Coach Tickets 2025

[Mgoogs]

Managed to bag myself 2 coach tickets from Taunton on the thurs. anyone know what sort of time this might end up being based on previous years? It looks like it might be a bit of a late one. I’m hoping we don’t miss too much or struggle to get a decent camping spot!

Son bagged wednesday from Norwich for his brother.  I kept refreshing, bars went up and then I turned into a bot!

Is it true that London departures have changed from the O2 to Wembley Arena?

Well done. I would be interested in knowing this. It was 3.45pm in 2022, though has been in the morning in past years.

Does anyone have any info on departure times from York? A nice fella managed to get me and my missus 2 tickets from York on the Thursday. Don't care that we have to travel from London to get there, just happy to be in again!

Think they are early from further away.  Seen times of 7 or 8.45am quoted elsewhere.  Then about 6hrs journey

Seriously wild commitment. Love it.

Not seen it first hand but seen several reports that it's moved to Pink Parking at Wembley. Which makes sense as it's a huge purpose built multi storey coach park, that sits idle most of the time and has easier routes to the West, whereas the O2 area is getting much busier.

 

Pink Parking is to the East of the stadium though, so is a bugger to get to from any of the public transport options.

Yes it has they emailed me to confirm about 2 weeks ago (we got coach tickets in main sale) it is a right pain for me as it adds an hour in a taxi at 2.30 am to get to the coach but I can see that it makes more sense logistically

I got Wednesday coach tickets from Taunton in the resale a few years back and it was around 3pm ish, everyone I spoke to on the coach had also got theirs in the resale. Congratulations on the success, hopefully I'll join you on the farm this Sunday in the general resale

[BigTOnTour]

Wow, seems like Taunton was a popular option (First time that sentence has ever been used)

Also got lucky getting 2 Wednesday tickets, was too late for Bath & Bristol but remembered someone on here saying Taunton is a safe bet - whoever it was, I owe them a pint!

Hi, would anyone know the coach times from Glasgow or when it would get to the site? I was lucky to get tickets yesterday, but from Glasgow. I am hoping that the coach goes super early. Thank you

I also managed to get a ticket from

Glasgow yesterday. I know the National Express coach leaves Glasgow at 11pm on the Tuesday night. Have a feeling (just from some digging around) that the See Tickets coach leaves around the same time/midnight-ish.

Congress on getting a ticket. If it did go at midnight, we would be down for 7 or 8, which would be great, but super tired.

I bagged a couple leaving from London at 4pm Thurs. Should be there about 9pm I guess. Maybe sooner, it should be quite a bit quicker from Wembley than the old o2 slog out and around the M25.

 

I'm used to arriving Weds during the day, but I really shouldn't be moaning!

The good news is the coach and you will breeze straight in. There was zero traffic on the gates last year on Thursday afternoon / evening.

Really feel they shouldn't charge full price for tickets that arrive that late into it.

 

A mate of mine got a resale ticket in 2011 (I think) but it was a coach Thursday one, by the time he was at our campsite with a beer in hand he'd missed most of the day and said he felt like everyone was two paces ahead as they'd been settled in for over 24 hours by that point.

Well. *festival* zero. You know what I mean.

Conversely, it'll be nice to potentially have a semblance of life in me on Sunday. I'm usually completely done for by Saturday after caning it from Wednesday lunchtime.

Yeah definitely. I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of people who end up on Thursday coaches would prefer Wednesday but feel pushed into accepting the guaranteed second choice option rather than take the risk of rolling over into general where they may not get a sniff.

 

Seems unfair that they're effectively penalised for being substantially more flexible than I would be.

You're probably right.

 

I wanted a Thursday departure this time around due to personal circumstances, but would have preferred a 9am departure! It's a bit of a bummer, but again - I'm complaining when i absolutely shouldn't be.

Does anyone know what times the coaches from Sheffield on the wednesday are due to be?

 

Also, where do they go from? The interchange or meadowhell?

"It usually goes from outside the Penny Black, next to the bus station" - this was from 2023 so ensure you check your email:

There was a spreadsheet / list where someone put together this info for each departure point....

If you're wondering what time you're likely to depart - Northern coach spots seem to be 5am > midday and coaches anecdotally fill up from booking order. So if you got in at 1801hrs expect early. Though they obviously juggle groups to fill coaches (so a couple might get on an earlier coach with two spares)... all of this is pure speculation but I've been on the See Tickets coaches about 5 times and it does seem to hold.

 

  NOTE - I've only ever gone from Manchester or Birmingham so can't vouch for the above!
