Where to buy tickets for Download Festival now

If you’re keen to get your hands on tickets, then you need to move fast, and your first point of call should be Ticketmaster. If you’re after the full experience, a five-night pass starts from £345 and £172.50 for kids. For those of you hoping to get a proper night’s kip, there’s the option to choose ‘quiet’ camping.

You can also book ‘eco’ camping for the same prices. Essentially, this is a dedicated campsite area designed for fans who want to prioritise sustainability during their stay, from recycling waste to cutting down on single-waste plastic. For those of you who don’t want to camp (I don’t blame you), access to the festival for the entire weekend will cost £290 per person.

If you don’t have any luck on Ticketmaster, don’t panic. You can also head over to See Tickets now to buy tickets. As for resale, you want to check out Viagogo and Stubhub, where tickets start from £360.
