Resale

Recommended Posts

I had to get tickets in the resale last year and didn't bother with the coach resale, you just have to be prepared to live with that decision if you do fail in the GA resale. I got tickets fairly easily in the GA resale by the way.

There will be secret sales later in the year, but with the Australian time difference and costs of flights that might not be a realistic option for you.

Ive read a lot of "fairly easily" comments about the resale...praying it happens the same this year!!

I'm not being held responsible if this year it's a bitch to get tickets!

Haha its not just you!

To be fair, people said it was reasonably easy Rolling Stones year, and that was with a lineup AND the biggest act glastonbury has ever had. Touch wood but im pretty confident as long as no headliner/lineup is announced in the next week

gutted about the maximum being 4 tickets per transaction- there's five of us who need tickets still!

And I'll be gutted if my mates get tickets and i don't :P

One of you could go for a coach ticket and then the rest could bring it their gear down to make it easier/more aceptable option?

Fantastic shout. Cheers!

Think two of us will go for the coach tickets to prevent one of us being alone for however long. We'll be laughing if that works out.

For 2014 we didn't get even close to tickets in the main sale and had all but given up on going. Of course gave the resale (non coach) a go and managed to get them within about 5 minutes with no real hassles.

Good luck to everyone having a go this year

II got nowhere near in either of the resales last year, so I'd say it's just as much luck of the draw as in the October sale.

Nearly got a ticket in one of the unannounced re-re-sales being monitored on here, but made fatal mistake of leaving the office after it seemed that only a few tickets had been available and had been snapped up immediately. Returned to computer half an hour later to find about three pages of happy campers who had all managed to get tickets about five minutes after I left.

So whatever happens over the next few weeks keep believing and persevering.

have always found it pretty easy getting tickets in the resale. you'll be fine brothers and sisters.

might be plucking this out of my arse but i think there can only be a fraction of the amount who go for the main sale that follow up with a resale attempt. obviously there is a fraction of the tickets too but i think even taking proportions into account, the chances are better. so many will think that the festival is now only weeks away and planning and paying for a festival at such short notice is hard for a lot of people.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get single coach ticket or is it all return only apart from London and Bristol?

I'm the only one out of my mates who is ticketless at the moment so would like to travel back with them preferably

you'll have to pay for the return but there's nothing stopping you not turning up for the bus home.

Plus many will have made alternative plans for the summer

What happens if the one gets a coach ticket, and the other 4 fail? Tragic. I do think if peeps get on the booking page, there will be one chance and one chance only. I reckon it will sell out fast

You can still get a refund minus booking fee until a date in may I think... so you could do that or hope for one of the secret sales near to the event. We ended up getting the 4 we needed during the resale last year.... so it can be done

    • I don't know if they were playing the game of only putting certain seats on sale, but the presale for the Hydro was a battle - usual game of selecting blue seats only for them to have gone by the time you clicked through to checkout.  No standing available at all.  I managed to get two seats eventually, way over to the side.
    • Thom Yorke will be releasing new music this year. Would be amazing to have him (his 2019 Tomorrow's Boxes tour was stellar). Ed O Brien can also play a small set. Could be lovely.   Can see Fontaines DC headlining next year (if Mad Cool doesn't get them). Is Raye edgy enough for this? She's amazing live but maybe not a 'Primavera name'?   Hoping for a return of Run The Jewels (rumored to be working on something new?) Fred Again is a good shout as wel.  
    • Other than the very challenging hours of the storm (and PS's terrible mismanagement), I thought weekend was fantastic. Main highlights on Thursday - Blood Orange and Ahadadream>>Bambi>>BenUFO run at Plentitude right after the storm which were all a blast, Friday -  Avalanches DJ set (only played for an hour but could've continued for another two as far as we were concerned), The Cure (amazing show and his expression right at the end of the show which was caught on screen was very special) and on Saturday - Baxter Dury (seen him twice before but he has become a real performer, band was tight too). We accidentelly bumped into him in the VIP area later and he was so humble and modest and generous to us that I completely fell for him) and Smerz (especially the last 3 songs). Also loved BCNR at Parallel62 on Sunday. Crushed to have missed Overmono. Can't wait for next year.
    • well, the attack was in a republican area...
    • huge interpol fan here and saw them a lot but cannot recall they did Primavera Barca the last 3 years?
