Just for comparison purposes I’ve just bought a 4 day Warwick Fest ticket plus camping ticket for £190.


And Richard Thompson is headlining


Thanks for mentioning Warwick. We're probably going to give the post-Towersey fest a miss this year and I haven't seen RT in ages. And glamping in the Knight's Village looks fun.  Smiley

aplogies if tyhis is the wrong board/thread - admins feel free to move somewhere more appropriate if needed.

anybody know how much a one day ticket was at Brasenose last year?  For personal reasons we are unlikely to make Croppers this year but one day to see GazB, 3 daft monkeys, SDP etc is just about feasible, but it is very much down to how much a 1 day ticket is likely to be.

Fairport have announced that Cropredy is down to the "last few hundred" tickets on FB today.

I saw that, along with the statement, 'When they're gone, they're gone.' This would seem to fly in the face of the previous announcement that they may add more tickets if they sell out.

I don't get the impression that the attempt to accelerate ticket sales by limiting them to 6,500 has been particularly successful, but then again, I have no inside knowledge about this, so all is just speculation, really.

I think I saw a post from Simon a couple of days ago, saying that there was a technical issue saying that they had all gone, whilst there were still a few hundred left, which they were aiming to fix.

I've just received my E-Tickets for the Croppers 2025 but my 3-Day Parking Ticket is not with them. Anyone in the same boat or does anyone know if these will be sent, or posted out maybe, at a later date? I tried the AXS Virtual Chat thingy but it was about as much use as an inflatable darts board... Huh

The three-day camping stickers should arrive in the post because they're physical things.

Please be aware that some people will get their actual tickets sent to the AXS app, others will get them in email. Which is how I just got mine. Some appear to have gotten then by both methods.

No, I don't know why.

Yes, just received mine but like yourself, no 3 day camping ticket.  As Andy says, I'm assuming these come by post but I don't remember giving address details with my order..?

Makes sense to me. They want to be sure that all 6500 sell well before the event so that they've got some certainty, they don't want to be relying on a decent weather forecast in the last few days to try and get them over the line. Get the 6500 safely sold, using scarcity marketing tactics if necessary ("when they're gone, they're gone"), and then think about selling more.

And let's be honest, once those 6500 tickets are gone, they are gone. It doesn't necessarily mean there can't/won't be any additional tickets sold on top, but those 6500 are definitely gone Smiley

One would hope that the 6500 isn't the minimum break-even number, that there's a bit of safety margin there and that if there are a few hundred left, they've already sold enough to wash their faces, but perhaps the margins really are that tiny that they have to sell 6500 to guarantee the festival's future beyond 2025?

Thanks both - that makes sense Andy - I remember now, thanks for confirming  Smiley
