Yeah, you need a Thursday entry ticket as well. Think it was 15 extra last year - but then fees and charges etc

Ahh okay. I should be able to sort that tomorrow right? Any ideas if they have sold out or not? Or am I right in thinking there is as many Thursday tickets available as weekend tickets?

I expect that I am wrong here but if they are now pushing KC as a 4 day festival with 4 nights of headliners then will the Thursday not be included ? In theory, you could still look to arrive a day early as before ( but now on the Wednesday ) and they could be charging extra for that. I never agreed with paying extra to arrive the day before the " official " start day anyway but I`m miserable that way B)

I don`t think any other festivals I`ve been to charge for early arrival and some have people arriving days before the main stages start.

Your normal ticket covers you for Friday to Sunday .

You pay extra for Thursday , the main stage can not open until 5:30 .

There will be no Wednesday entry .

If you wanna see james pay the extra for Thursday .

Hope that makes sense

Is there a link to buy a Thursday ticket? I can't find the Thursday tickets.

Would guess they'll advertise and push them tomorrow. Thursday tickets although usually advertised as limited never seem to sell out, although if James are playing this year the demand will be massive for them.

Thursdays gonna be mental trying to get in, can see the locals putting up with some shite !

Only been the last two years but can't help but feel they are trying to expand the festival to quickly. Been the Thursday both times and had no problem getting in with barely any queues or problems.

Can see this year being absolutely bouncing on the Thursday and the demand for tickets tomorrow high. Really hope this expansion to 4 days doesn't spoil what has been a thoroughly enjoyable festival these last two years.

So I was wrong about Thursday being "free". My predictions really are shite!

Looks like they are charging this year for the weans plus a further charge for them to get in on Thursday. They don't even like James :-(

Notice that the link is showing tier 4 tickets going on sale rather than tier 3 which the Kendal website was advertising going on sale soon.

Just bought tier 3 Pooly. £130 instead of £135 but doubt they will last long. £8.50 booking fee per ticket and Thursday now £25 plus fee and no more freebies for 5-10`s. Now £ 15 plus fee.

Think i paid £10 last year they then went to £15 when they announced Craig Charles was playing.

Increase in all tickets plus adding in the charge for the 6 year old certainly ups the cost of this years tickets to last years.

Guess thats the price for percieved progress.

Was excited about the potential prospect of going back to Kendal again after a couple of years, after seeing this years line up but the whole charging 30+ quid incl. fees on top of a full priced weekend ticket is putting me off... Also think it could lead to James playing to a half empty field.... I can also see it bring a race against time for all campers arriving on the Thursday.... For them to actually fight the traffic, get pitched and get to the arena on time....

Surely combined thurs-sun wknd package at say £150 with a £10 weds early entry ticket would be more ideal... With a small upgrade package available for those early birds.... :/

I doubt the girlfriend will want to take the full day off work, so factor in her definitely not leaving on time for her "half day", I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing James despite having paid the extra!
