    I know this is normally a bit of a rip off but with this deal that is €30 for two people, you get entry (worth more than that alone), so called fast track entry and then €15 in credit each to buy food and drinks so essentially entry, fast track and accessing the VIP area is free.

    You just have to pay with a MasterCard.

    Note Priceless is MasterCard's offers site so this is legit.

    good spot OP, basically free entry and your money used to spend on food. Think I might book it.

    Anyone knows how it works if you want to buy more food, do they still do that made up currency thing that you cant get unspent money back on?

    Did you get your tickets when you paid please? I'm not sure how priceless works and you have to wait or not.

    I paid but just got a confirmation of my payment.

    Cheers

    Yup, as the OP i just received our tickets too, was only wondering this morning.

    Check you got both pdfs if you booked for two people, mine only had one, emailed and they will send the other shortly.

    Just got it as well. The only concern it says, "The Barcode only allows one entry per scan" & I only received one ticket.

    They apologised and said the second ticket will come today.

    Not sure if you'll need to email them too or they'll do everyone.

    Reading the FAQs, I'm trying to figure something out. I got the two tickets for myself and my adult daughter, however I want to bring my son (8). It says under 10s are free but also doesn't give an option to purchase a ticket for him. Does this mean he doesn't need a ticket and can just wander up with myself and my daughter with these two tickets?

    I don't know but they reply to emails really quickly, or you could tweet them. Ask the question, both times I've mailed them they've responded within an hour event hough their automated response initially says 2 to 3 business days.

    I went last night, glad I didnt pay an entry fee. Was good but free entry even better.

    The Mastercard seating area is just seats....looked on jealousy to those with a free bar in the massive EY tent (and Hagen Das area by the looks).

    Was there Saturday.

    It was a great event, apart from some of the totally pissed attendees.

    Agree with not having to pay an entry fee.

    Surprised at the prices of meals and drinks. This should be an event for food vendors to promote themselves and gain customers and hence sell stuff at a lower price.

    €7 for a small starter (dumplings)

    €10 for a glass of wine

    €14 for a lobster roll

    Etc, etc

    It all adds up. One has to arrive with a strong bank account.

    At least they did away with the credit/voucher system and one could just tap to pay.

    Some good bands playing as well.

    Yeah I found the cost of the food was horrendous and alot of very drunken people at it. I was there Saturday evening. Myself and the two kids sat in the MasterCard wearing area and one of the works from the bewleys van gave us some free hot chocolates. Absolutely made the kids day!
