Benicassim ticket sales

[lizziethomp]

Its just been announced that 20,000 had been sold, was just wondering does anyone know how many there are to be sold, like whats the capacity?

Can't get my ticket for another two weeks just worried they'll sell out, thanks!

It's a mission trying to find out the capacity actually, I don't think I got a response when I asked!! Basically, it works out at about 37000 from what I can make out - although it says 150000, that seems to be the total over the 4 days.

I got the willies and booked mine on my credit card coz I didn't want to miss out (don't get paid for another month) Reckon you'll be ok in 2 weeks though, keep checking SeeTickets and Lastminute, then if one sells out you'll know you need to get in fast!!

Hiya there was 38 000 people at the festival last year and the festival site has a cappacity of 50 000. Saying that the area is so large the local council wouldnt mind allowing another 10 000.

But for reasurance will be best to get as soon as possible.

Do you have to buy the tickets from one of the British distributors?

or can you buy from the othe reuropean ones, as they seem cheaper

I ordered mine from Germany by accident, and apparently that was ok. But seetickets do say that their tickets are for people in the UK only, so i guess it varies from country to country.

Don't forget though, you need foreign postage added onto your order, and most banks will charge a 3% comission for use of your card in a foreign country, which generally gets rid of any saving you might see. Also if anything goes wrong, or you don't get your tickets, you could spend half an hour on the phone to the continent (as i found out when ordering my tickets from Germany, via ticketmaster.co.uk).
