    I have tried for the last few months but never seem to be online when tickets are available.. Does anyone know what codes are working at the moment? :confused:

    I tried all yesterday and this morning with panther, leopard, tiger, ocelot, cougar, bobcat, but they all state that the closing date for this special offer was on 25th March. I would really like to take my children this weekend or even next weekend. If anyone has tickets that they don't want please please let me know (2 tickets or 4 would be much appreciated)!:D

    Hey!
    I have also been lucky to receive two tickets for tonight and fortunately I can go :)
    Just a question for anyone who's been - is it first come first serve, seats wise? The e-mail says that admission begins one hour and fifteen minutes before the show, but does that mean whoever comes first with the free tickets gets better seats, or it doesn't matter?

    Also, there is no need to bring the confirmation e-mail printed out, right? As long as the tickets are in our name? Because I don't have a printer... :(

    Thanks!

    It didn't appear that it made a difference to me last night. The lady who was issuing the tickets just glanced at the email note and then separated the number of tickets from a huge reel of them. As they were all perforated together I assume it just means you are likely to be in the same block as all the other "freebies".

    One note to remember is that we were not able to go straight to our seats i.e. arrived at 6.45pm but not allowed in until 7.40pm. Therefore you have to wait around in the tent area which does not have that much to do except eat in the african restaurant or get a drink (see my earlier post re prices). Oh there were very few seats in this area so you are standing around for some time.

    Hope this helps but obviously I am only commenting on my experience last night!

    I don't think tickets are allocated to a particular name, that would be too complicated logistically. You go there, show the email confirmation, and two tickets will be given to you from a huge pile. If you have confirmation for more than two tickets just show them together and ask nicely to be seated together, they will accomodate wherever possible. Go and get the tickets early, you have more chance of being given really good seats then, then go and have a bite somewhere.

    I have sent them an email requesting for two more tickets, they replied as follows:

    Hello,

    you can buy two more tickets at the box office.
    I just can offer you 2 comp. tickets, not more.

    I ask for your understanding.

    Hi
    Was there any free tickets for tonight.
    If their not checking email confirmations against a list - does that mean you can print out the same email more than once and use for more than 2 peeps????

    Thanks candyflossing - but these all come up with the same message. Oh well, will keep trying and hope that i get tickets soon. I really hope to go weekend time - especially with having the 2 children. In the meantime if anyone gets tickets they can't use for this weekend please pm me.
