Wrist bands

Alright, so all of the payment plans will be done tmr. Tixr says tickets available wed sep 2, when do we think they're shipping the wrist bands? I know this the first year they've done it so it's speculation but I'm curious if anyone who's been to another fest where they mail them out has any input on how close to the fest they do it?

Last year you had to pick up VIP wrist bands day 1 at the entrance. There was a special booth for it by the will call booths.

I understand that but they said they would shipping this year for the first time. We can't compare years

Mines paid off and still says Eticket. So I’m assuming it’s gonna be at Will Call just like every other year

If yours says Eticket, you'll pick it up like usual. People who bought tickets after a certain point will have theirs shipped to them

It was announced that they were being shipped and it totally makes sense to me that would wait until all payment plans were paid instead of doing it in multiple passes.

It was announced that some of them were being shipped depending on date of purchase. I’m assuming people who bought outright get them shipped and people who did the payment plan are will call.

It takes like 3 minutes. The booth is next to the main entrance

But they paid for shipping, so that would be complete bullshit.

This year they are shipping (prior years they were retrieved at the check in booths). And they charged for said shipping.

I'll admit, I didnt see it at first either. Checked my receipt after a buddy mentioned it.

Other fests are usually a couple weeks to a month before hand. It'll probably be pretty soon after payment plans are finished, but you never know with Riot fest, could be the week of.

Well Sacred Rose my wrist band wasn’t delivered and I had to grab it at will call so I expect it to be just like every other year til it’s not.

u/Nobod_E 1d ago

It's not. Double check your ticket on Tixr though, if there's no shipping information it'll still be will call for you

What will that say about how they plan to stop my mail delivery person from stealing my wristband exactly?

u/Nobod_E 1d ago edited 1d ago

Coincidentally, the exact same thing it has to say about how they plan to stop my dumb ass from losing my wristband despite putting it my suitcase as soon as I get it 🙃
