Forecasters have warned that music fans going to this years Glastonbury Festival should expect unsettled weather conditions.

A spokeswoman for the Met Office told Gigwise that temperatures for the event, which takes place from June 27th-29th, will be normal for the time of year.

“There is no sign at the moment of any long dry spells unfortunately,” she added.

Over the weekend, organiser Michael Eavis revealed that there were still 7000 tickets remaining for the event.

  • I know loads of people that go every year and have decided to give this year a miss were all 35-40 it has not sold out because people are upset about Eavis going on about not enough young people attending. Complete nonsense also if he wanted young people why charge over 160 a ticket!
