ALL 135,000 tickets for next year's Glastonbury Festival sold out in just 1 hour and 40 minutes.
The music festival's organisers, father and daughter Michael and Emily Eavis, said they were "genuinely humbled by the sheer number of people" who wanted to attend.
They posted on Twitter: "Tickets for Glastonbury 2013 have now sold out, in 1h 40m (a record)."
Millions of people tried to log onto the ticket website when it opened at 9am yesterday, but many were unable to get on to the page because of the volume of hopeful music fans.
