Glastonbury 2023 opens to festival-goers
Glastonbury Festival-goers have been left gobsmacked by this year’s food prices after being charged £8 for a small portion of chips as punters also complained about “London pub” beer prices.
The festival has a wide range of food vendors on site including plenty of options for vegans as well as staple items like fish and chips.
According to Glastonbury’s website, food and drink costs at the festival are the equivalent of London prices.
But revellers at the annual event have been left stunned as food stalls are charging £15 for a chicken burger and fries – or £18 for a double.
The pricey food options have not gone down well with some people after fans paid more than £300 for tickets.

According to reports, punters are also being charged £15 for a steak salad and various pizzas.
A cheaper option may be a sweet treat where six doughnuts are selling for just £5.
Alcoholic beverages will also cost punters with pints starting from £6.50, a cocktail jug at £25.00, an energy drink costs around £4.50 and soft drink starting at £3.
Twitter users have responded in outrage over the soaring prices of drinks, as one person wrote: “SIX POUNDS EIGHTY PENCE” and another commented: “Just shy of 7 quid for a San Miguel?!”
Another user commented: “Robbing b*******… can’t wait.”
Some admitted they were glad they came prepared as a fourth person exclaimed: “Glad I packed plenty of rum. Maybe backed up by the odd cheeky pint from the cider bus.”
Others appeared content with the prices, one said: “£6 for a cider, not too shabby” while another agreed: “Actually not that bad.”
A third agreed: “Considering it was £8+ at the cricket at the weekend, I don’t fall out with this.”
