If you can’t sit on a coach with other people, there’s no way the festival will be on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OG Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 As the exam dates have been pushed back for next year it seems that quite a few more tickets will be returned. Whether that is good or bad news for some on efests I don't know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to be quiet and away in a corner so the acoustic would be ideal! Just ignore what’s on stage. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just sell the entry tickets in October then put all the coach packages on sale in April if they can? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that there aren't a lot of old coaches hanging around for big-day charters these days. There might be if the number of coach companies that have gone bust near me is replicated around the country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelarmy Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 The companies currently owning those buses may go into administration and the vehicles may change hands but those vehicles will still exist next June. By next summer coach travel will have resumed to some level of normality and someone will be operating those vehicles. Whether the same charter rates can be applied is unknown but there will be contracts available for those who want them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
