Last year we sold over half our tickets in a week, which we thought was pretty special! But this year we’ve sold that many on day 1 and half of the Thursday tickets were also snapped up! Jeeze Louise! You boys and girls are mad keen! Thanks to everyone who’s been so quick off the mark!

We thought you should know that tomorrow (Feb 1st) we’re putting the ticket link up on the website, so the rest of the world can have a chance of bagging a ticket. So if you haven’t got one yet go here right now before they all sell out!

We’ve had loads of messages in the last couple of weeks asking us exactly when and where we’ll be releasing the ticket link next Monday (30th Jan)…

Well, because our cheap tickets sold out in under an hour last year (and every single weekend ticket sold out within 3 months), we’re expecting a bit of a rush. For this reason, and to try and reward our most loyal fans, we’re going to post the ticket link up an hour ahead of the “official” 9am opening time. So at 8am on Monday the link will be on our Facebook “event” page. Feel free to share the event with your friends!

So see you bright and early next Monday! And if the website crashes or is slow then please keep trying – our web monkey will be awake bright and early to make sure it’s back up asap!

Much love

Bring on the trumpets!

To celebrate the end of January, we’re giving YOU the opportunity to bag yourself a TICKET FOR LIFE to 2000trees! So keep on reading…

For our 5th birthday last summer, the legend that is Mr Lex Beckett filmed what we think is a top notch documentary film all about 2000trees. So if you’ve ever wondered what the farm looks like before you 5,000 legends rock up, or exactly what goes into making your favourite festival, then this is the definitive video for you!

Have a goosey ganders and let us know what you think on Facebook.  The link to the film is here.

And if you want to be in with a chance of winning that TICKET FOR LIFE, then simply answer the following questions based on the documentary.

1. How many 2000trees organisers are there?
2. What are the first names of the two farmers at Upcote Farm?
3. What was the name of the first band ever to play the Cave?
4. How many Trees did Scroobius Pip count when he arrived at 2000trees?
5. The toilets were so clean that you could do what in them?

Email your answers along with your name to info@twothousandtreesfestival.co.uk with the subject line of “TICKET FOR LIFE COMPETITION”.

And if you’ve already bought your ticket for 2012 – we’ll even give you your money back as well! Can’t say fairer than that now can we?

Good luck!

Hope you are all good on this freezing January morning? We thought you’d like to know what’s going to be different at this year’s Trees, so have a look at the information below. If that’s not enough then check out our updated website here. It’s got pictures, rotating banners, videos and everything you could possibly want in a website!

Remember Trees tickets go on sale in less than two weeks (Monday 30th Jan)!

SILENT DISCO
This year you’ll be getting not one, not two, but THREE Silent Discos’ on both Friday AND Saturday. Woo! Here are the details…
- Main Stage: from 11pm to 3am there will be something for all tastes from Pulp to Hanson to Rage Against The Machine.
- The Cave: from 11pm to 3am you’ll get a much more alternative selection from the worlds of metal, alt, indie, punk and rock.
- The GreenHouse: from 9pm to 3am, on one channel we’ll give you the best dance DJs we can find and on the other you’ll get some seriously chilled out tunes.

CAPACITY
A lot of you have asked that we keep the capacity the same for this year. So… we’re pleased to announce that is exactly what we’re going to do. Bish. Bash. Bosh. The downside to this of course is that we fully expect to sell out super quick. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

OTHER CHANGES
Other areas that we will definitely be improving for this year include the GreenHouse sound, the family camping area and getting out of the festival quickly on the Sunday. If you’ve got any other requests then hit us up on Facebook.

Muchos love.

Peas. Out.

First up…. Tickets coming your way very soon!

Tickets for Trees 2012 go on sale at precisely 9am on Monday 30th January. As usual we’ve got a limited number up for grabs at last year’s prices. Don’t forget that in 2011 these sold out within about an hour of them going on sale, so make sure you’re up bright and early on the Monday if you want one. We’ll post the ticket link up on our Facebook page and as usual it will be first come first served.

Second up….. The Golden Ticket Returns!

VIP access to the 2000trees backstage
The opportunity to meet the band of your choice
Loads of FREE food & booze
Free 2000trees merch, (including a T-shirt hoody, bags, programmes & CDs)

That’s not all, this lucky so and so will also get a TICKET FOR LIFE!!! Whoooop!

All you’ve got to do to be in with a chance to win such an amazing prize is to buy a ticket to this year’s fest before February 10th! Amazing!

Third up….. 50% off the last few bits of merch.

Finally we have a few remaining shirts, hoodys, CDs and hats left over from last summer so we’ve slashed our prices one final time….  you can now lots of this stuff at 50% off, so get involved peeps. Click here to snap yours up.

That’s all for now folks. We’re off to drink a non alcoholic beer and eat some low fat, low carb, low calorie & low taste food….. gotta love January!
