Glastonbury organiser takes action after overcrowding complaints
Glastonbury has sold "a few thousand" fewer tickets this year to reduce overcrowding, following complaints from the previous year.
The 2025 festival is sold out but will not use its full 210,000 capacity when it takes place at Worthy Farm in Somerset later this month.
More room has been created at the Other Stage and Shangri-La nightlife area to ease congestion.
Glastonbury staff did not believe the festival suffered from overcrowding last year, despite complaints from some fans.
Ticket-holders will be encouraged to use different routes, and the festival's app planner will help predict busy areas.
