    You follow the instructions posted to you with the CV ticket for the route to use, to access the CV fields. In previous years you got a sticker to fix to your windscreen with CV East/West on it.

    You drive through some fields down some metal track to a security check where they should check if everyone in the CV has a valid ticket and the CV ticket matches one of the people in the CV and will carry out a quick check for glass bottles or other "banned" items.

    If all is good they direct you to one of the fields and a marshal will tell you where to park, if you have an awning or are putting a tent on your pitch tell them before they get you to park as it may change what pitch they put you in or where in the pitch.

    To gain initial access to the festival you take your ticket to the gate pass through the security checks and get wrist banded - just like if you were camping.

    To leave the festival to get back to the CV fields you leave by the same gate and make sure you get a pass-out ticket (or you won't be let back in).

    To get back in you'll need the wristband, ticket and pass-out when you get to the security check and go through the "re-entry" gate.

     

    If at B&W add queue for shuttle-bus between B&W to PED-A to the process.

    Awesome, thanks for the detailed response! 

  2. Hi! 

    I'm hoping to secure a campervan ticket but I was wondering what the process is in terms of arrival etc.

    Do you drive in with camper, get tickets checked and have security search of the van? Or do you go through to the field and then queue again to get wrist band? Any help would be great :)

    lots of lights and accsesories ... and add something random that will make people double take .....for example I went to a butlins  clubbing weekend armed with a toilet brush with a few led lights wrapped around it ....the small things make the difference and are often the things that get people commenting ... let me know if you find a theme ... I like to base my outfits on the festival as that's what we all have in common at that point 

    Cool, thanks!!

    that was a while back .. not really taken off although it was the plan ... not sure I have the business organisation or the time investment won't make it that financially viable ...its great to do for fun in the meantime :) 

    Definitely! :) I wish I was creative enough to design costumes!! Trying to think of a good costume for next year that isn't itchy lol any tips?

    This *might* be a red herring in 50 shades of gray - both crazyfool1 and I noticed the header disappear from the holding page last night in the coach sale, but we were both careful to not exceed the refresh limit, so my speculation was that the graphic was adding too much weight to the download and they dropped it

    Did anyone else notice the header disappear about 10 mins into the coach sale?

    Yes, I noticed this! As did the rest of my group

    I don't know if reading that others had the same makes me feel better, worse or... clearly just the same. Wonder how close we were/if there was anything we could have 

    I feel the same!! So close... Just hoping it will be okay on Sunday... less to look at/think about :)

    Well annoying.... ours had 0 or 6... we clicked 6.

    didnt have any problems with that. We had to go back 3 times to re-enter the details.... then after putting card details in the t&c box wouldn’t physically tick!!! Luckily at 6:15 it did.... keep looking at email confirmation. Feel in a dream world ? 

    ps.... don’t forget that coaches are in such high demand. 15000 compared to 120000 is a massive difference.

    everyone trying just in case.... only reason we tried is to free up more people to try for others come Sunday.

    good luck 

     

    Double shit! Literally the same thing that happened here, and to lots of others too from what I can see ? congrats on getting tickets! Wish me luck ??

    Got through to the coach ticket page. Picked 4 on the drop down for the 4 of us. Clicked buy ticket & it comes up with "you need to select the correct number of tickets for who's going". Kept trying for that and other locations and it kept coming up with that same message. Bug or did anyone else experience this?

    Really frustrating. So close and yet so far.

    Same! It happened over and over again until I got a message saying they were sold out:( I kept going back to make sure I had definitely added the right amount of regs on and I had!!

    My mates think I’m obsessed and taking the ticket buying process too seriously, I should show them all this thread so they can see how much worse I could be.

    I’ll be refreshing on my one computer with my mates’ details in a spreadsheet, all this extra stuff is probably just more confusion unless you really know what you’re doing.

    Haha same, my mates think I'm being way over the top... I call it dedication!

    Ok listen up people.....I've been testing out the refresh rate thing again and it seems that I now get the 'busy' page when I F5 at anything up to a 2 second interval.....and it seems to fire after just 30 keystrokes rather than after 60 seconds.

    Now I'll caveat this with the facts that I have been trying this for some time, so there is the possibility that See have clocked me specifically, and I'm also currently on hotel wifi in Thailand (although I get same result with a VPN connection on a UK IP).

    Before I cause widespread panic that the F5 rate is now limited to 2 seconds instead of 1 could people out there try this and corroborate or otherwise please?  If we can prove it's not the case then I will have this post removed.

    Like I say, may just be me, but let's see if we can be sure of that. It's also possible that See have wound it down ahead of tonight's sale and will lift it back up later....

    If you want to ensure you keep a regular F5 rate download a metronome app, set it to 35bpm, and keep in step with that.

    I just tried this on the work PC but the fake queue page didn't come up when I do the two second thing. If I hammer the f5 key it comes up :) weird that yours did this!
