The "I'm going to Glastonbury 2023" thread

[TGCarr]

Still can't fucking process this morning.

 

Group of 3 of us trying. All got through numerous times at the start only for the 5min purchase to time out as it would'nt go any futher.

As it sold out, my mate said his mum got my ticket but not his as he wasnt in the group, felt so guiltu. Then another 5mins later his group got in and bought.

 

What a morning. 10 of us going. Beyond gassed.

 

Also fuck SeeTickets

That's the worse I've ever known it for trying to get tickets - bloodbath! Didn't think we had done it as payment crashed about 5 to 10 mins after it said it was sold out. However, £100 pending on my credit card and confirmation email received. My 15th Glasto. Already dreading the sale for 2024. Commiserations to those who didn't manage it, try in the resale - I managed to get into this year's on the resale after being thoroughly down about not having initial success.

I got my tickets at 10:32... half an hour after the sold out message. I  couldn't believe it. Before that I hadn't had a sniff of the registration page. Mental. After a 3 festival hiatus, Glastonbury number 7, I'm coming for you. 

[Acid Loafers]

One of the most stressful ones, with the amount of timeouts & typing details in & getting kicked.

This was the absolute worse. Money taken, but this page saying no & then another page saying yes.

Think I need a drink.

See you in the field x

Plenty of casualties in our group. Real mixed emotions vibes.

[ilovelanegan]

In, somehow. Delighted but bloody hell that was a binfire.

You get sorted?

[kaytee...]

I feel for anyone who should've had their tickets secured at the payment stage, it's proper gutting. I got mine in the coach sale but was trying for others today, didn't see the reg page until they put out the sold out message, got through and crashed again at the payment stage 😔

By the skin of our teeth - last minute of extra time.

How about you guys?

Good stuff. None of us no. But thats not unusual! April it is.

Order has been restored to the universe. Just 6 of 8 though and that ten minutes after sold out announcement - roll on that resale

[stuartbert two hats]

See you at the R&F 😎

[buddiepaul]

I got a couple of tries to enter the details around 9:30, but just spinning after hitting proceed, and them bombed out.  Just after the sold out messages started, my mate sent through a pic of the confirmation screen for 4 or us.  Exactly the same as in April, so we had to check he was not having us on before celebrating.  He did say he would not dare joke about something like that though.

Still got to try for some others in the resale, but we are all ecstatic.

[Lithoniel]

I managed to get through once, but at least 2 other full groups waiting.

on to the resale.

[Trunks1993]

I think they released the tickets in two batches. Got through about 9:20 and after entering all Regis’s and confirming all Regis it said all tickets are allocated……was a shit show but so happy for be attending my third on the bounce 

[kalifire]

Total carnage, that sale. I got through three times, one time couldn't get past the add registration page, the other two the payment screen froze and I just had to watch the 'tickets held' countdown tick to zero, totally unable to do anything because the page wouldn't respond.

Eventually someone else in my group got in about 15 minutes after it was "sold out", so I'm absolutely thrilled to be going back to the farm next June, but the entire experience was utter chaos.

[davefb]

Had nothing, until 10:10, then managed to get our group ! Feels weird, because we'd gone thru 'not got them this year'....

We had 8 groups of 6 and a singleton. We got 4 groups.

Was literally just messaging my friend to say it had sold out and she sent over the confirmation! We are going to Glastonbury!

Absolutely made up!

Delighted to hear this! Was really hoping you'd be successful.

I got ours after Seetickets had tweeted it was all sold out. We had 6 people on laptops and nobody got a sniff until I got in at the very death.

We know another group who had like 10 people trying and they didn't get anywhere near.

I thought the price rises and general economic stuff would calm it down, I was wrong.

Feel pleased and bad for those who missed out ☹️
 

We got through but see said allocation was all gone. A mate got through a good 20mins later and got the 5 we needed 🙂

[T-Mouse]

41 out of 64 for our operation today and Thurs. We will take it. 

[circus92]

Woooohoooooo!   Will be on the farm for a second time next year -  on cloud nine right now.  Got them after 10 when all hope seemed to be draining away.  Daughter was in tears with joy.

Congrats to all who were successful.  For everyone else keep the faith for the resales as there will be lots of help.

Absolute chaos as usual, the fact that tickets could still be bought long after See announced it was sold out caused a lot of confusion. I thought it was all over and then out of nowhere one of the girls in my group bags the ticket at about 10:30. Delighted to be going to my 5th on the trot, I feel very lucky.

We got 12 tickets after it sold out and were on payment for another 6 before it crashed. Totally mad. 

[Dan :D]

Absolutely ridiculous Morning, having had every type of possible misfortune ranging from payments timing out to having the registrations locked to constantly being kicked out, I was resigned to another resale

 

was only through reading on here that people were still getting through that we got the bit of luck needed, can’t believe it! 

[pdiddylive]

Not quite sure how it happened but we’re going to our first ever Glasto after trying for tickets for years! Genuinely didn’t think the booking website existed as I’ve never seen it until 10.05 today! 🥳

Beyond excited and see you on the farm in June 2023! x
