Glastonbury Festival will return to Worthy Farm in Somerset, UK, from June 21 to 25, 2023. Rumors are rife over who will take to the stage this year, with names such as Harry Styles, Spice Girls and Taylor Swift all in the mix. Sir Elton John, however, has already been confirmed to headline the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday night, bringing both the festival and the UK stint of his final tour to a close with one epic show.
In addition to the music and festivities, Glastonbury has launched a VIP ticket draw in support of those affected by the Turkey-Syria earthquake. The prize draw allows music fans to win exclusive stage-side tickets at this summer’s festival, with proceeds going directly to Oxfam and included in the total for the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal. Tickets come with variety of experiences, including a once-in-a-lifetime chance to watch a band from the side of the legendary Pyramid stage on the viewing platform. There is also chance to watch a set from the Other Stage viewing platform, an opportunity for a backstage tour of West Holts, as well as watching an act from the stage pit.
The prize draw closes on March 8 at 5pm, and entrants must be 18 years of age. Multiple entries are permitted and each ticket is priced at £10. So far, it has raised over £200,000 for the cause. The DEC Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal has so far raised over £74million to support people who survived the devastating earthquake on February 6. Oxfam, together with other members of the DEC and local partner organisations, is delivering aid to people affected by the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. This includes supplies of food, clean water, and shelter.
By entering the prize draw, festival fans can win a pair of tickets for general admission weekend tickets while making a real difference to people hit hard in the earthquake in Turkey and Syria.
