Tramlines Festival - Hillsborough Park


Recommended Posts

I have friends who live about 10 miles from Leeds Festival and get free VIP weekend tickets every year. Apparently it's the same at Creamfields too - someone I knew met people there who got freebies despite living 22 miles away.

 

I do think Tramlines should have done a 1 mile radius or something and held back 2 tickets per household (with ID etc)

I wonder what it was like for resident tickets in previous years?

A one mile radius from Hillsborough Park? That would be at least 1000 properties, maybe more. Would never happen.

They could do that and enter people into a ballot. Even if every household took up 2 tickets that's 2,000. Give them day tickets rather than weekend tickets then? Aren't they aiming for much more than that? Doesn't seem too crazy to give away 2,000 day tickets over 3 days.

I personally think that the Tramlines organisers have treated the local residents with utter contempt.

 

Although there has been promise of free tickets to local residents - this still has not been sorted and many residents who live very close to the park could end up missing out in the ballot.
