The last opportunity for fans to get hold of tickets to this year's event will be 21 April 2013. Anyone hoping to purchase a coveted ticket to the event will be required to sign up to the site with their details beforehand.

A standard Glastonbury ticket is priced at £205 with additional charges of a £5 booking fee per ticket and £6 P&P per booking.
So far, the only acts confirmed for the festival will appear in the renamed 2013 Dance Village - now called Silver Hayes after the oldest meadow on Worthy Farm.

There will be the Wow Stage, which will feature up-and-coming acts and a brand new installation named Gully; a "combining an open air stage and a pulsating street of sound systems and stalls featuring the best new DJs, MCs and live music".
The headline acts are expected to be revealed in the next couple of weeks.

The Rolling Stones will headline this summer's Glastonbury festival, according to man in the know, Kasabian's Serge Pizzorno.
The band's main man let the secret slip during a conversation with MTV News yesterday, during which he was discussing Kasabian's headlining slot at Hard Rock Calling the same June weekend.
He said: "I hope ours is the most talked about performance of the weekend, but that would be a miracle because The Rolling Stones are playing Glastonbury."
Of the band's Hard Rock Calling set, he said: "It's nice because we'll be christening the Olympic Park and we're playing with Paul Weller and Miles Kane, so it's gonna be a great Saturday night."
Other Glastonbury rumours so far have included the live comeback of the great David Bowie, Prince, Arctic Monkeys and more.

The first few acts for Glastonbury Festival 2013 have been announced.
Malian singer Rokia Traoréhas officially been revealed as the first act for this year's festival.
Organisers also confirmed that a singer from Mali will open the Pyramid Stage each day.
The idea behind promoting Malian music is intended as an act of support and solidarity to the people and musicians living in the wartorn African country.
Speaking to The Guardian, festival organiser Emily Eavis said: "We have a long tradition dating back to the '80s of African acts playing the festival. Given the situation in Mali at the moment, it felt particularly important to show some solidarity. We want to stay out of the politics, but if we can give musicians a platform we will always do that."
Billboard have reported that Searching For Sugar Man star Rodriguez will appear at Glastonbury, alongside a string of other tour appearances, including at the Royal Albert Hall.
Alongside this, Glastonbury Festival has launched its famous competition for up-and-coming bands to win a slot on the legendary Pyramid Stage.
Bands who have won the yearly Emerging Talent Competition in the past have included successful acts Scouting For Girls and The Subways.
Hopefuls can enter the competition for one week only from 9am on Thursday 17 January until 5pm on Thursday 24 January.
Entries to ETC2013 are free. To enter, acts will simply need to supply Glastonbury HQ with a link to listen to one of their songs online via YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, or any other online stream.
