This year's Glastonbury Festival has been given the go-ahead by the local council, who have approved a licence securing the event's future until 2010
Mendip District Council in Somerset has agreed the four-year licence, which will also allow the festival's capacity to expand by 27,500 to 177,500.
Almost 400,000 fans have registered for tickets, which go on sale on Sunday.
The Arctic Monkeys, the Kaiser Chiefs and The Who have all been lined up to play at the event from 22-24 June.
But festival organisers must meet certain conditions, such as holding at least three public meetings with Pilton Parish Council before the event and one after.
They must also provide event management plans every year and give festival dates with plenty of notice.
The licensing board was made up of various members of the local community, such as the police force, fire brigade and environmental health.
Charles Uzzell, the council's business manager for planning and environment, said the licensing process had "gone extremely well".
"It has involved a lot of hard work from the applicant, the council and the responsible authorities, and the local community," he said.
