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 – and this week/end the UK will see both rain and toasty weather. 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.

The Met Office weather forecast for Glastonbury

As it stands, the weather isn’t looking bad for Glasto-goers – in fact, dare we say it, thee weather could be really quite nice. Here’s the day-by-day forecast, according to the Met Office. 

Wednesday June 25

‘Sunny intervals changing to cloudy by nighttime’ says the Met, with highs of 25C and lows of 16C. There’s a slight (up to 30 percent) chance of rain from the early evening onwards. 

Thursday June 26

‘Light rain changing to overcast by late morning’ is the verdict, with highs of 22C and lows of 13C. This’ll be Glasto’s chilliest day, though the rain should peter out by midday or so. 

Friday June 27

‘Sunny intervals changing to overcast by nighttime’ is the official summary, with highs of 26C and lows of 17C. It’ll be a bit blustery in the afternoon, though there’s very little chance of rain until the early hours of Saturday.

Saturday June 28

There’s a slight (up to 10 percent) chance of precipitation in the early hours of Saturday, though the rest of the day will range from 16C to 26C. ‘Cloudy changing to sunny intervals by late morning’ says the Met. 

Sunday June 29

‘Sunny intervals changing to partly cloudy by nighttime’ is the Met Office verdict, with lows of 15C and highs of 26C. Sunday is also looking like the least windy day at Worthy Farm this year. 

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.
