Any ideas about tickets?

Hi..

My desperation has taken a new kind of form! I've applied for two different jobs, both of them were apparently taken aback by me, but did not have a place to give me anymore.. I was completely unsuccessful in the sales. Nor is luck on my side for the competitions.

I was meant to go to Glastonbury with my boyfriend, as we've been trying to go together for the past 2 years with no avail. As it stands now, I won't see him for another 2 months because this plan is failing miserable (and I last saw him in early March, how's that for tugging on your heart strings?!)

I'm apparently not too proud to beg. Any one got any suggestions on how to get a ticket?

my fingers and toes ate crossed that something will come in.... if I've not had any luck by mid next week then it could over for 2 years : (

Again, I know the risks involved but does anyone if you travelled down, if anybody would be selling tickets outside?

Are you SIA registered?

It may be worth trying to put your name down with some of the security firms as a back up incase someone pulls out. REALLY unlikely but desperation calls and all that.

I don't think the hanging around for a ticket at the station or the gate will be fruitful, this generally doesn't happen and I think if anyone was to try they would be spotted and pulled.

A friend of mine emailed all the smaller bands one year asking ALL of them if she could go with them as a dancer! It worked one year but she did have to pay THEM! Could be fun if it works for you.

Good luck x x

Has any of you ever gone with someone else's ticket btw? I want to know how strict it is.. I made a phone call to see tickets not too long ago, and they recommended a few sites which they support where people can sell their tickets. But I don't think Glastonbury ticketing itself is involved in this..

Yeah you can.. I've never had a problem getting in the carpark without a ticket.. I just tell them I'm working and picking up my ticket at the gate from my employer who is coming out to meet me.. Pick a random stall name, they don't know anyway.. If you haven't got a carpark pass they'll sell you one, usually a tenner although I hear they've gone up.. My other favourite tactic is saying 'That guy back there said it'd be ok..' You can always wave at the person you talked to further back and they'll cheerily wave too..

    • Israel and Lebanon agree to a ceasefire...problem is Hezbollah, and problem with Hezbollah is Israel. Israel should withdraw, put onus solely on Hezbollah...who are already weakened, which would then strengthen credibility of the Lebanese govt. But with Netanyahu in charge that is unlikely.
    • I saw that the payment method is contactless wristbands - I understand you collect them at the festival site and can top them up there as well? Yes, there are top up points, keep the recepe if you want to withdraw the money in the end   How much does food and drink usually cost at the festival? We would like to know how much money we should prepare for the festival. Beer, Wine etc. 5€, Gin tonic, Whishkey Cola were 6-6.5€, food 10€    Is there a bus from the festival site to the city center? And are there any stops along the way? No offical info yet, but ussualy there are free festival buses from Ljubljanica to festival site, with few stops on the way. Nice to get to the festival but crowded from festival back to the city.   Where is the best place to find an Uber/Bolt to return from the festival site? Petrine ulica   Are there any shaded areas to take a break from the strong sun? Yes, i think there is some.
