 Wristbands


Without giving away the full passout system, Glastonbury Festival wishes it to be known that wristbanding of all the public who enter the site via the turnstiles will be reintroduced this Festival. This is an idea successfully used at many European festivals.

The wristbands themselves will not be used as passouts, only as part of the system, so there will be no purpose in transferring the wristbands or attempting to sell or buy them, for by themselves they would be useless. Indeed, the wristbands are pri nted with the words 'Not Valid For Entry - Must be worn at all times' which makes this clear. Once inside the security fence the authorities are able to make a visual check on the legitimacy of each person on site.

This new system is expected to further reduce the likelihood of people attempting to come to the Festival without tickets, and is supported by both the Police and Mendip District Council as a second layer of security.
