I just had a call from a fund-raiser trying to sign me up to a monthly donation. She twice said "good luck with the tickets" in acknowledgement of how they got my details. Am I still in with a chance? I had that call earlier too! The geezer I spoke to said the same, whether it's BS or not, who knows? He was a nice chap, though, so I signed up to a £10 a month DD, figured is worth helping Greenpeace prove the value of running competitions to generate sign-ups!

bigchoc Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 I had the call too and he phrased it as though it wasn't drawn yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy92 Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Got a call too. I’m 100% certain they’ll have drawn it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Zepplin Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 They must have drawn it. It is so late to let people know they have tickets though. Don't get me wrong if they called me up I would be going but would need to sort out time off work, a cat sitter, hire a people carrier, kids brought out of school last minute, sort out my tent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be missing my first Glastonbury since 97 and I am gutted ! Failed in the main sale. Failed in the re-sale. No joy with all the volunteering. No joy with competitions. Time for a cringy begging letter to the Eavis is my last and only hope 😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillieBobs Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Hi friends 👋 Sorry not posted on the thread for a while but I’ve been checking in to see how you’re all getting on. I’m so so so sorry for those of you still without tickets. I really thought with the effort everyone has made we’d all be there. A positive to take away is the invaluable friendship we all have. Seeing everyone sharing codes, votes and helping each other out is the true Glasto spirit. It’s heartbreaking….f**king soul destroying you all can’t be there but we’ve made friends for life in this thread and one fine day we’ll all toast a drink on the farm. Sending love, hugs and positive vibes to you all….f**k it I’ll go as far to say I love you all and thank you for always having each others backs. Stay cool everyone and one fine day we’ll all be on the farm xxxx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelin Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 My oncologist yesterday asked if I was going to Glastonbury this year and I didn’t cry, although I did ask him if he had any connections😀😀. I did say I’m saving myself for next year and he never said don’t bother yourself so I’ll take that. Honestly, I wouldn’t even contemplate it if I won now. However this has been a beautiful thread and I have a good feeling we will all be lucky in October if we all pull together. Thanks so much for the thread. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it includes VIP tickets. It's not for me, real camping is a must for me for any festival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incident Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 2 hours ago, Lucy92 said: Anyone got any recommendations for other festivals to consider this year? The answer to this is always "what do you like about Glastonbury?" The problem is that there's plenty festivals that do bits of Glastonbury as well or in some cases better. But nothing else has everything. Personally I'd say to check out Shambala and see if that interests you. It's not for everyone, and especially it's not for the "shuttle between the Main Stages chasing the lineup" crowd, but for the people who could happily spend all festival south of the railway track then it's a lovely festival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy enough camping with the riff raff but I wouldn't be turning it down if i won 😆 Is it legit? Is anyone going to enter? I am tempted..
