I really should read the T's & C's 😔

Thanks for the update

I'm sure they wouldn't be picky about arranging something really... At worse cancel your tickets and give someone a chance in the resale.

The tour of the festival in the weeks before is quite a nice one (if you can get there of course)

"Details of how to obtain the Glastonbury Registration number will be provided to the winners"

So there's definitely no requirement to have one now, just need to create one if/when you win.

"The Prize winners will be notified by email and/or first-class post within 5 days of the Draw Date"

Make sure your check your spam!

 

You can definitely enter someone else's name by post if you wanted to. Give their contact details.

Ok stupid question alert … for those that have tickets is it still possible to enter … your registration will be required I presume but will already be in use … I know you can cancel the previously brought ones in time . 
 

also presume they aren’t transferable so can’t buy for someone else ? 

Expires in ten days, so you would think they'd let you know you've won before April 1st.

Just don't pay your balance if you win.

And set up another reg I guess as a backup ? It’s more the fact the reg I have would already be in use

Probably wouldn't need to do that.

Pretty sure the festival would have prepared for the likelihood that an existing ticketholder wins. Makes no difference to them as the original ticket just goes back into the resale pot.

Indeed … I’m entering anyway .. the cause is one I’d not yet donated to so it makes sense from purely that angle 

[broken monkey]

Entered the draw. Great cause even if we don't win. Love that the festival always have their fingers on the pulse when in comes to helping those much less fortunate than ourselves.

[clarkete]

Seems a great idea to do it as a crowd funder - plenty of people will enter for the prizes, but some others can chuck in a few quid simply to support a great cause. 

[oneeye]

Entered, gotta be in it to win it, and a great cause as always 

[mufcok]

Probably a daft question, but I assume that March 8th close date stays the same regardless of how many entries they get? (wanna do it when I get paid, ideally)

Must be, surely the goal is as much money as possible!

might still be some of those rich people buying up tickets ... but now at least theres a chance now

[Hugh Jass II]

Does it matter who is buying them if it's going to charity?

[Zoo Music Girl]

Fuck it, I'm in. If I can save the ticket money all good and it's a great cause.

There was a lot of debate about auction vs raffle in the first place as the very wealthy already have a lot of advantages in trying to find alternative ways into Glastonbury if they don't get tickets in the normal way so yes it doesn't matter from the charities perspective but in terms of normal people having opportunities to access the same prizes and experiences I think a raffle does feel more Glastonbury and I for one am glad that they have done a raffle that for a much more modest price gives everyone a chance of winning these unique experiences.
