winterbournered Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 So, coach tickets go on sale tomorrow with general on Sunday! Who’s going to be trying for the golden ticket? I wasn’t going to bother, got a lot going on next summer but the lure of the 50th anniversary will have me re-freshing like a madman on Sunday!

Coppello Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Hoping to get coach tickets tomorrow. It was an absolute ball ache going from London on the coach last year as the coach station was the O2. From there we went north and ended up going past Watford. I think it took 6 hours by the time we arrived, despite there being little traffic on site. With Worthy View priority being given to coach ticket holders, I'm hoping we get them early doors. I thought i'd add that i've been to Glastonbury a fair few times and last year we stayed in WV for the first time. It's completely ruined the festival for me as I now get chills thinking about camping with you riff raff. 23 minutes ago, AshtonGreat said: Nah, better off watching it on the box Have you been out of interest?

Coppello Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 2 minutes ago, AshtonGreat said: I haven't, no I'd recommend it. My Dad went for his 60th this year having never been to anything like it before. He's desperate to secure tickets for 2020. Admittedly the camping is a pain and not everyone likes crowds but in terms of entertainment, what you see on TV is only 20% of it. There really is something there for everyone.

Guest Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Coach sale sounded brutal. I know a group of 30 and not one of them got past the holding screen. So many people who’ve never been on my Facebook seemed to be trying this year too. Not getting hopes up for Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not getting hopes up for Sunday I've been fortunate that friends have managed to secure tickets in previous years but we had no luck on Thursday. I don't think I've even seen a holding page for about 5 years as it's never loaded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Team In Keynsham Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I got roped in to help my sister and niece try for tickets. 35 mins of staring at a holding page before the "sold out" message appeared on refresh. I guess they'll be changing their plans for next summer and mithering me for Euro tickets instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internetjef Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I lucked out massively. A mate got through for me after a couple of minutes, then I got through myself for first time in years after about 20 mins and got tickets for 6 others. Only got 12 out of our 30+ person group tho. Feeing very lucky personally, bit gutted most of regular gang have missed out. will chuck everything at the resale for those who missed out now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterbournered Posted October 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 I have no idea why but that was the best it’s been for me. Trying for 7 tickets for myself and friends on 2 iPads, both iPads went straight to holding page dead on 9! I was on that for about 10 mins then 1 went to booking page literally 2 seconds later the other went through also, 2 minutes later 7 tickets secured! Good luck to all in the re-sale!

I am a believer that you don't choose Glastonbury; Glastonbury chooses you. In the past I've been able to get through again after purchasing tickets. To those going - enjoy!

Lew-T Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Got through twice to the payment stage and both times it crashed. Disappointed but my luck with the resales is good.

Aggers71 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 I got six, well my boy got six tickets. My iPad got stage fright and froze. First time in five years we managed to get through. I thought I may have been blackballed for all the times I may or may not have jumped the fence before they put up they gurt big uns. On that point, it's made it much better without the gangs of scousers and mancs robing tents, the whole tent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't go to be a sheep and watch the stuff at the pyramid for three days.. I go to see my friends, find a whole new wave of music, art, etc all over the site. Oh and drink a wee bit on the way....
