:D Now that we're all getting excited about festi season I'd just like to mention that Alchemy still has Earlybird tickets on sale and most of the lineup has been announced. Bookends the summer nicely with Bearded. :beach:

In case anyone on this thread didn't realise, Bearded sold out yesterday. You're maybe number 3000 Flower Child! Anyone else who still wants to come, beg and borrow etc. There's usually people who can't come at the last minute who'd happily sell off their tickets.

Delay in See removing their allocation from sale . Try again now.

PMSL - if they had an allocation, and had to be told to remove "their allocation from sale", then that can surely only mean there were still tickets. :lol:

After all, tickets that don't exist can't be allocated to anyone.

We sold more tickets on our shop so they were asked to reduce theirs and another agents which in essence sold the event out? Hilarious I know Neil xxx

We had 5 agents flogging our tickets to get access to their databases who report sales back to us. Once we hit capacity they are taken off sale. There could be a small overlap between us selling out and them taking tickets off sale but as we are massively under our licensed capacity it does not cause an issue. Simple as that.

Listening to the rain tipping down all last night I decided that I don't expect the weather to be anything but wet and cold-that way I can't be disappointed. Suddenly I felt a whole lot happier.

I'm just going to fill the car with lots of spare warm clothes, have some vodka for internal warmth, and sod the weather.

I can confirm that the Dance Tent will be warm, dry and will have psychedelic flowers, uv dragons, lumious stars, other mad stuff and 36 hours of corking music...I have therefore not packed my waterproofs!!

Cheers everyone who bought tickets and sold us out again...thats still 100% of Bearded Theory Festivals that have sold all available tickets.. tis true we could easily up the capacity, we have the space and already provide over the required allocation of boggage etc...think we'll stay as we are tho..beard-shaped and lovely...

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
