Good news if you weren't able to get Glastonbury tickets - the BBC has announced details of when and where you can watch festival coverage on TV this year. 

The festival, which is being headlined by Adele, Muse and Coldplay this year, always sells out in a matter of hours - which leaves many fans seeking other ways to enjoy the festival.

This year, the BBC has promised “over 25 hours” of coverage, with performances aired across BBC1, BBC2, BBC Three and BBC Four. The footage will include the headliner’s sets in full, as well as the Sunday afternoon legends slot from Jeff Lynne’s ELO.

Among this year’s presenters are Chris Evans, Lauren Laverne, Mark Radcliffe, Gemma Cairney, Huw Stephens and Annie Mac. Other presenters are yet to be confirmed.

There’ll also be exclusive full sets on the BBC Music app, while BBC Four will show sets from the likes of Foals, PJ Harvey and New Order.

Glastonbury takes place at Worthy Farm in Somerset from 22-26 June 2016.
