Hello,

I've paid the balance of my ticket off (yessss!) but only just had enough in my account to cover it.

Can i officially buy my car park ticket at a later date? Via See Tickets or the Glastonbury website itself?

Cheers

In the past folk have been able to pay on the day ... not sure if this is still an option though

Yeah you can buy one on the site entrance if you want of you can ring up see at a later date and they will add it to your order.

Sweet, don't want to risk it leaving it till on the day really. I'll call up See and book off them.

Thanks for the replies guys (yeah it rhymes).

Can I cancel a parking ticket without jeopardising my booked ticket?  I have no use for my parking ticket anymore, but a little cautious about phoning See to cancel it.

[IamChappu]

You should be able to cancel it without affecting the festival ticket but this is See we're talking about....

Check & double check that your ticket is still ok when cancelling the car park ticket & again afterwards!

That's the bit that scares me.  On the one hand I'd love to get my £15 back, but on the other, I don't want to have any risk over my ticket!

I wouldn't risk it.  It's only £15 and you'll probably be able to resell it on here nearer the time.  ( I bought one last year on here, there were a couple of threads with people looking to buy/sell)

Indeed, go with this option. Quite a few were doing it last year.

I cancelled my car park ticket last week as I wanted a camper van pass instead, and the £15 has been refunded to my account, with no impact on main tickets etc..

Was expecting it to be a diffcult process, being See and all that, however it was really simple and straight forward.

Based on this, I just phoned See, fingers crossed all that happens is I get the £15 refund!  The bloke from See did try to tease me that I would loose all my booked tickets though!   I just hope it was only a tease!

I sold a spare on eBay for twice it's price last year.

Edit: Whoops. I thought you were saying you has a spare.

I had a spare, but I just got it refunded from See just now.  Why would someone buy it at twice the price on eBay when you can buy them at the gate?

[bubbsio]

Yes you can buy it on the day, I do every year, they dont expect everyone to be able to plan ahead to the exact detail of how they are getting and even the best laid plans can change at the last minute.

A guy I work with works the festival and one of his tasks last year was being sent into the car park with hundreds of car park passes and a float. He took thousands of pounds on his shift alone, it was late at night and he was cacking himself the amount of cash he had to take up to the farm!

The Eavis's may even prefer selling a certain amount this way........

I think they probably don't know that you can buy them on the gate. There were lots on there last year for more than the selling price. Always are. I promised any profit to WaterAid/BHF which may have helped.
