As a group of friends, some with special needs, we have been trying to secure tickets for the Glastonbury Festival for several years. The current system has proven to be not only frustrating but also disrespectful. It favours larger groups of six, leaving smaller groups and individuals at a disadvantage. This unfair lottery system treats us like a herd of animals rather than respectful music enthusiasts.

There are countless stories similar to ours - people who have been trying year after year without success due to this flawed system. We believe that everyone should have an equal chance at experiencing the magic of Glastonbury.

The current ticketing process lacks transparency and feedback mechanisms which further exacerbates our frustration. A fairer method could be implemented such as distributing tickets through a ballot or implementing a queue system where people know their position in line.

We propose that the organisers review and reform their ticket allocation process so it is more equitable and respectful towards all festival-goers regardless of group size or personal circumstances.

We urge you to sign this petition if you believe in fair access to cultural events like Glastonbury Festival. Together, we can make our voices heard and bring about change in this unjust ticketing practice.
