Don't you need to have photo ID with the name of the person who booked the tickets on it when going in to music concerts these days?

You do for Noel Gallagher gigs I've been to but its not rigorously checked IIRC. Tickets can be bought and sold on Twickets these days, a fan to fan resale site where you can't sell tickets for more that 10% or 15% of face value and thats only to cover the booking fees and postage.

[hibsfan]

Just to warn you - I was dragged to Kylie at the castle last night and they were being VERY strict with resold tickets. Saw at least three groups being turned away unable to use tickets they had either bought online or even in one case been given by a friend for Christmas. Really melt for that pair - they had emails and everything confirming tickets had been bought by the person named on the ticket - stewards weren’t having any of it. To be fair - it is very clear on the website that the person named on the tickets has to be there.

Mate of mine and his wife are going.

Is it possible to get a beer?

[hibsfan]

Not bad but we had decent seats in section 14. Sounds last night was very good but apparently there were issues on Saturday. No alcohol sold at the venue... certainly made for a very pleasant atmosphere. Going back on Saturday for the proclaimers - can’t wait!

An update on ticket checks. They are checking every 4th or 5th person on the way in. If your name isn't on the ticket they are sending you to the box office who will stamp your ticket and you will get in ok.

[NC1875]

Looking forward to it. Never been at a gig at the castle before.

Assuming you’ve bought them through ticketmaster’s exchange system - this is what happened to us. If your name isn’t on the system you’re oot!

[BroxburnHibee]

How was the castle as a concert venue?

I was there Saturday night. There was some sound issues. Crowd were well up for it and she put on a great show.

I wasnt there last time Proclaimers played but feedback seemed to say it was excellent.

[Frazerbob]

Just bought some tickets from a mate who can no longer make it. Have I just wasted my cash?

I think you will be ok. They don't check everybody and even if they do you should still get in ok.

[Archie70]

My daughter got them for my wife and I for Christmas presents surely that can't be an issue

[DPB_HFC]

Got 3 seated tickets for Sat - selling for £40 each but selling all 3 together. DM me if interested.

Cheers

I think we're heading into The Booking Office on Waverley Bridge for a cheap bite to eat first.

Might bump into you at some point during the evening.

I’m meant to be swapping seated for standing do you or anyone know that once your in there you can go wherever asking as you have the ticket for that area or is it one entrance for standing and another seated?

[reidy]

Does anyone know about any bag restrictions?

[Wilson]

I'd stop at Ann Budge but suit yourself.

You won't get in with a rucksack , Just a small carrier bag is allowed

[Phil MaGlass]

WTF nae alcohol at a gig?

[bingo70]

WTF nae alcohol at a gig?

It’ll just mean there’ll be loads of idiots drinking far too much before they go in.

For the record, I’ll be one of those idiots.

well they werent strict checking tickets for the proclaimers on sat! saw paul hanlon get swamped by folk wanting selfies!

[GreenCastle]

Great night - always makes you proud to be a Hibee too.

Loads of Hibs scarves / flags.

Saw Hanlon / Stevenson and I think Mallan??

If you are going tonight - standing tickets queue left side to get wrist band and seated on right - this wasn’t very clear and many people got to the front and had to re queue to get in.

Didn’t see anyone get checked for ID either.

Proclaimers were on 9pm-10.30pm.

[calumhibee1]

Good night :agree:

[Frazerbob]

Cracking gig last night, despite all the scare mongering, no ID checking and very little security checks. No problem getting bevvy in as long it wasn’t blatant. Wee shop after the ticket barrier selling loads of mixers too which was handy. 😂

[CallumLaidlaw]

Brilliant gig as always. Good one to take my lad to for his first Proclaimers show. He absolutely loved it.

It was a great night.

As above, loads of Hibs flags and scarves. I did wonder if it was mostly Hibs fans that were in attendance. The answer came when Sunshine on Leith started. It looked like almost everyone attending were on their feet singing proudly.

[tricky]

After a standing ticket for tonight if anyone has a spare

My nephew(Leggeto on here) and his wife attended and sent me a clip on Facebook....looked great, and loads of Hibbies

[Hibbyradge]

How was the weather?

I was at the Saturday night gig and it got a bit cold but otherwise perfect.

Rain was forecast for Sunday night.

[Johnny Clash]

Weather was pretty wild tonight especially sat up near the back but everyone just tried to ignore the gusts of wind and rain and made the best of it. One side of the stage broke free in the wind and sent some guitars flying which gave the crew some extra work to do. Quite a few of people just wearing tee shirts or Hibs tops too so Proclaimers fans made of girders! Great gig.

[HibbyAndy]

Gusts of wind but no heavy rain to be fair , Fairly mild as well


Fantastic night , Atmosphere was tremendous as well ,The boys never let us down and the girl playing the violin was jawdropping ! Be Charlotte was fantastic as well
