Coach Tickets 2025

Howdy, despite being somewhere over Canada, got through pretty early but...hit a snag. Don't use Firefox at all usually (so unfamiliar with settings), but did for the sale and whenever I put our reg numbers in, it got stuck on this (got through on about 6 different sessions, each ran in to the same problem). Anyone have any idea how to get rid of this before the general sale on Sunday! Pressing cancel or resend didn't do anything...on one of the sessions it went away for a split second, but came straight back. Rather frustrating to be in the site (this was about 18.05) but not able to proceed past putting reg numbers in!

Wow I managed to get a ticket from Taunton on the Thursday.  That is the third time I have got lucky in the resale, though first time I have needed to get one for myself.   I am so happy as I love the line up.

 

I am in shock.

Bosh nice one . You need parking give me a shout

And you got one from Taunton ? 

I tried the Taunton route and got as far inputting card details but it wouldn't proceed any further! Thanks for the tip though as all the others had no availability, so near yet so far!😵‍💫

Commiserations first.  Secondly don't beat yourself up over the tech stuff.  With the new queuing system there is no simple way to 'get around' it, and pretty much the only way to get a better chance is to have as many devices and queue sessions as possible each with a separate queue position.

 

Seen it mentioned last year, and anecdotal evidence today bears it out, that there looks to be about a 1 in 40 chance of getting a booking page.  Not great odds admittedly but if you have 4 devices then that drops to 1 in 10, and if 2 of you have 4 devices each then you're down to 1 in 5.  For the main sale where you can buy 6 tickets you'd only need 6 people with 7 devices (or 7 sessions) each to be in with a pretty good chance.  And this isn't fixed either....you could always get lucky with less, or even a single device.

 

Keep positive, get some mates, family, children etc each with a couple of devices and go again on Sunday.

 

May the ticket Gods go with you.

I got one from Truro a minute or two after this was posted on the queue page. Some people will drop out, so if that's a deal breaker you can always try.

In 2022 our group got tickets 30 minutes after the sold out!

Managed to nab one return coach ticket from Glasgow.  Couldn’t believe my eyes when the green bars on my phone started going up and everything else was stuck on the two green bars of doom! Absolutely buzzing now. Can only imagine the coach for that distance will

be interesting! 😂

Fortunately I’m from Glasgow- I was bracing myself for availability and where I would be prepared to drive to to catch a coach (may well have done Truro if I had to!). Got in early And there seemed to be decent availability, but probably helped that I was only looking for one ticket.

At this stage I would have taken a Friday to Sunday ticket. I tactically went for Thursday to give me more chance and @Crazyfool01 introduced me to the idea going from Taunton, even though I'm from Manchester! 

Tried Wednesday, lucky I had my list of departure points already prepped and worked through them quickly and determined nothing was available. Quickly switched to Thursday and got my first choice departure point.

Ooof interested to know how that goes! I've thought about getting the overnight coach down before, but you really need to ensure you can sleep well on a bus!

Yes it's been my lucky way of doing this. I've been successful 3 times in the resale from here.

 

Just need to know the coach time now! 

I also got coach tickets from Taunton. Although I’m not far from Bristol so slightly easier for me. Every other coach option I checked was sold out when I got through
