I have made the fatal mistake of assuming parking would automatically be included with my ticket  :angry:
Is there any car parks near by I could use instead?
Thanks

If you want one before just stick a note on my profile. I have ended up with a spare and not interested in making a profit...in fact I will knock a few quid off.

The situation regarding car park tickets needs sorting out. Every year people think they need to pre-buy a car park ticket because the festival is intentionally unclear about it in order to get people to pre-buy.

A better solution would be to charge less for pre-bought tickets and more on the door.

everyone says get it at the gate, from who or where? I never see anyone selling the car park tickets once in the car park,

Basically, if you drive in and you see the people in yellow jackets, if you've got a sticker they just wave you on or point you where to go, if you haven't they walk up to you and sell you a pass, I don't think they even check for passes once you've parked, its just that its impossible to get to a parking space without one of them getting you to buy a pass.

So yeah, if you've always had a pass you wouldn't know that they sell them.

I thought that was basically what was meant to happen, but sometimes people got in for a lil less on the gate?
