HELP ME PLEASE!!

I might have just made a really dumb mistake. Got my ticket just now on ticketmaster using the mams credit card, had to be for box office collection at this stage obviously. But the confirmation email says that only the credit card holder can pick up the ticket, and they must have the card with them. The parents are divorced so my mam has reverted to her maiden surname, which could make this worse again.

Can anybody tell me how strict they are on this? I put my name down for all but the credit card stuff, but the email also still says the ticket is addressed to my ma. Really having a freaker here... I've got the confirmation code, ID for if my name is on the ticket anywhere, can probably convince her to let me bring the card down... but there's no chance she'll be able (or willing!) to go down to pick it up.

Any suggestions? Losing my mind right now!

EDIT: don't know if it helps, but my ticketmaster account I booked it under is listed under my email address, which is my exact name (@hotmail).

You should be fine I'd say, I've often booked tickets for box office collection and can't remember ever having to hand over my credit card, just handing them the booking confirmation or even the confirmation number the odd time when I've forgotten the printout should work. They might just spot check credit cards.

rainbowdrop · 02-09-2010 10:53pm

As far as I know, you need to have the credit card the ticket was bought with, but you don't need to have the actual person who owns the credit card with you.

This is just going on experience from buying tickets to other gigs/festivals. Have never collected box office tickets at EP but I imagine it would be the same? Maybe somebody who has can tell you more?

Good luck, I'd say you'll be fine if you have your Ma's credit card with you....

*EDIT* Deep breaths Billy, deep breaths:pac:

Anyone tried printing off the maps from the EP website? The arena site plan isn't a PDF document, its a JPG, so when I printed it out its less than half the size of an A4 page! Tiny!! Can't read it at all, add a few beers to that and I'll def be lost at the wkend! The other maps (camping site plan etc) are PDF and print out full size of A4 page so its all rosey there.

Any ideas how to get a bigger map??

P.S. packing is not my strong point..

H8GHOTI · 03-09-2010 12:10am

Here's the pdf:

Thanks! No excuse for getting lost now

I'm gonna be getting a lift down off someone who isn't staying, where's the best place to be dropped off to keep the walk as short as possible.

Hey, anyone know how long of a walk it is from the car park to the campsites??

Tusky · 03-09-2010 12:50am

Just booked the 11:00 train from Hueston but worrying that we will be there too early. How long does it take on total travelling by train + shuttle ?

We're leaving Limerick at 7.30. You will not be early.
