How Much? Glastonbury festival shock.

Surely I just misread that?

"Yurtel," which provided a luxury glamping experience at the Glastonbury Music Festival has gone bust.

Yurtel’s packages, which started at £10,000 a head and went as high as £16,500, were advertised as including high-end yurt accommodation, alfresco dining, hot tubs, a cocktail bar and warm private showers. Customers were to have an on-site chauffeur who would take them from the camp to the main area of the festival on a golf buggy.

SAY WHAT!!!! £10,000!!!!!

In an email sent to some customers, Yurtel, which provided what it calls a luxury festival experience, said it would be unable to “fulfil its future obligations” to them after entering insolvency this month.

Customers also learned that the tickets into the festival that they thought they had booked as part of the packages had not been bought.

Well, if you are going to rip people off, you may as well go big.

Glasto in general's considered one of THE biggest music festivals in the known Universe, it's always been expensive but not to that extent.

I've seen packages like this exist at most of the major music festivals, it's nothing new, and people do pay for it!
