Non camping tickets - a question (not the usual)

[efcfanwirral]

When we get there do we go and get weekend wristbands, or do we need to keep our tickets on us for both days? Always a risk if we need to keep them with us!!

If we get wristbands, are they from the usual wristband exchange or the day ticket queue?

I've only ever camped or done day tickets, so this non-camping weekend thing is new to me!

It's a weekend no camping wristband just a different color to your usual camping wristband, get it when you get there and keep it on all weekend...

Thanks! That's good, wouldn't trust myself with my ticket all weekend!

You don't get a wristband, you have to show your ticket both days. That's why it's got 2 tear off stubbs (one for each day)

This has been the case at Weston Park anyway, may be different at Hylands.

wonderful. Can imagine the Sunday ticket not making it through the Saturday!!

Oh I thought it was a wristband... My mistake.

Hylands is a wristband for non camping weekend . used to be tickets with a stub at each side but that was a nightmare. Guaranteed you would find Sunday tickets on the floor by the bus on the Saturday night as people got their bus tickets out and lost their festival tickets - wristbands now solves that problem

Yep for last few years the none camping weekend ticket for Weston has been a ticket with a tab on either end for daily entry.

Does make getting in a quicker process as you don't have to get a wristband and the entrance gate is normally quicker too

If you have been to other festivals or evrnts with a lanyard it's worth taking it to keep your day ticket in. Can fold it up and put it in the plastic lanyard bit and keep it safe round your neck, rather than risk it falling out if its in a pocket, wallet or purse. Think they sell them at stationary shops too

Ill just put it in my wallet. If I lose that I've got bigger problems, never have done at a festival so would be pretty unlucky if it happened this time!
