It's usually the first Sunday in October and it always clashes with the Great Scottish Run later on that morning (which means I'm either on cloud nine and loving life for 13 miles or absolutely pissed off that I never got a ticket). 

I reckon it'll be the 2nd October this year. 

It's actually coach tickets that are first, the first Thursday in October. And the main sale the following Sunday. So 6th and 9th.

Really hope not; that's London Marathon day.

It'll be the week after. As said, Coach first Thursday or October, tickets first Sunday.

Crazy to think that only a few years back they only sold tickets a couple months before fest. Now everything has to be booked so far in advance.

Not really a few years back, those two years were a biip.  As per @Gnomicide it's been very swift for ages now.

I mean, I confirmed it wouldn't be in the first reply to this thread. Literally the first response made it clear when the sale date would be, and there's been more than a page of debate since...

It wasn’t a slight on you!

And then in 1986 we had the amazing storm on the Saturday that turned the Cure set into something truly spectacular, esp under the influence of LSD.

i was there for that storm, was fabulous, wannit?

Brilliant, The Cure couldn't have devised a better light show.

I've no memory of what they were like or even how fat Robert Smith was, but I do remember the lazers on the rain drops.

There are definitely patterns on sale dates and balance deadline day but I'm still saying no on announcements which is the whole raison d'être for The Thingy.

Thanks everyone for weighing in on this. Putting the eggs in the Oct 6 and 9 basket

Ahhh, I never thought about the fact that the Coach tickets would then be on sale in Sept, if it was 2nd October!

Yea was my first. It was one of the wettest ever, and all I had was a sleeping bag, no tent. I basically lived in the acoustic tent, something you couldn't do these days.

Mine too!

To be pedantic it'll be the second Sunday of October if it follows the first Thursday of October.
