"Christ they still do roadshows?"

It's the first festival of the summer, gets the season underway.

And that's if you weren't being sarcastic

Reliably informed that ticketmaster released all three Swansea pots at the same time, resulting in a good proportion of tickets having been scooped up by Scousers...great for local businesses, not so great for local music fans

According to Radio 1, 60% of tickets are only released to "local people" when they do these weekends.

Out of 26,000 tickets 60% were available for residents of Swansea council, 25% for residents of CF, SA, NP and LD postcode I think and the last 15% for nationwide.

I’ve heard people had trouble getting tickets tickets but took me about 10 mins after selecting pot 2 and verifying by putting in my home address.

If only I had that luck on the lottery

Don’t buy any resold tickets they’re not transferable, you’ll lose your money and won’t get in to the event

Think it helped me by setting up ticketmaster account with address and payment card last Saturday. Took no time then come Monday.

Yep they’ll be checking ID of the purchaser of the tickets and you all have to go in together with the main ticket holder

There's plenty on The Gower (South Gower is best) but I like Nicholaston Farm. It's about 15 mins drive from Singleton Park, on a bus route if you don't want to drive to the big weekend but I doubt you could get one back late in the evening but check as they may have put on extra services. The campsite is 10 minutes walk from some of the best beaches and coast in the uk.
