    Re Sold out...Is it worth calling into the ticketmaster outlets themselves e.g tickettron in tallaght or are they all tied into the main ticketmaster database?

    I know my local ticketmaster outlet used to have them pre-printed (Not EP specifically, but gigs & sporting events) in the past.

    All 35,000 tickets have been snapped up for next weekend's 10th anniversary festival. While we can't guarantee this by any stretch of the imagination, in years of Picnics past they have made a handful of tickets available in the days before the festival so all may not be lost just yet.

    Right folks dont panic offering e400 on done deal or gumtree just yet!

    I wonder did it happen at all I'd be a bit suspect of anyone that spells their name First name wrong. Could she just be fishing fora free ticket, gig etc at EP?

    This did happen, i know the girl and she's absolutely gutted. She's a singer/song writer so she vented the only way she could by writing a song about it!

    Did she go to the guards? I know they've probably bigger fish to fry but if someone shafted me out of 200+e I'd def try to pursue them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,023 ✭✭✭hairyfairy00


    Don't think so, i did say to her that she should contact them. As well as being pissed off, i think she's slightly embarrassed for being too trusting.

    Any idea if there is normally ice for sale anywhere in the Oscar Wilde campsite?


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,545 ✭✭✭✭bodhrandude

    So with 7 days away I thought I'd share my checklist. Please inform me if there's anything worth adding

    Tent
    Wellies (http://www.festiweather.com/forecast.asp?EventID=274&Event=Electric+Picnic+2013#.Uhd4DdKbN69) Not worth the risk leaving them out, even though festiweather says we're in the all clear
    Cans (lovely cans)
    Baby Wipes
    Black Bags,
    Inflatable Pillow
    Hot Water bottle (don't knock it till you've tried it)
    Berocca

    If you need a perk up each morning, then yes. That's my festival pro tip. But a coffee from one of the stands will probably do the exact same thing!

    You can get cheap "B-Active" in Tesco for about €2.50 and they're the same thing. They can only help with the hangover!

    Just to be nerdy, pretty sure alcohol actually cools you down and that ''beer jacket'' stuff isn't true! :P
