Glastonbury sells out in two hours
But has pre-registration kept out the touts?
Tickets for the Glastonbury Festival have sold out in under two hours.
The now-annual scramble for tickets kicked off at 9am this morning, with nearly 400,000 pre-registrants competing for 137,500 tickets available to the public. By 10.55, all regular tickets were sold out.
All applicants were this year required to pre-register in a bid to prevent touting.
While regular tickets are all gone, deluxe festival-goers can still buy teepee tickets for £250.
Arctic Monkeys, The Killers and The Who lead the line-up for the festival so far, which takes place between June 22-24.
