Not sure what I'll do with myself when Coldplay are on, probably a bit of Wordle and catching up on emails.

I've seen everyone who I have ever wated to see at Glasto going back to 1994 so in my experience, and I stress this is for me, if I dont like the headliners , the undercard may not appeal that much. May not be the case for you, but has been the case for me. I've been enough times to know what else is on. For  £350 if I wouldnt pay £100 to see each of the headliners on their own, means I really need to like a lot of the others, which in some years hasnt been the case - and in most cases I have probably seen them elsewhere anyway

Yeah I’m more relaxed with doing both sales .. that gives me 4 chances overall . Although I’m firmly sticking with my town as departure point otherwise logistically things become much harder . 

Definitely with you on that one. I've gotten coach tickets in various sales and resales over the years, but always for others in our group, never for myself. However, after missing out last year, I'm firmly in the giving myself 4 chances boat! Don't really mind where from, Bristol easiest for me, but Bath, Cardiff and even London work fine, really though, at this stage anywhere will do...I'd even settle for a Thursday coach!

What a day for my Virgin internet to be coming an going 🥴

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a coach ticket and collect at box office?

Want to take campervan, but with the way our groups are in terms of bus/driving, it would pay off to go for a coach ticket

If you book a coach ticket, then the system won't let you buy a van ticket.

Aside from which, don't be a dick.

Making massive buying groups with internet forum strangers  - perfectly acceptable

Joining your mates group for coach tickets but trying to take your campervan - being a dick

Buying a coach ticket you have no intention of using? Absolutely being a dick. By any standard, no matter how you try and justify it.

By your standard, not by any standard. 

Let me ask, if I buy a ticket for a coach from a city I don't live in, am I being a dick? What about the people that live there missing out?

Most people want the ticket, the coach is a means to an end. 

If I buy a coach ticket and stay with someone else in a campervan, am I also a dick or is that ok? What's your moral issue, that I don't travel there by coach?

Any tips on how to travel down from Falkirk, assuming you are from Ayrshire! 🤣

planning on attempting to get any coach ticket I can, problem being the missus gets travel sick.  But sure I could enjoy the coach Atmos and she can sleep!

Never used coaches before but if you are then I assume any from Scotland would suit you. Don’t be choosy, for example Edinburgh only, just go for any available. Worry about how to get to the coach later! Plenty of travel sick remedies!

There’s also someone that organises a minibus on here from Glasgow I think but they usually post closer to the festival if they have space … can’t recall username at the moment . But that’s a Sunday ticket job

If you intend to use the ticket, no problem.

If you don't, then don't buy it.

It's not that difficult.

I know anxiety levels are high amongst folk desperate for tickets but I’ll bet that see tickets are also pretty anxious that things go without a hitch after all the registration problems.

There are already folk on Facebook saying they checked their registrations in September and got a confirmation email and now their registrations are missing!

I've got a feeling this isn't going to be smiles all round!
