Also, because of the way the payment system works, it's possible that people may accidentally book two spots (especially if they have multiple people trying for them). These places tend to be dropped back onto the system pretty quickly as the office team resolves them during the morning. well worth hanging on for a bit if you don't get a place bagged early on then!

Full at 11:01, but then briefly available again at 11:10ish, and then again a couple times after that. With Glastonbury having 25 times more places available, have to assume there's the potential for the same to happen on a bigger scale.

balti-pie Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 I love it when first time volunteers get aboard, it reminds me of my own thrilled excitement at getting in 😄 its notably less exciting when you have priority and just slide straight in with no stress (but i'll not moan about that for a single second!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
