A technical fault on Saturday left frustrated fans unable to access Glastonbury Festival’s livestream concert at the famous farm site in southwest England, after the coronavirus pandemic led to the blockbuster event’s cancellation.
The five-hour virtual show kicked off with a performance by British rockers Wolf Alice, but many ticket-holders, who had paid £20 ($28, 23 euros) to access a stream of the event, complained on Twitter that they missed it as their access codes were invalid.
“You’ve got thousands and thousands of us tweeting you saying we can’t get in due to invalid codes. Almost 10 minutes in and we’ve all missed the start,” wrote Twitter user Aimee Young.
