60% off tickets to High Voltage Festival

Options
If you hurry, you can get 60% off tickets to High Voltage Festival with Groupon today:

http://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/london/high-voltage/545097

Day tickets for £25 each or weekend tickets for £44.

These are normally roughly £60 for day tickets or £100 for weekend.

The festival takes place in Victoria Park in London, this weekend (23rd/24th July), and features Judas Priest, Slash, Thin Lizzy, Dream Theater, Black Country Communion, Thunder, Electric Wizard (my personal favourite) and many more.

Has anyone else bought this? I received my email voucher today, but can't work out if that's my ticket or if I need to buy the ticket online somewhere. If so, where?

    I went last year and it was brilliant (though they apparently lost £1 million on it!).

    Hi, I bought a ticket for Sunday but how does the whole thing work? Do I need to do anything else or will I get emailed an e-ticket????

    *UPDATE* Received an email late yesterday with an attachment that would appear to be my 'Ticket' so that would seem to be how it works....

    Groupon need to get their act together! Now you have to pay £3 instead of £2.50 because there's no time for the tickets to be posted so you have to pick them up. Also, *tip* don't do what I've just done! The timer made me panic lol and I clicked to buy insurance at £4.49 per ticket (I bought three tickets :/). It looks like a accept terms and conditions box. You have to go through the checkout process separately for each ticket.

    Absolutely gutted I missed out on this deal. My partner and friends all really want to go but can't really afford £60 per ticket including fees. If only I'd seen this offer on Groupon sooner :(

    Don't worry, High Voltage obviously still haven't sold enough tickets, and have just launched a 2 for 1 offer. Really I feel sorry for anyone who bought at full price ages ago.

    Here's the link (not quite as cheap as the Groupon offer but there's only a few £s in it):

    See you down the front!
