It's too easy for the digital ticket touts to grab 100's of tickets for any major even to to triple the price and re-sell them. My mate want ZZ Top tickets for their pre Glasto warm up show but they are £120+ now on the ticket reselling sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was cheaper for me to see Coldplay in Nice, France (including flying down and staying in a hotel for the night) because they were being resold for London at ridiculous prices.

It's morally wrong Prince was going to do a piano tour over here at the end of last year but as soon as the touts were selling tickets before they had even gone on sale to the public he pulled the plug!! But at least with Glasto all the tickets have been sold at face value to someone who want to go to the festival..... Just frustrating that it sells out in minutes and some do have to miss out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfool01 Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 if its the western daily press I have been very lucky in that one before , we have won the chance to purchase tickets one year and also actually won a pair of tickets in another year , a good one to go for as maybe there arent so many entrants !!

Can anyone advise or suggest anything? There's so many comps out there and would be fab for some eFestivallers to win some. Through googling in a vain attempt to find more Glastonbury competitions, I came across this https://www.competitions-time.co.uk/tickets-comps More than a bit tempted to just spend a few hours entering 100s (not just for tickets) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. Would recommend a spare email address. I now get upwards of 300 spam emails a day haha. But so worth it. Biggest recent win was £1000 from kiss fm!
