One fan posted an image of the bar menu on X, former Twitter, with the post gaining mixed reactions.
Some people even dubbed the prices "absolutely disgusting" while others found them reasonable.
A double shot of a spirit with a mixer will set punters back a whopping £13.
Pints of draught cider and beer will cost festivalgoers from £6.95 to £7.20.
Last year, visitors had to fork out £6.75 for the same drinks.

Another person said: "Still cheaper than some pubs I've been to."
A third one added: "Much better than other festivals and gigs this year!"

It's looking like a big week for 'Scotland's Beyonce', as Bathgate-born singer Lewis Capaldi seems set to make a live comeback - and release a new single. It's been widely reported that Capaldi, who has only played a couple of tiny gigs since his Glastonbury set in 2023, will perform a surprise set on the festival's Pyramid Stage tomorrow (Friday, June 27). Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Last time he was at Worthy Farm he famously needed the crowd's help to finish a song due to his much-publicised health issues, which led to him taking a career break. And, as if a live comeback wasn't enough for his huge fanbase, it's also rumoured that he'll be releasing a single at the same time - his first new material since Strangers and A Cure For Minds Unwell more than a year ago. Here's everything you need to know. When is Lewis Capaldi playing Glastonbury? If the rumours are true, Lewis Capaldi is playing the Pyramid Stage before Alanis Morissette on Friday, June 27, at 4.55pm. He'll be fourth on the bill behind Morissette, fellow Scots Biffy Clyro and headliners The 1975. How long will Lewis Capaldi play for? The schedule has him playing from 4.55-5.30pm - so he'll be performing a 35 minute set. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad What will Lewis Capaldi play at Glastonbury? It's expected that Capaldi will play his new single, along with his biggest hits including Someone You Loved. Can I watch Lewis Capaldi play Glastonbury on television? The BBC are streaming live coverage of the Pyramid Stage on Friday, so just pop over to the iPlayer at 4.55pm and you'll be able to watch Lewis live (if the rumours are true). What happened last time Lewis Capaldi played Glastonbury? After performing his song Bruises at Glastonbury two years ago, Capaldi admitted he was having voice issues, telling the crowd: 'I'm going to be honest everybody but I'm starting to lose my voice up here, but we're going to keep going and we're going to go until the end.I just need you all to sing with me as loud as you can if that's OK?' He continued to apologise to the crowd, and the Eavis family who organise Glastonbury, for his voice starting to go – but the ocean of fans replied by cheering him on and chanting 'oh, Lewis Capaldi'. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Before his final song, Capaldi told the crowd: 'I recently took three weeks off just because I've been non-stop the past year and I wanted to take a wee break from my head for my mental health. 'I wanted to come back and do Glastonbury because it's obviously so incredible, so I just want to thank you all for coming out. I was scared, but you've really made me feel at ease so thank you very much for that.' Capaldi added: 'I feel like I'll be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks so you probably won't see much of me for the rest of the year, maybe even. But when I do come back, when I do see you, I hope you're all still up for watching.' He closed his set with his Grammy-nominated track Someone You Loved, telling the crowd 'I love you all' and became emotional as they chanted back the lyrics to him when he was struggling to sing some of the notes. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad In a statement after the performance he said: 'First of all, thank you to Glastonbury for having me, for singing along when I needed it and for all the amazing messages afterwards. It really does mean the world. 'The fact that this probably won't come as a surprise doesn't make it any easier to write, but I'm very sorry to let you know I'm going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future. 'I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I'd hoped 3 weeks away would sort me out. But the truth is I'm still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette's and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come. 'I know I'm incredibly fortunate to be able to take some time out when others can't and I'd like to thank my amazing family, friends, team, medical professionals and all of you who've been so supportive every step of the way through good times and even more so during the past year when I've needed it more than ever.

Sir Rod Stewart designs leopard print Glastonbury toilet in shape of giant boombox

The veteran rockstar will perform on the Pyramid Stage on Sunday evening when he plays the tea-time legends slot. A quirky boombox-shaped toilet, boasting the design touch of Sir Rod Stewart, has been revealed at Glastonbury Festival. In collaboration with WaterAid, the Boombox Bog features a loo nestled behind the façade of an oversized blue boombox adorned with leopard print, nodding to Sir Rod's signature fashion style. ‌ The famed rocker, aged 80, is set to take the stage in front of legions of festival-goers on Sunday as he fills the esteemed tea-time legends slot on the Pyramid Stage, which the lavatory sits near. ‌ The 'Maggie May' crooner stated: "I've spent my life singing to packed arenas and festival crowds, but nothing hits a high note quite like clean water and a decent loo. They might not be sexy, but they're life-changing. "That's why I've teamed up with WaterAid to bring our funky Boombox Bog to Glastonbury Festival and shine a light on the importance of these everyday essentials that millions still live without. "Together, we're creating change that's gonna last forever." Attendees will even have the chance to listen to some of Sir Rod's classic tracks such as Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? and Sailing from within the Boombox Bog, accompanied by special water-themed messages recorded by the artist himself. WaterAid's executive director of communications and fundraising, Jennie York, expressed gratitude: "We're so grateful to Rod for helping share the amazing power of clean water and a decent toilet with the funkiest loo at Glastonbury Festival. ‌ "It's a fun and engaging way to celebrate the wonderful things that can happen if everyone has these basic needs met. "Our fantastic volunteers are onsite keeping the water flowing and the toilets gleaming, so Festival-goers can focus on the magic that makes Glastonbury unforgettable. "But when the music stops, we don't. We're bringing people together to help build a world where everyone has the water they need to stay healthy, learn and thrive. Change really does start with water." ‌ Since 1994, non-profit organisation WaterAid has been an acclaimed charity partner of Glastonbury, not only attending to water and sanitation services on site but also shining a spotlight on its international endeavours. Throngs of festival enthusiasts are streaming into Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset, which flung open its gates on Wednesday for a spellbinding five-day fiesta of music and performing arts. ‌ This year's Glastonbury is set to feature headline acts such as British rock/pop ensemble The 1975, the legendary Neil Young and his group the Chrome Hearts, alongside American pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo. Sir Rod is expected to grace the stage fresh from having to delay several US concerts scheduled this month as he recuperated from the flu. The seasoned performer has hinted at surprise appearances during his performance, including the possibility of reuniting with Ronnie Wood, his erstwhile Faces bandmate.
