Well It’s done and dusted. Tickets for Sydney’s Big Day Out went on sale this morning and promptly sold out! But you’re in luck if you’ve yet to secure your tix you may still have a chance by registering for the ticket ballot.
45,000 tickets to the Sydney event have been snapped up by music fans. Ticketmaster sold out their 20,000 ticket allocation in less than five minutes, setting a new benchmark for any event in the country.
As previously announced, the final 10,000 tickets will be made available for purchase through an online ticket ballot via the Big Day Out website, www.bigdayout.com
So how can you enter the ballot?
Each week 1000 tickets for the 2008 Sydney BDO will be made available on our website via an online randomly drawn ballot. The ballot will be drawn at 9pm EST Thursday each week, beginning Thursday 25th October and finishing Thursday 27th December.
The weekly ballot ticket limit is 2 tickets per person. As the Sydney Big Day Out has a strict limit of 2 tickets per person, if you have previously
bought Big Day Out tickets to the Sydney event and if upon entering into the ballot you will surpass the 2 ticket limit, so no tickets will be allocated to you. This will be strictly adhered to.
Registering for the ballot
Registrations will open at 9am EST Thursday 18th October. You will need to complete and submit the ballot registration page on this website. Your registration will only need to be completed once and will last for the duration of the balloting weeks.
An email will be sent to you within 30 minutes of the ballot draw. This will provide details of how to complete the order, ie, pay for your tickets.You will then be given 5 days to pay for your ticket order (until 9pm EST Tuesday following the ballot). If in this time you have not paid for your order, these tickets will be forfeited and put back into the next week’s ballot.
