Music lovers hoping for a ticket to this year's Glastonbury Festival will have to register their interest next month, organiser Michael Eavis has confirmed.
As part of the battle against touts, anyone wanting a ticket to the world's biggest music and performing arts festival must register by the end of February.
Eavis said: "I want to keep up the momentum we gathered last year by stopping ticket touting altogether.
"Thank you for being so supportive of our registration process, which is, after all, quite tedious. I appreciate it so much."
The 2008 registration process is similar to last year's system, which involved supplying contact details and a standard passport photo.
Everyone, including children aged 13 and over, who wants to buy tickets will need to register first to be eligible to go through the sales procedure on 6 April.
Music lovers can either sign up online - via www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk - or by completing a registration form which is available from any branch of camping store chain Millets.
Glastonbury Festival 2008 takes place at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England over the weekend of 27-29 June.
