TICKETS UPDATE 11th April 2006

==============================



TICKETS ARE NOW ONSALE!! bounce You can follow this link to the online Shop to make your purchase. If you buy a ticket with the forthcoming DVD you will get a £3 discount. Please note that the price of £25 will only be valid until the 13th June









Finally, we have a venue for play biggrin

Thanks for being so patient, the location for PLAY is now confirmed as being at Fordhall Farm, Market Drayton, Shropshire. TF9 3PS



The gates will be open from 10am Thursday 22nd June until 6pm Monday 26th June (yes that's FIVE days biggrin ) and will cost the princely sum of £25 in advance and £30 from two weeks prior to the festival. The tickets will be on sale from Sunday 2nd April right up until the event. The ticket price covers all facilities and events once onsite (bar, food & drink etc excluded of course) all workshops, the show(s), the childrens creche area etc etc etc



A beautiful organic farm set in the countryside (although 5 minutes from the town of Market Drayton) that will make for the most wonderful setting for this years (and hopefully many more) PLAY Festival.

(Please visit the Fordhall Farm website, they need to raise £600,000 by July 2006 to stop this beautiful fertile place from becoming yet another industrial development, if you can help their cause please do so hug )



It has great links to the M6 motorway via the A53 and for non car users we will post all info about the local transport situation asap. There isn't a train station that's particularly close but we will be laying on a PLAY Bus to make collections to/from the station as often as possible to help everyone out. There may be a very small charge for this (ie a quid or two) to cover the cost of the driver etc.



I will keep this post updated and of course keep your eyes on the PLAY Website and forum for the most up to date information.



If you could keep your questions in the PLAY Forum we'd much appreciate it as it will help us keep some control and ensure we answer as many as possible. It'll save Malcolms badwidth a little too.....



Hope to see you all there!

We need to have a Play location that defies natural laws so it's a 10 minute walk for every spinner wherever they are.

We'll give you till next Play to find such a place Dunc wink

Also do you know if the DVD's will arrive before the 20th May? if not can I get the delivery address changed?

Cool, thanks.

Unless you manage to randomly appear at Mel's this weekend I probably won't see you until Play so have a good summer. I'll bring my new poi to Play though they disapointed me, at some point i'll have to justify making 1 inch thick monkey fist ropes, with less chain and longer rope.

Some point after my current ones die, must not spend more money on poi...though I do have 5 bounce juggling balls arriving this week.

Hey hey Mister Dunc,



Were gonna try and get a sheffieldian collective together and bumble along to bounce in the sun with you guys : ) yaay



are you likely to sell out of tickets at all?



also if there is anyone who is gonna be in the sheffield area and needs a lift, were hoping to get a mini-bus organised?



Keep smiling

Lolli x

Hi Lolli!! It'll be awesome to see you and the Sheffield lot there, it's been too long since I headed your way.

Tickets may/may not sell out. With the price rising on 7th June we're expecting a lot to go after May monthly paydays have come through. You can buy now and pay later tho, but if you haven't paid by 7th June it'll be £30 instead of £25.

We probably have some friends of yours helping us out, Jamboree will be down doing lots of fun things over the weekend smile

What's the deal for 'staff'?

You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.

Green peppers, lime pickle and whole-grain mustard = best sandwich filling.

Lifts are good but no-one needs to be toooo stranded.
Info from the PLAY website:

...we have arranged for a PLAY BUS to make collections from Wellington Train Station in Telford (which is around 17 miles from PLAY).

Wellington Station is on the main Birmingham to Shrewsbury line and it takes around 40 mins from Birmingham with trains leaving every half hour.

The PLAY BUS will collect on:
THURSDAY ~ Midday until 10pm
FRIDAY ~ 8am until 6pm

More info on the PLAY site....

I've found the offer of copious amounts of Chocolate helps get lifts biggrin Good luck finding one.



Maybe a lift sharing thread needs to be started on the Play site...if it isn't already there....
