Glastonlocal Posted June 25 Report Share Posted June 25 Any villagers had issues with their ticket this year? Just exited with a friend who was transferred onto a family members ticket and security were insistent that she could not have a pass out because it was against the rules. Is that right? I could swear you've always needed a pass out for anyone using the ticket to re-enter and they've been given out every day so far this year.

We have been leaving through Mary’s gate and been given the pass each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooter Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Maybe keeping one for their passoutless friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a pile of them, not registered to any name and not scanned or tracked. May be a mistake based on poor information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willgooneday Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 (edited) The festival should start paying more to attract a better calibre of artists and people should be willing to pay a higher ticket price to accommodate it. It's currently in a ridiculous situation where the only people who can afford to take their low fees are established pop acts and legacy acts. The more mainstream it's gonna get the less it can rely on being something special to pay less to smaller artists and the less big smaller artists the more everybody will go to the big stages and cause the festival big issues.

Not sure of the relevance to village tickets but valid input somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glastonlocal Posted June 26 Author Report Share Posted June 26 It's weird. We got given a passout in the end (refused to leave without one), but tested it the next day by trying to enter without one. It worked, they just wanted ID to check the name matched what's written on the transfer. Made no sense to me whatsoever. But then last night they were handing out passouts again. This was at the Sticklinch gate, not gate B where most village tickets come in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t bother tugging the wristbands this year which they normally do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jensescapade Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 Hi I was working Marys Gate and we had strict guidance for what was permitted. Pass outs were definitely part of the exiting plan x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
