” while an unsuccessful applicant described it as “an hour I won’t get back”.

Organisers confirmed that standard tickets sold out in less than an hour after being made available at 9am.
