Organisers of Glastonbury have announced that the 2009 festival is now sold out.
A limited number of tickets were made available yesterday (2nd February) after the deadline, for those who had paid a £50 deposit, to pay the full amount for tickets passed on Sunday (1st February).
Back in October 2008, organisers of the festival launched a deposit scheme which saw the majority of the tickets for this year's weekender snapped up.
All tickets for the 2009 festival have now been sold. Only cancelled tickets will now be available to buy, with a limited amount set to go on sale on Sunday 5th of April.
In a statement Emily Eavis said: "We're chuffed to bits that we've managed to sell so many tickets so far ahead, especially when you look at the weather outside."
The organiser added: "Thanks to everyone for keeping the faith; it's certainly shaping up to be another vintage year for Glastonbury Festival, with a brilliant line up to be unveiled in June."
The line up is yet to be confirmed, however, it is heavily rumoured that Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Blur and The Specials will play headline slots.
Other acts strongly rumoured to be appearing include The Ting Tings, Franz Ferdinand and Lily Allen.
The festival will take place 26th–28th June.
