Gutted won tickets to Rockness

Won tickets to Rockness with camping but can't go because having a BBQ for wifes 40th. Rockness would have been a brilliant way to celebrate her 40th.

And can't pass tickets on to cousins who live nearby as it name on guest list entry.

Oh well.

  • That's a shame, couldn't you re-organise the BBQ for another weekend (so your wife could have double the celebrations!)? Well done on your win anyway.

    Well done! Would it be possible to change the date of the BBQ, if you explained nicely to guests etc.?

    Unfortunately not, some people coming are from out of town and booked hotel and travel.

    Only planned to have BBQ 2 weeks ago.

    I would just tell your cousins to give your name on arrival assuming they are of the same sex and you dont need ID.

    Done it a couple of times for film screenings, that type of thing and they just tick the name off.

    Might try that, this is what they require:

    ID is required at the box office to guarantee admission. This can be photographic or something with your name and address. A copy of this letter must be presented at the box office too either on your phone or a hard copy

  • You can give the tickets to someone else...I won too :D but we were worried we couldn't make it so I emailed them and they said as long as I told her 2 names by close of play today they could transfer the tickets :) although we've now decided to go haha!
  • Hi pavers,

    Well done on your win.

    I was lucky enough to win Rockness tickets a couple of years ago but couldn't go due to work commitments.

    The same restrictions were on the information I had about the tickets. I gave them to my very happy sister and gave her id with my details on it (name, address etc) just in case. The ticket office didn't even ask for it as they were so busy!

    I would just chance my luck. I'm sure your cousin would be very grateful. Just a shame you couldn't go yourself.
