Organisers of the Glastonbury festival have announced anyone not going who holds a ticket has until 23:59 on Friday (May 7th) to request a refund.

This could mean a small number of tickets from those who have had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances will be up for grabs, with a limited resale then in prospect.

According to organisers this is not certain, but if it does happen it will only be possible for those who are registered on the Glastonbury site by the end of Friday to apply for them.

Those who do manage to get their hands on a ticket may then want to get some camping furniture to ensure a more comfortable stay in tents over the festival period, which lasts from June 24th to 26th.

Glastonbury's highlights this year will include the star acts on the Pyramid Stage such as U2, Beyonce and Coldplay, while other stages feature the likes of the Kaiser Chiefs and Primal Scream
