IT was a struggle but all 135,000 tickets DID sell out in the end –
though with rumours of the price dipping as low as a tenner.
Festival director Melvyn Benn said: “I was never in doubt that we’d
sell all the tickets, although it was slower than I thought, possibly
because of the registration scheme.
“We will have to review the registration process, but photo
ticketing is definitely the right thing to do.”
