Glastonbury Festival has sold "a few thousand less tickets" this year in an attempt to ease the build-up of heavy crowds, organiser Emily Eavis has said.
This year's event, which will take place in Somerset later this month, is sold out but will not use its full 210,000 capacity.
"It'll be interesting just to see how that affects the dynamics on site," Eavis told the BBC's Sidetracked podcast, adding that she wants to see if the reduction "can make an impact on some of the busier times".
She revealed they have also created more room for the audience at the Other Stage, the festival's second-biggest arena, where Charli XCX is expected to attract a huge crowd when she headlines on the Saturday night.
The Shangri-La nightlife area will also have more room after the festival bought extra land, she said.
