    Hi, Do you still have the spare ticket? Is it for a boy? I will pay!
    The tickets for this event take peoples photos and ID, unless you look identical to someone, it is pretty unlikely you will be able to buy a ticket. Sorry dude you'll have to sit this one out.

    ...
    It's not as simple as just giving you a ticket. You have to have registered, and have them add you using your unique ID code thing. I don't think you can add a guest after the booking has gone through and your picture and address is on the ticket as well as a bar code so it can't be faked.

    Just noticed that Florence and the Machine have switched to the Sunday now - one of the reasons we went for Sat tix was to see them.

    A tad pissed off, tbh.

    I think it could be anyone who is doing Capital's Summertime Ball?
    So I think Coldplay, Justin Bieber or someone?
    I hope Coldplay.

    Tickets reopened today for Londoners so I managed to snag one. Shame the Sunday lineup is terrible :facepalm2:

    Florence is the only act I'd actually go out of my way to see. Are there more names to be announced other than the special guest?

    It starts at 1pm, but gates open at 10am-ish, allow a lot of time though cause of security checks... Ends at 10:30pm on Sunday for your information
    Thanks for the information!! That's very kind of you!!

    Nas has been added to the line-up. He'll headline the 1XTRA Stage.

    On Sunday, FFS.


    Why are they going out their way to make Saturday worse and worse?

    Kasabian and Rita Ora have been announced for Saturday.. I'm pretty jealous about both, mainly Kasabian!

    Swap? Haha I wish... Kasabian are cool but I didn't like their most recent album so yeah. Rita Ora just seems like more shrapnel from the grenade that is pop music.

    I mean I liked her vocals on Hot Right Now but RIP's a dreadful tune... Ah well, plenty of good music both days tbh - plus at least we managed to get tickets!

    Rita Ora is good, but she doesn't have any amazing hits which will make you want to change days or anything?
    In my opinion Sunday always looked better?
    Has Will.I.am ever done a tour without the B.E.P? Same goes for Dappy, and Jack White without his sister? I'm in no way saying they're bad live or anything!
    Leona Lewis hasn't done anything for a while
    The top 5 artists are good though.

    But then you look at Sunday and they're all established and known to be good live!

    Both days are very good for free! And we should all be very grateful that we live in such a place to get this luxury for free! Enjoy what you have!

    At first I was unsure over what day to opt for, tbh there is imo great artists on both days - as Southend says, its free anyway so who are we to complain?

    I would be happy going to either day plus as this is my first concert I'm satisfied with 1 band/artist I listen to!

    Just seen they have put the artists into their stages now.. and I must say, being a big fan of dance music - Saturday has an amazing Dance Arena!
