helsbellski Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 I agree that today is looking unlikely. But I'm clinging on to the fact that they put Tipis on sale at about 4.30 the other day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Lee Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 I don't think this is happening today now. Potentially another week of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don;t the festival just straight up come out with their intentions, let everybody off the hook until the actual scheduled day/time. Just say it Glastonbury festival & stop treating people this way. There, that;'s off my chest, I have a ticket but feel for the many folks that are still desperate. Well said and I like the sentiment, but... If they say that there's going to be something, and are more specific, then it'll be tens of thousands, rather than thousands - and that won't make there be any more tickets. This is torture though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibear Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) Not secret-resale related but I just got a Glastonbury competition email from Wateraid to win two tickets: http://www.wateraid.org/uk/get-involved/events/glastonbury-2017-ticket-competition?dm_i=28HF,12DDG,4HBW0O,36LF6,1 Good luck! Edit: I think this is already in the competitions thread, but just in case someone missed it...! Edited May 12, 2017 by alibear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a ticket in the secret resale last year and it was definitely limited to 2 tickets. I know this has been asked but I could not find the answer, can you use a credit card or does it have to be a debit card ?? Sorry I got distracted by the knob jokes !!!

In October and April I couldn't get through to a ticket page! I have a ticket as someone else got them, but trying for two more who missed out! They should make the October sale a secret sale. That way the die-hard fans would be the first in the know, and the rest would find out as news spread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tickets really must be accessible to everyone, without newcomers etc the festival would not have the same magic. The secret resale and the lack of knowledge around this is probably enough for the die hards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prophet6 Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 Or they should give everyone who commits and succeeds in the secret resale a bye into the next round, i.e. automatic ticket for the next fest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they should make the October sale full price, people will have to commit and probably buy less tickets as it's a huge outlay. The demand is massive when there is very little risk if you decide not to go when the balance is due (you get 35 of your 50 quid deposit back) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markian Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 I think it's pretty safe to say that this year the only secret thing about this sale is the timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helsbellski Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 It's got to the point that whenever anyone in the office gets a text message I leap out of my skin. This is doing nothing for my anxiety levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
