The Glastonbury Festival general sale took place this morning (November 17) with thousands of music fans scrambling to get their hands on tickets. Like every year, some of us were left disappointed after failing to get to the front of the virtual queue.

Although resale tickets will be released at a later date, giving fans another opportunity to get their hands on tickets, some of us may be looking ahead to other future festivals with line-ups confirmed and tickets already available.

Download Festival, Kendal Calling and All Points East have already confirmed their line-ups ahead of 2025, with tickets still available for music fans to buy. Headliners across the festivals include The Maccabees, Korn, The Prodigy and Fat Boy Slim. Below are some of the UK festivals which have shared some of their line-ups.
