Just go in to the Eventim booking page and select "EVENTIM Seating Plan" booking. If you click on seats then add them to your basket you can work out where individual seats are. Don't forget to delete them again unless you want to buy more tickets!

All very scientific ....

Front row !
See you there guys - I may organise a meet up

Thanks for the link, Wendy.

I've copied the seating plan now. I'm a happy bunny!



Block A is seats 81-108

Row E is the best up for grabs now..just checked. I was tempted, but have my Ghent tickets + it's the day of a mate's wedding so I couldn't go anyway - thank god I got the Ghent ones! But yes, bloody expensive!!

Looking at the seating plan of sold tickets, Block A front few rows, should be an ideal venue!

Seriously, and having learnt from Wetbridge, that getting to such a venue, several hours in advance (especially as I got to see Mr C and the band rehearsing!) will be a must for many, so a meet-up would be great!

You have all got great seats! Front row centre block (A4) runs from 81 to 108 according to the seating plan. I bought off plan and my seat is just to the right of centre (yes!!)

It's good to see that the real fans appear to have the best seats for this "unconfirmed" event.

Excellent! I couldn't see the seating plan when I bought on my iPad, so just trusted my gut instinct See you there!

The deed is done ... could be great or wet...

Just booked my ticket, Block A4, Row: C, Seat: 106

Hop Farm might not be the most convenient location, but living in London it's going to work out a lot cheaper than any of the (current) alternatives.

Just happy to have the chance to see the show this year without breaking the bank.

Roll on September.

Please help how do I find Presales for The Hop Farm Kent UK 8th Sept 2012? I am dying to go I have never been a fan before so this is all new to me!!!!

Just letting you know that we have not got any feedback from AEG.
Use the information in this thread to reserve your tickets.

........... I gave in and shall float over the dreadful access and egress and fly with the concert.
I got block A row F seats 81-83.
praying for a sunny day starts now.

If it is any consolation, the rain at Wetbridge certainly added to the atmosphere, and the band played on (even if they did struggle to cover the instruments!)

all a bit deja vu for me

eventim also announced a Berlin concert at the Waldbuehne, send me the ticket (charged me 60 Euro on top of ticket price for courier, only option) and then it turns out it WAS NOT OFFICIAL. had ticket and all second row, flight booked. eventually, after long time got ticket price back but but not the 60 euro they charged me for sending me ticket they were not authorised to sell me. flight money not refundable either. lost a bucket of money and don't trust eventim at all.

so, i won't be dashing to buy, seeing waht Jarkko said on page 2 (i haven't rad all the rest yet) - just to share this story, as it is still possible - as happened before, ticket in hand and all, that it is not approved.

i had also wondered, selling thousands of tickets at say £100 a pop, is a lot of money to hang on to, even if you eventually, after weeks or months (as before with same tivket seller eventim) pay back the ticket fee - just a cynical thought people

I sympathise loulou. This is the only ticket I have bought for an unconfirmed show. If it doesn't go ahead I will only be out by a couple of pounds for postage. But given the show has been announced in all the UK press I would be very surprised if AEG do not confirm it soon.

I don't think you should blame Eventim for the 2008 Berlin fiasco. They are just agents engaged by the local promoters to sell tickets for an event. We know from the 2012 Verona fiasco that, in practice, it makes no difference whether a show is confirmed or not. People still lost money and/or were inconvenienced when they changed the date more than a week after tickets went on sale.
