Coach Tickets 2024

0630h departure from Brum is pretty smashing. It's been a few years since I did the coach, but I think there's only one or two max. before that.

 

Return is 0400h on the Monday morning, so a decision will need to be made between: there's nothing spectacular for me after 3am, so I'm cooked; I'll book a separate coach home; I'll blag it a bit later at PGA.

 

But that's bloody great news!

We did the 4am return to Brum last year and honestly it was great. Had everything waiting in lock ups for us so partied at Lonely Hearts until around 2, half 2 and then set off for the queue

Absolutely - I've done a 4am pick up from lock-up before and it was quite magical walking up to PGA past Silver Hayes and seeing the festival very gently wind down.

Thursday Manchester departure at 6am! Pretty chuffed, although no Return slot even though it says Return ticket 🤔 Anyone else had this?

how easy is the blag on return coaches? Accidentally booked 2am return in a blind panic on the m25 on T-day. I won’t be making that coach for sure.

I had no issue getting on to an earlier bus than I had specified on my ticket. Might be different if you have missed a coach I supposed but they just want to get everyone off the site ASAP on Monday.

We got on a later one a few years back. They don’t usually check tickets in my experience

Some people on Twitter mentioning the same issue with missing return times.

they'll sort it .... for now id imagine most people arent overly bothered .... arrival time  is most important .... is amazing though as they've had a good few months to get the bulk sorted and its not like its a new process

Usually pretty chill, I had a Reading Return one year and got a coach back to Manchester fine, have also got earlier coaches before.

Not sure if this is right topic to ask but.

 

A friend of mine is selling his ticket to someone else, its a Wednesday coach ticket but the person who wants to buy the ticket can’t go until Thursday. Are coach tickets which aren’t collected on allocated coach time handed back in to the box office on site or must you get on the coach time given to get access to the festival? Thank you 🙏🏼

Got our coach times - leaving Liverpool at 11:00 on Wednesday and return 12:00 Mon (first time getting coach). Does anyone know how long it usually takes from Liverpool?

Ive done 2:30, 4:30 and 07:00 from Liverpool. All take 4 and a half hours or so.
