sparkysmum Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 My lovely younger son Ant managed to get a day ticket for TITP (£70) He left at dawn and got a lift up with some friends who are camping. At the entrance Ant said that he had a day ticket and wasn't camping so the gate person went to get her supervisor. Result - Ant has to wait OUTSIDE the park until 4pm whilst his friends who are camping have full access to the arena. I'm Ant is a bit more philosphical & at least it's dry for the mo.

Chucky Mama Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 What a shame A bit of leeway and goodwill wouldn't have gone amiss would it I hope the weather is kind to them and that they have a good evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'm assuming the Day Ticket was for that day? Surely a Day Ticket means you get the whole day at the venue? That seems really mean . Is the music only on at night (never been, so a tad ignorant )? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 What a shame he wasn't allowed in with his friends I would be angry too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleTree Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 It normally says on your ticket what time the main arena open & usually people who are camping aren't allowed in until then, but obviously they still have access to the campsite and any stalls/foody things that are set up in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 Cheers He will hopefully be able to meet up with his friends later & he will have a great day/evening/night but I'm just sorry that he's having to spend 7 hours outside a locked gate in the mean time. As c/m said a wee bit of goodwill & everyone would have been happy. Anyway at least the sun is shining for them now. Thanks folks.
