  1. They could change the code, but have the line that points to the new link remmed out with a // in front of it. So it would appear in the code, but not on the live page itself, which would trigger an alert (if you were monitoring the page) but wouldn't necessarily show on the page itself.

     

     

     

     

     

     

  2. This bit is a little more interesting;

    As if they're going to add a link/button for the resale tickets, it would (in theory) appear in this section. So it might (and this is a proper stretch of a might here) appear as code before it appears on the live site; for example if they want to check the links work before they make it go live.

     

    All this is proper guessing though, not to be taken as gospel at all.

  3. Checking through the source code, can see the countdown timer in there;

    lang.addString("CountDownTimer.SorryButPageTimedOut", "You have exceeded the time limit and your reservation has been released. We apologise for any inconvenience.");
    lang.addString("CountDownTimer.TimeLeft", "Time left <span class='hide-mobile'>to complete your order</span>");
    lang.addString("CountDownTimer.PageTimeout", "Page Timeout");

     

    Doesn't seem to be any change from yesterday though.

    Whats the story behind this. Its popped up regularly the past week and id love to know what it means. Even with no context it made me laugh.

     

    There were Whatsapp groups last year to let people know when the flash resales were taking place, and in one of the larger ones this guy accidentally posted a picture of himself (or his mate, I forget which) dressed as Ron Burgundy from a fancy dress night.

     

    The whole group goes MENTAL as everyone thinks it's a resale notification. People are yelling at each other, someone mentions how they pulled over onto the hard shoulder of the motorway to try and get tickets.

     

    Can imagine it was an utter ballache for anyone involved, but from the outside it was pretty damn funny. Think someone mentioned about getting that photo made into a flag in homage; not sure if that ever happened though.

    Am i right in thinking those of us who bought tickets via festicket we will collect our wristbands at the entrance to the festival?

     

    Also did they produce a site map last year? Just wondering about the layout of the festival

     

    That's what they did last year for ticket collection. Took the printed out page to the front, had it scanned and swapped for a wristband (wristband had a mini barcode in it that also doubled as charge token for the cashless bars)

     

    I don't remember seeing a site map being given out, but there were plenty of big ones around the place so just took a photo of one with my phone.

    Hey folks. Was just wondering if anyone knew how easy / difficult it is to get back into Madrid after the festival ends each evening? Cheers!

     

    We left just before the end of Die Antwoord last year (closing act on the second night) and got a taxi straight away, around 3:30/4am.

    Cost about 10€ IIRC, and that's going from the festival site to my apartment which is North-East-ish.

     

    There are also shuttle buses that went from 3-4:30am from the festival back into central Madrid. One journey was 2.50€, or you could get a ticket for all three days for 6€.

    agh I sent a link of them fraudulent tickets to the glasto email this morning, followed by the question is there any planned secret resale? 

    This was the response.

     

    Thanks for letting us know Daniel, there are no further resales planned for this year, so at this stage it would just be any official ticket competitions that might be running.

     

    Best wishes,

     

    Glastonbury Festival

     

     

    Interesting.

     

    Does anyone know if they have they flat out denied there being any flash resales in previous years?

    Awesome, glad to hear that, haven't heard from many that have actually been! How cheap is cheep for booze? See you there!

    Like I didn't feel I was getting skanked paying for drinks at any point, and they were free pouring spirits which means no stingy optics measures like you get at UK festivals.

    Hello mate, regarding the wristband is this picked up at the festival site or sent in the post? 

    Printed out tickets, exchanged them for wristbands at the site.

     

    The wristbands have a barcode built into them as I mentioned earlier. This barcode then gets 'charged' at pay points around the site with however much you want to put on them. The balance then gets taken off at the food/drink places whenever you pay for something.

     

    (Added bonus was we found a wristband in the pit during Prodigy's set, which when we checked scanned it at one of the pay points turns out had 20€ still on it, so we grabbed burgers and as many bottles of water as we could afford before Die Antwoord started B))

     

    Only regret was maybe not heading to one of the smaller arenas to see Caribou, but it was a toss up between leaving after Jane's Addiction and then having to mission it there and back, or else staying put and getting front row for Prodigy. We ended up staying and it was mental :D

  9. Went this year, absolutely loved it.

    Easy to get to/from city centre, though metros on the way down were a bit pack up as to be expected with people going to the festival site. No outside alcohol but drinks inside were cheap, there were loads of bars, and the cashless bar system they had (your wristband had a barcode strip in it that you 'charged') worked well, meaning hardly any queues. There was a Spain match on in the Euros the night we went, and they'd stuck a huge TV screen up away from the stages by the bars where people could watch it they wanted; it changed to live feed from whatever of the two stages were playing later on after the match had finished. Toilets were clean, drinks measures were generous, great selection of food trucks and hardly any queues that we saw.

     

    Can't recommend this festival enough. Going again next year for sure.

    Can any of us try for you? I know there's the payment issue etc though

     

    Thanks for the offer, but I'm good :)

     

    @funkyuk @cb4747 -  If the resale hasn't happened by Thursday, I've still got your details saved to my desktop so will continue to keep an eye out :D

  12. £5,995 +VAT for two people.

    £10,495 +VAT for four people / families.

    ------------------------------------------------

    We supply stageside hospitality tickets at cost with each accommodation booking at £395 each plus VAT.

     

    Crikey.

  13. Or less refunds. This years headliners are much more mainstream than they have been in previous years IMO.

     

    Metallica, Kanye etc...all quite polarizing. Coldplay, Muse and Adele are about as middle of the road as you can get.

    Didn't seem to be anything significant, so I'd just take it to mean there are people in work at SEE today!

     

    Surprised they're not all signed off with stress after the amount of grief they got yesterday over Twitter.
