gizmoman Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Looks like 5 day tickets to me the way its worded ,thought they normally went on sale week before resale?That's what I thought too, it's the general sale link that takes you to this holding page too, if that's any clue.

Brave Sir Robin Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 "Local tickets will be released in two batches: telephone sales on the booking line, open at noon, Monday November 9....Online ticket sales open at 6pm, on Thursday, November 12. The web address is also printed in the newspapers....This will be followed on Thursday, November 26, with the Sunday ticket sale; which is open to the wider mid Somerset area including those who fall outside the local full weekend ticket catchment." http://www.sheptonmalletjournal.co.uk/Local-Glastonbury-Festival-tickets-sale-early/story-28115159-detail/story.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ommadawn Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Apparently they've gone on sale early so that they can offer the £50 deposit scheme to locals. Edited November 5, 2015 by Ommadawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice hymer Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 I managed to pick up a Shepton Mallet Journal earlier today. We've got a three day window to purchase by telephone before the website goes live...I'll be on the phone midday Monday ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather90 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Does anyone know if registration is still open? My flatmate is from Wells, although he's living away as a student his permanent address is at his parents. Think he might give in and get a ticket but he's not registered....

Yoghurt on a Stick Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Why the phone line. Is it to check for a Somerset accent?Probably - in order to prevent any grockle's getting a ticket on the sly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyT Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Anyone else trying on the old dog n bone today?We've got a few from my group who just missed out in the general sale so will be trying to get that sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuriedBones Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Anyone got the number to share? Registered local but can't find the number... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice hymer Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 It's good etiquette NOT to publish the number online. Hard enough for Locals to attend these days - the tele number is ONLY in the local papers for good reason !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree in part however registration is now closed and you can only get a local ticket if you're registered to an address in the correct catchment so putting the number online now isn't going to make it harder.

wilem Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Yeah I figured it was appropriate to post the number considering it's already online - the days when the number was kept to the papers has long gone. Apologies for the "bad etiquette", you might want to inform the organisers of these etiquette rules also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a time not so long ago when they were very fussy about keeping local info for local people - and I'd have been asked to delete that number if it was posted here (so I often pre-empted that by deleting before they asked).

Dr Green Thumb Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Not got through yet but I remember a couple of years ago I didn't get through until 5ish, hold tight you will get through, don't forget the lines are open a week.

Dr Green Thumb Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Haha I know what you mean, although whernt they on sale 2 weeks last year? I wasn't in the country so not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice hymer Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 I'm just a bit touchy about it these days. Twitter (not here I might add) is full of folk scheming to find local addresses to register at As far as I'm aware GFL usually keep this number offline - it's historically been a real sales boost to the local papers. The fact that you can buy via the website on Thursday suggests that they have a few tickets available. I haven't managed to purchase yet, no panic though, as didn't manage to get them until Tuesday last year - still keeping the faith ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
