Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

If you missed out on Glastonbury tickets and are mentally strong enough to handle another, even more intense ticket scramble, there will be two resales this month.

Music fans wishing to travel to the festival by coach (or prepared to in order to bag a ticket), can try again at 6pm on Thursday 14 April when a “limited quantity” of tickets will be resold. These tickets are from those who failed to pay their deposits on tickets booked in October.

There will be a general admission sale at 9am on Sunday 17 April, with these tickets not including coach travel.

Festival-goers will have to cough up the full price at the time of booking as no deposit scheme is being offered this time around. Tickets will, however, be refundable until Friday 6 May.

Remember, if you fail to register by 5pm on Wednesday 13 April, you will not be able to take part in either of the resales. To ensure your registration has time to be approved, fill in the application by the end of today, Monday 11 April.

It remains unknown exactly how many tickets are being resold and the number will not be made available.

The original 120,000 tickets sold out in less than half an hour in October, before first headliner Coldplay had even been announced. The full line-up was revealed at the end of March, with Muse and Adele also topping the Pyramid Stage bills.
