What happened to Yurtel, the festival Yurt company that's gone bust?
Yurtel, a luxury camping company, has ceased trading and entered liquidation, leaving Glastonbury -goers without tickets and accommodations.
Customers who booked packages, ranging from £10,000 to £16,500, have been informed that their bookings cannot be refunded and tickets were never purchased.
Glastonbury Festival has stated that Yurtel had not paid for any 2025 tickets and that the festival is not responsible for Yurtel's services or losses.
Customers are advised to seek refunds from their credit card issuer or through Yurtel's liquidation process and to find alternative accommodations.
Yurtel, which began in 2005, previously provided luxury accommodations at festivals like Latitude and Big Feastival, offering amenities such as bars, spas, and hot tubs.
