Why does Glastonbury use deposits?

Glastonbury uses a deposit system to make tickets more accessible and manage demand. Fans pay a small deposit initially, then the balance later. This allows more people to secure a ticket without paying the full amount upfront, and helps filter out speculative bookings.
