Ticket Questions & Concerns

Coachella got CLOTH RFID wristbands! lets cross our fingers for the same!

That's devotion. I give you a Friday for this.

hey quick question...i got a new credit card besides the one i payed with for the payment plan...same account just new card...can i just call and switch it?? i believe i saw someone do this and it wasnt a problem...just making sure...thanks

If you believe what the Bonnaroo twitter says, among other things. "glad you are here too. Bonnaroo is selling out way in advance this year so we feel good. Enjoy!" I also read an article the other day that said part of the reason for opening the gates early is that they are anticipating a sellout.

I think they typically arrive a week or two before the fest. They send an email, I believe, when they are mailed out, but you can expect them around the first week of June.

I wish i had my money situation more stable, i have 5 people that "say" they are going with me and not a single one of us have bought a ticket yet due to financial struggles. I REALLY HOPE THEY ARE JUST BULLSHITTING ABOUT BEING CLOSE TO A SELL OUT!


I have a hard time accepting that they have a limit on tickets and that they are almost all gone, ive seen the arial photos of the bonnaroo grounds and their is a ton of space that has been used in the past that, in the last few years, hasnt been occupied.

Yea, there may be more room for camping, but there's only so many people that can fit inside centeroo at one time. They do have to cap the tickets at some point. I don't know if they're legit about selling out or just trying to sell more tickets.

a lot of people are saying that they are just saying it's close to a sell out to sell more tickets and i don't understand that. sales are ahead of last year and i believe them when they say it will sell out in the next few weeks.

we saw that as the first few tiers went faster (sure some will say they took down the # of tickets per tier and those people just like to complain), all festivals this year are selling more tickets than the previous year (coachella and sasquatch both sold out in record time) so why are we so hesitant to believe AC/superfly that it's almost sold out?

if they're already at 70,000 paid tickets they don't need to push sales these last few weeks as in this economy the buying patterns are going to switch to more of a last minute purchase and if they're already ahead in sales this should lead us all to agree that even more people will buy later which would mean a sell out.

bottom line if you're close to a sell out you don't say "we're almost sold out!" to sell more tickets, as those are going to sell anyway. you get this message out there as a way to counter act the negative comments they'll for sure get when it does sell out (ex. "bonnaroo sucks, stupid eminem selling it out! at least they could have let us know it was close!")

also people that are saying their isn't a capacity need to understand insurance and safety standards. bonnaroo probably can't get a permit for the festival (which i assume they still need even though they own the land) without putting a cap on the # of people they allow. this # determines staffing levels, # of facilities needed (ports, vendors/amount of food, water stations, etc.) and at some point you have to come to a capacity that the organizers and the county agree on and something that is manageable. the profit of selling over 80,000 tickets probably isn't worth the additional costs and headaches it causes on the logistical end.

Thank you!

way more than enough... most acts dont get close to their going rate at festivals... you have to be a huge act to get your going rate... bands use festivals as marketing tools not money makers

Heh. And so it begins.

Karma is going to bite me for that one.

So my order is completely screwed up. I ordered 3 GA tickets and 1 RV pass during the black friday sale. Yesterday I received just one GA wristband and one RV pass. I went through both my credit card and email records and only could find records of two GA tickets purchased.

So I have record of purchasing two GA tickets, but received only one and an RV pass, and really purchased 3 GA tickets and an RV pass.

I emailed bonnarootix but they haven't gotten back to me...hopefully everything gets cleared up. I went ahead and bought another ticket just in case things don't pan out right and roo sells out.
