In a hilarious video, a couple unknowingly filmed themselves winning tickets to this year’s Glastonbury Festival and their reaction is priceless. Tony’s Chocolonely has released a line of limited-edition milk chocolate, sea salt, and caramel bars with five pairs of “golden tickets” to Glastonbury Festival 2023 tucked away inside.
Jovi Bunce and Abigal Pearce from Didsbury were the fortunate couple to win the tickets. In the video Jovi uploaded to YouTube on the 25th April, an unexpecting Abigal is seen kissing the bar before opening it and finding the coveted tickets. The camera then flips to Jovi doing a victory lap and jumping with joy whilst shouting “No way!”. Charlie Bucket would be proud. Watch the video below:

Tony’s Chocolonely, whose mission is to make chocolate 100% exploitation free by ending modern slavery and child labour in the chocolate industry, has teamed up with Oxfam to create the bars. All profits from the limited-edition bars will go to Glastonbury’s charity partner Oxfam. Set up by Dutch television producer and journalist Teun van de Keuken back in 2005, Tony’s Chocolonely is an award-winning company that made its products available in the UK in 2019. The ticket containing chocolate bars will be available to purchase until the 16th June. Bars are sold out online but are still available to purchase at your local Oxfam shop for just £3.99. Find your local store here. Tony’s Chocolonely shared the video of the couple winning the tickets on its Twitter page writing, “Drum roll.. we have our first winner! Congrats to Jovi, who after missing out on resale bought his winning @oxfamgb @glastonbury bar at @OxfamDidsbury”. They confirmed that the couple are the first winners in their caption: “No need for FOMO. There’s still 4 more pairs of tickets to be found”. One of the videos the chocolate company shared on its Twitter currently has over 33.4K views.
