Glastonbury organisers have announced that tickets for next year’s festival will go on sale in October.

Coach packages will then go on sale the following Thursday 6 October at 6pm, with the general admission tickets going on sale on Sunday 9 October.

The festival also confirms that after next year’s festival, they’ll be taking a year out “in order to give the farm, the village and the Festival team the traditional year off”.

Of course, we’re still a long way off finding out who’ll be taking to the stage at Worthy Farm next June, following Coldplay, Muse and Adele’s headlining slots this summer, but that hasn’t stopped people from speculating about who’ll be given the honour this time around.

One popular rumour so far has named Ed Sheeran as a potential headliner for 2017, with The Sun claiming negotiations are now taking place to get him to sign on the dotted line.

Meanwhile, bookies are already taking bets on who it will be, with legendary rock band Guns N’ Roses the current favourites to top the bill in 2017.

Kasabian, Radiohead and Stone Roses are also hotly tipped, while Foo Fighters could also return to the stage after having to pull out of their headline slot in 2015.

Next year’s Glastonbury festival will take place between 21 and 25 June 2017. Click here for all the ticket information you need.
