Jump to: Newest in thread
I'm a massive banksy fan went to see his exhibition in Bristol a few years back and also been to see a few bits of his work around the country.
Definitely going to go check this one out, it's open 11am-11pm from 22nd August - 27th September.
And on Friday nights they will have music artists performing, comedy show 1 of the Fridays. On Saturdays there will be dj's playing, both nights open till 1am |

I want to go.
The tickets aren't available online yet.
I won't queue for the 'one out one in' ticket.
I need to book a hotel too.
They've made it too difficult to go. So hard to get tickets.
I'm desparate. |

Well guys the hint was tickets on sale at midnight and believe I've been glued to the website all night and now begin to think this is a Banksy wind up. He has told the council and papers to go to the website but the calendar is just an image. I'm now thinking only way to get tickets is at the desk.  |

I'm with you there Granny - I'd have an overnight in Weston. I fear it's going to be near impossible to get tickets, with touts reselling them, after their computers spam the website for them. And in the weeks it's running, there aren't that many tickets altogether.
Will be trying my luck! |

I think that is the point. The whole experience is meant to be awful. The website definitely appears to be a good part of that and holding it's end up. |

I think Banksy is a wind up.

As bristolians we have been surrounded by banksy and other equally good street artists for years... One of my fav cafes has one (wild wild west) right above it... So im dying to see the weston exhibition...but im buggered if im waiting in line for hours and hours to see it... The whole point of street art is that its there for anyone to see... Not to be queued up in line for hours or booking online for tickets..... seems too businesslike somehow ... His exhibits should have been put all over weston in random places for people to see.. Free of charge at their leisure. Would be better for local business too. Thousands of people walking round the streets as opposed to parking, going to exhibit,and back to their cars and home. |

It's not just his works, there are DJs and other things listed too. The site shows over 30 artists from across the world.
I have a lot of Banksy street art around me too but I think part of the point of this is the concept as much as anything.

You seem to be missing the point of what is being done. It is returning the tropicana to use and creating a theme park which itself is an artistic installation. That is different to just leaving stuff lying around.
You also could not leave Damien Hirst or Banksy sculptures around or people would take them and sell them for millions as we have already seen happen with much of Banksy's painting. |

I think after the novelty and the media attention dies down a little the queues won't be as long.. and if the money accrued helps get the old 'Tropicana' open again ,it can only be a good thing all round

"It looks great . Lots of interesting artists involved including Jimmy Cauty of KFC fame, last seen in the press for buring 1 million pounds. "
I s always wondered if they really did that.
They claimed it was an art statement, but nobody would torch a million squid.
Plus, if I remember right, it was on a remote island - with select media peeps in attendance. Not exactly on your local high st |

Tuesday is meant to be the day for ticket sales as they have said, nearly all along. Its on for a few more weeks personally think I will wait a couple more weeks till the brats are back at school and waiting time is less than 3 hours to get in. |

Once the site was working it was easy. Best to click on the list icon, as it shows which sessions are sold out. In the calendar mode you have to hover over the sessions to find out.
I am hoping at the end Banksy is going to release all of our credit card details as part of the dismal experience as well. |

Properly dismal will be you get in the queue and a seagull either poops on you or nicks your chips. Then you get to the ticket office and they have sold out. You trudge back to your car and you have a parking ticket. Finally log onto Fab, and no-one has messaged you.

No, I'll see if I can get any tickets. If I can't then I am going to the turning up and queuing thing when I have two consecutive days free. I might as well try and arrange a meet as I'll be on tour. |

I almost didn't get in; the woman at the security scanner pulled me aside for smiling and told me I would be ejected if I did it again.
If you haven't been and are thinking about it then don't, just do it. The next batch of tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10am.

There's a rumour going round that it may potentially stay open for longer!
There's a post on Facebook saying if 100,000 people want him to keep the place open he'll look into it.
Not sure how reliable it is. Banksy has stated that they're not insured a second past the end of the month - and the site is due for redevelopment at some point.
Keep em peeled!!

I went the other week and thought it was amazing. Some really interesting, thought provoking and down right fun stuff
Not forgetting the ever so helpful staff dotted around the place |

What about the big metal thing with the handy places to which you may tie something?

"Off there again tonight.

*and again for the final night.
You jammy *%&&@$ "
I'm hoping there'll be some surprise spectacular finale.
Tomorrow nights masked ball should be fun. You can't get in unless your face is covered an Banksy will be there hence the masked bit. Although since nobody knows what he looks like I think the no mask/no entry rule is a tad OTT.

The mask is because they're fed up of seeing your face. I think you should approach people and say, You are Banksy and I claim my £10.

I'm glad you enjoyed it; I did too.
It's got half an hour left and then they are packing up the bits (not the art) to send to Calais to help improve the camps.
