Resale

I dropped on the booking page at about 11:50, I drop in now and again just on the bizarre off chance tickets might be on sale. Initially the front page said coach sale - presale. I nearly went off my rocker, it changed pretty quickly.

I have a question...

How do the coach tickets work in terms of allocation between cities? For example if everyone who got through wanted a ticket from Nottingham for some reason then would they all get a ticket and then Glasto would make sure there were more coaches in Nottingham to cover the allocation. Or, are there a finite number for each city left? For example 10 in Nottingham, 7 in Birmingham, 12 in Manchester etc...

Finite i believe.

Just wanted to wish best of luck to people tonight and also those trying on Sunday!

I know it's stressful, I got (very) last minute resale tickets in 2011 and that Sunday was an emotional rollercoaster :lol: Just try and get any friends/family you can involved, because the more people the better, and I'm sure you'll be successful. Multiple web BROWSERS are good, but don't waste time with several tabs on the same browser. There's no real pattern, some years one method is more successful than others and vice versa, so just try and cover all bases :)

Hopefully there was a tonne of 'Kanye West is rubbish' drop outs, because then people who genuinely want to go to Glastonbury can claim those tickets.

there are allocated seats on allocated coaches, once they are sold out that departure location wont be available to book for any more

Thanks Glasto Simon, Festival Freak! I've got tickets in two resales so remain hopeful, failing that there's always jumping in from a helicopter. Do you think they'd notice? Lol

I'd advise people to use the regular ticket links also but using the link above in October and having my registrations numbers filled out prior to 7pm got me a coach ticket in about 30 seconds!

yeah, currently arranging windows/sessions at various stages/pages of the system all prefilled, ready & waiting for 10 seconds into the sale to click a few next buttons to see what happens, il lose the first 30 seconds on this pc if it doesnt work but definitely worth a shot

We've got 5 trying, and our plan is that each of us has an assigned 4 that they get tickets for if they get through, and so each person has a 1/5 chance of missing out. Obviously once we're through and have those initial 4, we'll all carry on trying to get through again for the final person.

You want to be careful that you're in good contact with each other, because once the 4 are bought (hopefully), you'll have to put the last 1 in on it's own or it won't let you purchase it (in part of another group of 4 where 3 have been purchased already).

You might/probably already know this but I thought it was worth pointing out to you or someone else. We missed out on some tickets in the main sale because of something like this.

I am taking my son for a swimming lesson but am actually shelling out for a taxi in the hope that I will get back just in time! I'm leaving the computer on with booking forms open at various stages. Hope I have everything covered. Happy to help with anybody else here but, that said, on previous years I haven't been even able to get the Efestivals page open during the ticket buying!

Hi All. If someone could help with this question I would be very grateful. So I've done the test run (luckily my reg is still in date!) and I've selected my departure and as someone else has mentioned it states on sale on Sunday.

Firstly: Do you think we should just refresh this particular page at 6pm or go from the start? would obv be more preferable to not have to enter membership number and postcode, every second counts and all that.

Secondly: Will the times listed be correct, doesn't seem a huge amount of options from London and also unless I'm being incredibly thick I can't see the day of outbound travel, would be gutted to accidentally book a Thursday date.

Thanks for the help anyone can give me, and best of luck to everyone trying.

My guess is it's best to go from this page http://glastonbury.seetickets.com/event/glastonbury-2015-ticket-coach-travel-thursday/worthy-farm-pilton-somerset/867749as the next one along is going to change with the correct details at the bottom and a proceed button. Re coaches, it automatically comes up as Wednesday and gives you the option to choose a different day. Personally, I'm going for the cowardly Thursday route this year as they always sell out last and i'd rather miss a day than an entire festival.

Oops, the link I just sent you is the Thursday one but the Wednesday one is a bit earlier in this thread. Having said that, they could throw us a curveball and not use these links at all!!!!!!!

Best of luck tonight everyone trying. My advice would be, even if you don't necessarily fancy the bus trip, give it a shot tonight and work that out between tomorrow and June 23rd! Just be there! That's what I did.

With you on this, didn't fancy the coach at first but I just have to be there.

I was wondering the same, I refreshed the page, with my reg numbers on and it went back to the part before you choose whether you want insurance and choose your departure point, but it still kept my reg number and name, so I am hoping it will be OK to do the same later, although by no means sure

    • No idea how it'll work in a festival setting but really enjoying Prewn at the moment. 
    • Lineup announced, with the dates having been pushed back to 12th and 13th September. Tickets on sale tomorrow 8:30am.   12th September Chaka Khan Jack Savoretti Lulu Emeli Sande Texas ABC The Script   13th September Simple Minds Deacon Blue Level 42 Appleton Blue James Blunt Cast   I think it’s a pretty weak lineup compared to previous years to be honest - and think it’s quite lazy they’ve gone down the Scottish route so much (not sure Simple Minds would be classed as a headliner elsewhere in the UK).

    • I've been saying that it's been due for years. I don't recall anything but good luck, mainly, since 2016.   If we could get the bad year out of the way during the fallow year, and return to glorious sunshine next year, that would be most welcome.
