We now have a new look online store which should be a lot more user friendly.
We have also released a new type of ticket, The Earlybird. These are slightly cheaper as the bands have not been confirmed and have a limited number. 50p booking fee included.
WGW HQ has now sold out of tickets for the Spa and Tickets for the Metropole are getting low too. You can however still purchase tickets through the usual resellers.
The Online Store is now open. The WGW April 2006 main event & overspill event tickets are available here
::Edit::
To stop the rumour mill in it’s tracks WGW HQ has not sold out of tickets. You will hear from one of the official streams when it does

The ticket price is £34 each plus 50p per ticket booking fee (cheaper than last year) for Spa (Friday and Saturday).
The Metropole event is £18 per person plus 50p booking fee (Fridays and Saturday). The Metropole will feature some of the Spa bands but we cannot confirm at this time which ones as soon as we know will be announced
Due to the amount of enquiries that we have recieved regarding Tickets, all tickets will be sent in ONE batch. They will be sent first class around March 31st so if you do not have your ticket by the 7th April contact us after then.
Currently Tickets are only available from WGW HQ, they will, however, be with the resellers soon.
Tickets are available through the Online Store from Monday 27th of February or through the credit card hotline now on +44 (0)7970 800776. Open 10am-10pm. Please do not call after 10pm. If you cannot get to call before that time could you please send a text message requesting a call back.
We are still gettting enquiries about the dates of this April’s WGW. The dates are April 21st and 22nd 2006 and not April 28th and 29th 2006. This is due to us clashing with another event that has been running much longer than WGW.
We have a temporary contact telephone number: +44 (0)7970 800776
This is due to Whitby HQ on the move again and we’re waiting to establish a new landline (Jo has just moved from Whitby to Doncaster)
This just in from WGW HQ.
In a bid to keep EVERYBODY happy Jo decided she would release tickets when she had not only confirmed the line-up (or atleast most of it) but also had exchanged contracts with the bands.
Apologies that this is not yet done but you have our assurance it will be done very soon. Sometimes it is very difficult to please everyone and unfortunately no matter what happens it is the ones who are unhappy who shout the loudest.
Tickets will go on sale the minute we have exchanged contracts with the majority of the bands.
Also apologies to anyone who hasn’t yet recieved a reply from an email sent to Jo. Jo & Sam have recently moved house and have been having problems with BT regarding their broadband.
I’ve noticed that we’re starting to get a few enquiries both on Livejournal and the forum as to when the 2006 line up will be announced and when the tickets go on sale.
This is just a note to say that as soon as we have any information from
Axy_666
Tickets for the over spill event for Whitby October 2005 are on sale from the online shop.
(Link updated, sorry for any confusion!)

WGW HQ no longer have any tickets for WGW in October 2005. You’re better off trying one of the resellers.
Please note that tickets for October 2005:
a) won’t be posted out until the first week in August as Jo is moving to Whitby in the near future.
b) bought prior to 1st August will be £36 — on and after (from midnight 1st August) this date the price will increase to £42. This is due to the decreased capacity of the venue (as made clear in April) but with overheads remaining the same.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
