So if Im picking up my tickets at the box office Ill have to present both my ticket and barcode to enter? Or do I have to get a regular wristband and also get a WV one? It’s not clear is it. I’d guess you’ll get a regular wristband at PGA which they will take off you and swap for a WV one at WV. I’ve not stayed in WV before but I’m sure people had one WV specific wristband only.

Your GA one and then a separate WV or SL one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I dont mind having 2 wristbands. Because if I just grab my ticket and head to WV then they presumably have to have regular wristbands and WV wristbands for whoever needs them right? They couldnt just have WV ones and nothing else, especially if youre driving and you show up at the gate with your ticket and barcodes in hand.

But we'll see I guess. https://c.ststat.net/Content/PDF_attachments/WV_22.pdf In 2019 we got barcodes and tent numbers two days before so don’t fret. I’ve received the email and I’m not even the lead booker, the ref number is for my parking tickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the traditional style ones and then a crappy one. Will be a bit weird for the people who arrive at Gate A and get a normal wristband first before heading to WV or SL.

Cause they cant do anything about you going through PGA and having walked through the fest site and up the hill to WV to check in since thats an option lol.

Mark H Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Hi. This may be a bit trivial but do we need to print the barcode or will it scan off a phone? Ill probably have arrived in London by the time it’s sent and have no idea where I would print it 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu H Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 I’m a bit worried now; it says number of wristbands only given to maximum occupants of tent. I’m in a 4-person Bell Tent in Sticklinch. There’s 3 adults, a 5 year old & a 2 year old. I hadn’t thought kids were a problem. Is it going to be?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m amazed I still have my 2019 wristband as my husband normally has it straight on eBay! It really wasn’t that different, just slightly different design with WV/EPO on it (WV take your ticket). They may even remove it to give you a WV one…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere I believe it says you can have I child per 2 person tent and 2 per 4 person. You do have to tell them in advance and “I think” kids get their own wristband just for WV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wherethewildthingsare Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 We had a 13 year old in our 4 person bell tent last time (with 4 adults) I don’t recommend it! Should be ok with little ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to the adults, we allow one child per two & four person accommodation unit and two children per six & eight person accommodation unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they will let you keep your wristband if you go through Gate A. Assume that they will remove it and give you a WV one due to the risk of people giving their normal wristbands to someone to try and enter the site with.
