Details for tickets for this year's Glastonbury Festival have been revealed.

Tickets will be personalised and limited to two per person to try and stamp out internet profiteering.

They will go on sale at 8pm on Thursday, April 1, and cost £112, plus booking fee and post and packaging.

Last year tickets were being offered for many times their face value on websites such as eBay within hours of them going on sale.

Festival organiser Michael Eavis says each transaction will be "vigilantly monitored" to make sure there is no repetition.

All tickets will be personalised to prevent unauthorised reselling, and there will be checks at the gates upon entrance to the festival.

In a statement, Mr Eavis said: "Last year tickets sold very quickly and as a result we had a huge problem with tickets being offered all over the place at three or four times their face value. Some of these tickets were traced back to outlets that we supplied but had no effective control over. The measures we are taking this year will result in a much fairer way to access the Festival which promises to be, as always, an incredibly joyful way to spend your mid-summer!"

As a result the tickets will only be sold by the telephone ticketline, phone number 0870 830 2004, and through the website address www.aloud.com.

Postal orders and cheques will still be accepted, but only on the phone line. Credit and debit cards will be accepted on both the ticketline and website.

Glastonbury will take place from Friday June 25 till 27. Basement Jaxx are already confirmed with rumours already surrounding appearances by The Cure, Prince, The Pixies and Oasis.
