TICKETING INFO

Please submit a fully completed profile sheet for each of your school groups. Only once all profile sheets have been submitted will the full ticketing pack be prepared, so it is important you check that all groups are accounted for before arranging to collect your pack.  

​

We are lucky to be working with iTicket again this year. It has enabled us to make some time-saving changes to how these packs are made up.

• In the week 9-13 March, an E-PASS for the Performance groups will be emailed directly to the Cultural Group Coordinator (CGC). This ONE e-pass is to be downloaded as a PDF and forwarded to the relevant TICs for each group.

• ONE E-Pass, you're wondering? Don't worry, I got you!                             

           Within this e-pass are names and details of all the groups the school has
           registered for, including the Total Number of the group noted on the
           Profile Sheets. You may print this or save it on your electronic device.

• The TIC will show this pass at the gate and one of our Gate team will scan the pass and count through the number in each group as they enter. There will be a Prepaid queue at each gate for the Group to enter through.

• VEHICLE passes will be sent in a separate email to the CGC. 

​

​However, we do still need the CGC to pick up the BUS and Media passes as well as any other important information that will need to be shared with all the groups. It is important that you are available to collect from either location on either day, as packs will not be sent via post or courier.
