Reading about the EAS ticket before I booked it, I came across this



Early Arrival Service is our most popular extra, with often up to 50% of the LAN partaking. Early Arrival Service ("EAS") allows both participants and spectators to arrive from 6pm the night before the event

If this is going to be the final time or not, I don't know. But this was on their site... So I'm guessing it's right.

Thought I better post it up seeing as there was talk of different times.

They will open check-in earlier than 6pm if all goes well during setup, but they don't want people to get their hopes up that there will be an early afternoon check-in since that would mean that everyone would turn up and maybe have to wait for 5+ hours!

Personally, I will probably turn up between 3-4pm. I will confirm closer to the time.

If theres the same problem next time maybe putting the tents in a nearby field (NOT the paintballing ones :D) would be a idea.

Ha, Paintballing fields XD lol. Don't want to wake up, get out of your tent to be pelted with paintballs from all directions!

I'll book my EAS soon.


As for the ticket, do you print it off? Or what?

Also, it says you need photo ID... I don't have any yet! I applied for one ages ago! But haven't got it yet... Shit.

You have a passport, right? That's what I used to use, but now I will use my driving licence :D.

Don't have a passport!

EDIT: Contacted Multiplay. Other means of proof of identity can be used in the case of my CitizenCard not getting here in time.
