These dates are confirmed by the festival itself, which is rare this far out and is why this page exists. What is NOT yet known is how tickets will be sold. The festival says that information arrives in autumn 2026.
Glastonbury does something almost no festival of its size will do. Every few years it stops for a whole year, on purpose, and lets the ground recover.
2026 is one of those years. There is no festival. That is not a cancellation, a funding problem or a rumour, it is the plan, and it has been part of Glastonbury since the 1980s.
The next one is Wednesday 23 June to Sunday 27 June 2027, at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset. The festival says so on its own information page, which is unusually early certainty and the reason this page can exist at all while most 2027 pages on the internet are guesses.
The part that is genuinely unknown is tickets. Glastonbury sells out in minutes and the mechanics change, so the only useful answer today is the festival's own: information on booking tickets and accommodation arrives in autumn 2026. When it does, this page changes and the change carries its date.

Questions people actually ask
Is there a Glastonbury in 2026?
No. The festival is taking a fallow year in 2026, which is a planned year off written into how Glastonbury works, roughly every five years, to give the farm, the village and the team a rest.

No. The festival says information on how to book tickets and accommodation for 2027 will be released in autumn 2026. Anything on sale before that has not come from them.

What is a fallow year?
A deliberate break, not a cancellation. The land is farmland the rest of the year and the rest is the point, for the fields and for the people who live next to them. It has been part of the festival since the 1980s.
