    Jesus Christ - am not impressed with the organisers of this at all. I've asked a few times when the tickets are due to go on sale and havent received as much as a '**** off' back. I've seen where loads of others have asked too but have been ignored. Found out the dates through here - they've yet to update their social media with the 2017 dates (still have last year's up).

    Hmm. Not great.

    "Early Bird" price is now €135...

    Major price inflation each year these days.

    It'll be €195 full whack to attend.

    Closing in on EP prices

    Anyone know if you can pay in installments with the pre sale code?

    Got my code today as well. It is quite an increase from last year and previous years, I definitely got my tickets 2 or 3 years ago for around €100, did I imagine them being as low as €80 at one stage?! Still though, worth the money definitely! I will probably pick up two tomorrow. I'd say the tier 1s will sell out extremely quick but hopefully they don't sell out before Friday when they go on sale to the public. Hoping for an improved line up this year if they are charging everyone a decent whack more for the tickets.

    Would anyone have a spare code going? If so, a PM with it would be very much appreciated.

    Have my own one sorted, but I seem to be the only one in my group that got organised and pre-regged :angry:

    Just got my ticket there, they are print out tickets this year rather than physical tickets, zero hassle compared to using ticketmaster.

    Much, much better process than Ticketbastard, but I did notice they wanted the names printed on each ticket - I'm wondering, does that preclude resales?

    Probably just for presale. It's not that easy to ditch TM

    Such greed. Increasing the capacity to uncomfortable levels, changing the genre of most of the acts to cheap techno etc. Four years ago I saw eighteen of the best gigs I've ever seen for eighty quid. B&S has had its day.

    Nevermind, seems you can change the names via the Ticketbooth account page after purchase.

    €5 service charge per ticket is a bit much though, especially seeing as they don't even have to post out hard copies!

    The specificity of the number 18 begs the question..
    List please :)

    It probably is, but isn't Ticketmaster up in the double-digits for service charges nowadays?

    The spiel for this year is that they are reducing capacity

    Can anyone who previously availed of glamping options, either Silk Road or LPM Bohemia, give an idea as to the quality of the boutique campsites and the size of the tents?

    Tier 1 sold out in less than 15 mins, I'd say they had very few at that price:

    That's my point, Tier 1 have been onsale to presale folks since yesterday. And the presale codes were easy to get.

    Not really that easy, you had to be signed up before a certain day to get the code, and they didn't make that clear. And limit of 2 per person.
    So they wouldn't have been flying out until the general sale this morning
    As opposed to other years, no presale, and you could get 4 at a time.
