    Marlay Park is a tad bit bigger than the Olympia

    Seems much easier than expected to get tickets.

    I thought with the amazing addition of the Pixies these would be impossible to get but it was a piece of p*ss.

    It might sell out by the end of the day, if not it'll be next week.

    Well that was torturous.

    Very true, still I would have thought it would have sold out this morning. It's a pretty sweet deal for €61ish.

    If the tickets went on sale in the middle of March maybe.

    But < 2 weeks before Christmas? Everyone is broke!

    ha, I was just thinking where I'm going to make some cuts to cover this, good point

    Couldn't believe how easily I sauntered on to the website and picked up tickets. Delighted.

    Outdoor gigs in Ireland very rarely sell out within the first few days on ticket release anymore.

    In and out in 2 minutes, after missing out on tickets to the Pixies last month I can't wait!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,390 ✭✭✭Bowlardo

    Not yet.

    Just got my tickets. AF and the Pixies are literally my two favourite bands currently performing so this is just too good to miss. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 325 ✭✭flashforward


    Got 3 tickets but when I chose my delivery type it would only allow me to post the tickets, the e option kept telling me there was an issue.

    Anyone else have this problem?
    Anyway I can get the online ticket as this is for a Christmas present?

    Same thing happened me earlier on so I was choosing post, but when I was entering payment details I got timed out and had to start from scratch. This time it let me choose e-tickets. I was delighted coz one of mine is a pressie as well. Try logging out and back in and it might work for you!

    Guess this means they're not sold out?

    30,000 capacity, same weekend as Glasto. I doubt they'll sell out in one day.

    Bought my tickets. Should be a great gig. Didn't even think about any extra support until now but could easily be another v good band playing

    Either of those acts would be super!

    Both would be incredible!

    The National are too big to play 3rd these days . Interpol could do it

    Just love interpol. Was watching them earlier on youtube. Love "Evil" and "Slow Hands"

    Would love them to play Marley Park!!!!

    Got my tickets yesterday. June 29th can't come soon enough!!!! It's going to be an epic gig!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,646 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    One small minus about Interpol though.............

    Personally speaking I'm gonna disagree with this, I've seen them live a few times now and always enjoyed it!

    Am going to disagree as well. I've seem them 3 times. Maybe, the last time it wasn't their best show (in The Olympia) but the two times before that were class.

    The first time was in Oxegen a good few years ago. They was just a class gig. It was my first time and so I excited to see them and they delivered for me.

    There is no chance of Interpol being added to this. The ticket price is set at a gig level not a day festival level and any additions will reflect that. At best you might get an up and coming international act added but most likely it'll be a couple of local bands (not at all a bad thing).

    Yea could see someone like Hozier being added or Walking on Cars/Little Green Cars
