Tickets

EDIT:

Ok, ok sorry! I panicked a little and misread what Richard said... Missed the wold "info" and went straight to 'ticket'...

SORRY GUYS!

Haha!!
If it makes you feel better I finally just got online to read that post and didn't read it properly... Fell up the stairs with the iPad in my hand, whoopsie!
Glad I didn't 'really' miss anything.
Honestly thought I was gonna have a coronary!

This is getting exciting. I'm kinda worried that the tickets will sell out before I can snag one, hopefully I'm worried over nothing.

I'm honestly feeling sick at the thought of this... *fingers crossed* for everyone!

We were just talking about this on Twitter!  I'm a mess.

Barring any unforeseen complications in the next few hours ("Anything can happen in the next half day!") the ticket info will be released at 6pm BST today. Thanks for your patience.

Since it's well past 6pm BST, and no info has been released, do you have another release time?

So, does this mean sales will still be on the 4th? Don't want to get too excited. 

Patience Pam, all will be revealed in a couple of hours ☺

Unfortunately "patience" is not part of my vocabulary.

I thought that's what this post was all about:

The Homecoming Tickets

Tickets will go on sale on Sunday 4th October at 9am PST / 5pm BST
- please check what time that is for you in your own time zone, using this link
Time Zone Converter

We will publish a direct link to the ticket purchase page of the website via Facebook and Twitter, or simply click on the Tickets link on the Gatecon homepage.

Ticket price is US$275
There will be a maximum of 1000 tickets available.
One person can order for a group of friends but we will need names and email addresses for all people in the group

We are launching the main convention ticket ONLY on this date to expedite your transaction through the store. Ticket add-ons such as the banquet and the tours will be released at a later stage.

Payment for tickets will be through Paypal. You do not have to have a Paypal account in order to make your payment, and you can use your credit card through Paypal. We have considered alternative payment options this week but none was suitable.

There will also be a Payment Plan available through Paypal where you can spread the cost of your ticket/s over three months with the first payment made at the time of booking. There will be an additional charge for using this option.

Children under 5 years old can attend the convention free of charge but must sit on the lap of a paying ticket holder. We are unable to offer reductions for other age groups.

For people with disabilities that require a carer to be present a registration form will be up on the website that you need to complete.

The convention ticket gives admittance to all the on-stage panels, the Meet and Greet party, the charity auction and other convention activities marked as free to enter. It does not include the photograph sessions or the autograph sessions. Optional extra tickets will be made available shortly for the banquet, the harbour cruise and the filming location tour.

Seating in the main auditorium will be in colour coded blocks based on date of ticket purchase. If you are wishing to sit with friends during the guest panels we strongly recommend that you make one purchase for all members in the group at the same time. We cannot guarantee adjacent seats for tickets purchased at different times.

Amanda and Michael have confirmed that they will be joining Richard and the other guests on at least one of the event days. Full schedules will be made available when we have them

Questions:

95, 90, 90 are the payment amounts? Is it CAD? USD? Pounds?

What's the fee for the payment plan and when is it due?

Sorry to be a pain, but I need to make arrangements for friends to send me Paypal money and I want to make sure they send me the correct amount.
Thanks!!

Payment plan will have a 5% fee and there will be three equal payments of US$96.25 (total of $288.75). Note the auto-calculation may be +/- one cent

If it makes you feel better I finally just got online to read that post and didn't read it properly... Fell up the stairs with the iPad in my hand, whoopsie!
Glad I didn't 'really' miss anything.
Honestly thought I was gonna have a coronary!

LOL!!! I hope you didn't get hurt or broke the IPad in the process though... Anyway, yes it makes me feel a lot better XD that means I'm not the only one over reacting about this whole thing (family is starting to think I'm going nuts), it's kinda comforting actually XD

I'm happy to hear that you're ok u.u
My twitter feed is kinda quite, must be because I don't have much SG fan... Actually no one is twitting about it *feels left alone*

So Richard, just so I understand, the faster we buy our tickets the closer to the front we'll be? Can you explain how these ticket color blocks work so it makes more sense? Thanks, Kim

[Fryn]

Tickets are assigned a colour depending on the order they are bought. For example, the 1st 300 will be colour pink, next 300 will be green and the last 400, yellow. These are just examples and may not be the colours we end up using! Anyone with a ticket in a particular colour can sit anywhere they like within the seats in that block. That way if on day 1 you choose a seat you don't particularly like you can alter it for day 2.

Hope this helps explain it a bit more!
