Download Festival - June 11 (Donington Park, UK)

[Judge Dredd]

Any update on day tickets?



/jarmo

According to the Download site, tickets are selling faster than any previous year, so this may mean there will be less day tickets available as I'm sure there will be some sort of limit of people they can have in the arena.

And Avenged Sevenfold have been added to the bill and are strongly rumoured to be appearing on GN'R Sunday.

is there a que you can join online for day tickets or something or is it first come first served

[Evolution]

First come first served.

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

 

First come first served.

sooooooooooo goin to have to get me a weekend ticket

[GNR_Green]

Got my ticket!!!! 

I'm well up for it, my first festival and what a festival it should be!  Plenty of great bands and topping the lot the mighty GN'R.  Hopefully my friends I'm going with will see the light and stop criticising my taste in GN'R when they've been blown away by them.

Well, it looks like I probably won't be going anymore. I hate A-levels.

Fuck em Dont Do them youve got the rest of your life ahead of you 

if its any consilation i may try to record the show for everyone but it will be very amaturish whats peoples thoughts for best viewing, record the stage live or record the Video Screen (aka Leeds 02)

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

RE: if its any consilation i may try to record the show for everyone but it will be very amaturish whats peoples thoughts for best viewing, record the stage live or record the Video Screen (aka Leeds 02)

dunno, mate. depends how close you get and how good a view really. advantages obviously to filming the screen but depends whether they have all those unecessary clips of politics and cars and stuff like at leeds.

[Chris Misfit]

I dunno if I'll be going either Jim, so fear not.

I've seen GNR and Metallica, but I haven't seen Cocksparrer and Sham69, so the HiTS fest is lookin' good.

I'll try to go though, even if just for the Cathedral day.

[Jim]

Oh. Well then I wouldn't have bothered anyway.

Maybe next year.

[DazRose85]

I'm booked and ready to go

[MR W,AXL ROSE]

if anyone hears anything about daytickets,please pm me ASAP 

[slashisvr]

im a massive gnr fan i love them i grew up listening to them, but im not going to download, because i am not paying however much it is just 2 c one band i like, and that one band might not even turn up, u cant rely on axl's word!!!

[anythinggoes]

ah well bit the bullet ive just booked my weekend ticket even though ill be in Ireland Friday ill still get the Sat and Sun shows see you all there



Edit: anyone else coming back from Ireland who wants a lift up to Donnington on Saturday give us a shout plenty of room well for another 4 people anyhow im on the 6.30 am Flight

[babydolls]

still no word on day tickets guys.  I've been on the message boards for Download and it seems lots of people feel the same way - not everyone is able to go for a full weekend and there is a lot of interest for news on day tickets.  Most think they will be available late april/early may and cost around ?60 per day.

I got a weekend ticket (i panicked!) - its a lot of cash, but its the only time i can see GnR this year, so wasnt going to miss out. not a chance! will post any more news if i find out more.   

[blaqktiger]

I wish Download would hurry up.. I can't wait much longer!!!

[Festah]

Ill be there from wednesday getting as pissed as possible  as long as i dont miss gnr n metallica itll be great 

[cyllan]

For anyone still hesitating between buying a weekend ticket for Download and waiting for the day tickets, this may be of some use. According to the Download official site forum, you can get 2 for 1 weekend tickets at Ticketmaster if either you or someone you know works for Pedigree Petfoods or Mars. I'm not sure how it works but I guess you have to enter a promotion code or something similar.

Either way we should know about day tickets within the next 3 weeks or so.

The running order is almost complete, and we now know which bands are playing when:-

And nope, still no news on day tickets.

My tip for the 'Special Guest' slot on GN'R Sunday:-

The Cult.
