TOMORROWLAND TICKET SYSTEM CRASHES AGAIN!!!

Tomorrowland is one of the most iconic EDM festivals on the planet. This year they celebrate their 15th birthday and tickets are going like hotcakes!!!


If you can get them.


Global Journey went on sale last Saturday night/Sunday Morning. What happened was the worst sale I have ever seen from the festival of this size. A few things you need to know about this sale is that this is the package sale so these tickets are going for several thousand dollars each. These included Hotels, Trains, Planes and bus packages from all over the world.


When the shop opened it crashed right away, it then opened however once you got through all the drama and excitement of adding your details it would not let you pay. There was a range of dramas to add this including not being able to select the package you wanted, being booted out during the buying process and more.


This went on for 4-5 hours until Tomorrowland shut down parts of there shop. It then reopens several hours later. However when it did open prices where inflated by several hundred euros. Packages that were not sold out were showing as sold out only to become available later.


Almost 24 hours later and the ticket shop seems to get sorted or so we thought. Last night the Belgium Sale took place and has the same issues, The Worldwide Pre-sale took place at early hours of this morning. With a HUGE range of drama!!


With 1 sale left being the Worldwide sale, we can only hope that they have all their issues rectified. I have attended Tomorrowland 3 times and 2019 will be my 4th and I have never seen anything like this.


There has been some speculation around why this has happened. Some say they have changed their system and taken it all in house, others say they have changed the way they allocate tickets this year or it could be that their 15th birthday is attracting so many people that it is just overloading every server they have.


One thing is for sure, with only 100,000 tickets left to drop of 400,000 you are going to need to be lucky to get one. If you are still wanting to go then I would be visiting the Global Journey ticket site and getting one of the train packages.
