    From the BBC website.

    We will be emailing everyone who registered between now and Friday 24 April to let them know if they have been allocated tickets or not.

    From their website :

    Children under two years old do not need a ticket, but those two and over will need one. Please also bear in mind that this is an outdoor event, with large crowds expected.

    So some people will be happy :j
    James thinks worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it doesn't get you anywhere

    If i help you...Please thank me! :beer:

    Still no tickets :-( We live in the same post code 200 yards from the gates to the park. The stages will be set up on the far side away from our house though, so won't be able to see it. Depending on wind direction will probably hear muffled sound all day. How annoying is that gonna be.

    All four adults in our house have applied we will be gutted if we don't get any tickets at all. Hope we are not stuck in the house all weekend due to traffic. All the signs are up outside our house and right through the next village saying its going to be a tow away zone on the sat and sun.

    Its stupid if we dont get any as we would walk and not add to the traffic congestion:rolleyes:

    Congratulations to those that did get tickets and commiserations to those that didn't. Neither OH or I received an Email, so I guess we'll be watching the highlights on TV.

    The direct link for those wanting to completely make sure they didn't miss/delete that all important message is https://www.seetickets.com/bbc/bigweekend/?v=frm_lookup. (You'll need your Email Address and the Reference Number sent to you when you registered!)

    Have a great time anyone who's going!

    Was just about to post the link for checking your reference number online, but somebody beat me to it!:rolleyes:

    Couldn't take the suspense any longer so checked...wish I hadn't now..:(

    We live just down the road too.

    Still got OH's reference number to check, but even if he's successful we won't be able to go now-two tickets ain't enough for a family of three.:cry:
