I think there's still a few left (link still works) but I expect there'll be a big rush for the remainder once everyone gets paid....

I don't forget those amazing 'extra' tickets that they tend to find down the back of the sofa a month before the event.

I bought another ticket at the weekend and my order number was under 6000

do you think that the new ticket price really has driven people away?

That's order number 6000, though, not ticket number 6000.

I'd have thought most people were buying at least two tickets per order - and they can buy up to five in one order.

Ah crap, didn't think about that

I think a lot of people are going elsewhere this year. I think it is a combination of; price, vagueness of location and line up, plus the fact that there are a lot of other small festivals this year.... I think they will sell all the tickets, but it is obvious that they are not flying out in the same way they did last year, which must be causing some concern seeing there is no Glastonbury this year, so if I was an organiser I would have expected the tickets to go in a couple of days.

I really did think they would sell as fast as Glastonbury does!

Ummm, am I the only one who's completely chilled about all this then?

If I were any more chilled I'd be a penguin!!

it just seems a bit odd that last year they sold out pretty darn quick but this year they still have some left!!

Although that sort of is a good thing as I wouldn't have been able to get another this weekend if they had

Wasn't the full line-up released before tickets went on sale last year?

There are also more of them going on sale, the weather's still shit which means most people's minds still aren't looking ahead to summer yet and yeah, maybe the price is putting some people off. Who knows? *shrug*

I actually don't think they're far off from selling out the tickets, some people are waiting until pay day etc. And actually, I'd love it if the festie stayed small.

But there was a big buzz about the festival last year which seems to be lacking this year...... and I think the lack of an official forum has not helped.

I think you guys are just reading too much into everything. Seriously, dudes.

Maybe.

I'm totally chilled about there still being tickets left as some of my mates are struggling for funds. I think people are put off by the price and by the fact they haven't announced the line up. I bet if the line up was announced then the tickets would have flown by now.

Excellent points there, dd!

Well i got my ticket just the otherday, and i noticed posts going back into November as of last year!

How many tickets is there this year? I heard somewhere 10'000, is this correct?

Hmmm, the ticket thread might have started back then (think that was about the email people got back then, that was all) but tickets didn't go on sale until 13 March. I should know, one of our party got numero uno.

Out of interest, what was your order number?

Mine is 5050

Bloody hell.
Still its gonna be hard to sell tickets this year, what with having your name on them.
Not gonna effect me though, ive got mine.
