Rock Ness fans urged to 'Go Green' and save money on tickets

Following the sell-out in a day of early bird value £99 tickets, Rock Ness have launched a 'Go Green' initiative offering free coach travel with early bird tickets.

Ticket buyers can now enjoy free coach travel from all major cities in the UK to next year's event held at the edge of Loch Ness, Scotland on Friday 10th to Sunday 12th June 2011. From as little £135 (£125 Student ticket) music fans the length and breadth of the country can use coach travel and choose to 'Go Green', saving the planet as well as their cash.

For travellers from Glasgow or Edinburgh, that means the event ticket is costing only £105. The further attendees of the Highland bash travel, the more they're saving, with the cost of a weekend ticket for London-based Rock Ness fans costing as little as £75 for a ticket in real terms.

Rock Ness organisers have also confirmed that Friday and Saturday Main Stage headliners have now been booked, with negotiations at an advanced stage for Sunday's illustrious Main Stage slot.

Speaking about the next phase, festival Director Jim King said "The response to the launch has simply been incredible. The system crashed and we sold out the 3,000 special '99' tickets in a day which exceeded all expectations. To cope with continued demand we have now had to go straight into launching the Early bird ticket and signs are these too are being snapped up fast. We would urge people to avoid delay in securing their great value Early Bird. For only £135 they can get a 3 day ticket including camping plus free coach travel from all major cities across the UK. For some lucky people this means the actual ticket is even cheaper than the £99 offer. Oh and students even get a discount!

Approximately 80% of harmful emissions from festivals come from car travel and whilst it might look good for us to throw up the odd windmill here and there, the positive impact of this is marginal when compared to the improvements we can make by cutting car travel.

To help our customers make the transition from car to coach we've come up with this amazing early bird offer and want as many people to 'Go Green' and travel free from any major city in the UK at our expense.

Rock Ness will also be fully endorsing car share schemes to help people who have no choice but to come by car reduce their carbon footprint, and there will be car parking offers available nearer to the show."
