Thousands of Glastonbury revellers have excitedly headed to Worthy Farm for a feast of music, with some camping in queues overnight. But after hauling in their four-wheeled trollies packed full of their worldly goods, they will be hit with the reality of how much it is going to set them back just to be kept fed and watered over the next five days. They have already shelled out £355, plus a £5 booking fee, for a ticket - a £20 increase on last year's price - and, with most forums estimating a minimum daily budget of £20 on food alone, will fork at least another £100 on grub. Earlier this week a snapshot of the ' London ' drinks prices for this year's festival was branded as 'criminal' after fans discovered they would have to shell out £6.75 for a pint of beer. The cost of keeping their stomachs full while guzzling back on the alcohol will make a dent in their pockets, too.
