Glastonbury 2025 is this week. And if you were lucky enough to get your hands on tickets, you’ll likely be packing your bags as we speak. But here’s the question – do you pack wellies or flip flops? A water-proof poncho or sunglasses? An umbrella or factor 50? Here’s what you need to pack for Glastonbury 2025 and all the stuff you definitely can’t bring.
This is the UK, so the weather at the end of June could be anything from miserably wet to excruciatingly hot. Neither are particularly ideal for an outdoor music festival packed with hundreds of thousands of people, but you can at least be prepared.
With the 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo headlining this year’s event (from June 25 to 29), here’s hoping southwest England stays pleasantly warm and dry for Glastonbury 2025. Now forecasters have a decent idea of what the weather will be saying, here’s the full forecast Worthy Farm this year.

Glastonbury 2025 weather forecast
As it stands, the weather isn’t looking bad for Glasto-goers. While the UK is enjoying hot weather for much of the past week or so, the balmy sunshine might not last right the way through the festival.
Met Office
For the period from Thursday June 26 to Saturday June 28, the Met Office says: ‘Often cloudy through this period, with some bright or sunny spells. The risk of showers, perhaps mostly on Saturday. Feeling pleasant in any sunshine, though also rather breezy at times.’
In its more detailed forecast, the Met Office says that Wednesday June 25 will have temperatures between 15C and 26C, with up to a 50 percent chance of precipitation in the evening. That rain will persist into Thursday morning and throughout the day, with a similar temperature range and a bit of sunshine later on.
On Friday, when the majority of Glasto kicks off, the Met says the festival can expect up to a 20 percent chance of rain throughout the day, with a periods of sunshine and highs of 26C (with lows of 15C). Saturday is looking similar though a tad drier, and Sunday will be similarly sunny but with a slight chance of rain around midday.
BBC Weather
The BBC’s predictions are looking rather similar to the Met Office, with the main predictions for rain being on Wednesday afternoon/evening and Thursday morning. The Beeb also reckons there’s a decent chance of rain throughout the day on Saturday, though says both Friday and Sunday will be dry.
Accuweather
AccuWeather’s forecast is a tad more sceptical about the sunshine, saying Wednesday on Worthy Farm will be ‘cloudy with scattered showers’ and that Thursday will see a ‘passing morning shower’. The site then goes on to say Friday will be ‘breezy and warm with sunny periods’, it sums up Saturday with ‘morning low clouds; decreasing cloud in the afternoon’, and says Sunday will be ‘pleasantly warm with bright periods’.
So, looks like you’ll need yer cagoule and sunnies! It wouldn’t be Glasto without unpredictable weather – and besides, it’s of course worth bearing in mind that the weather is still subject to change.
