    I don't know how strict they are on this at the entrance gate but the event states a maximum ratio of 3 children per 1 adult and you seem to be taking 5 children with you, so you may need to purchase another ticket and take another adult with you to be on the safe side.

    I hope your daughter and friends have a great time.

    When they played here it was a right pigs ear, lack of organisation and terrible traffic, hope this one is more organised, and I would definitely take another adult with you.

  • Hi Travelchick - my first post:T

    Just wondered if you could tell me how to redeem the tickets from ticketeast?

    Also, we went to Swansea to see JLS a couple of weeks ago and absolutely no problems with traffic, etc although it was rather wet!!

    Thank you

    Hylands Park has a better set up for Traffic as it's used to holding V festival every summer so I wouldn't worry about that. It gets busy- don't get me wrong, but I can't imagine it being on the same scale as the Winchester gig as that area really is NOT designed for large volumes of cars. It'll take time to get out of the car parks- but that's to be expected when you go somewhere with thousands of other people all trying to leave at the same time!!

    Another adult would be wise if you have 5 10 year olds there, it'd be much less stressful for you and you wont have to worry about being turned away on the gates.

    When you get your voucher you just save the PDF onto your documents, then attache them to the email you sent to the ticket place.
