SWN tickets for the four days, which get you free priority access to all the shows (subject to capacity) are £49.50.
For the moment they are only available from www.swnpresents.com – and they will roll out to more outlets over the coming weeks.
These are the advance prices. If there are tickets remaining then they will go up in price a week before the festival, so if you’re planning on coming please buy in advance, and preferably as early as possible to ensure you get a ticket.
The best value, and the most fun, is if you buy our most popular ticket which covers the whole festival :
SWN Festival 4-day Wristband : £49.50
But if you can only make some of the days you can buy individual day tickets :
SWN Festival Thursday Wristband : £10
SWN Festival Friday Wristband : £16
SWN Festival Saturday Wristband : £25
SWN Festival Sunday Wristband : £20
Wristbands grant you free priority access to all of the SWN Festival shows subject to capacity. Bascially, get a wristband and get around Cardiff to see as many shows as you can. We’ll publish a full timetable a month before the festival so you’ll have good time to make plans as to which venue you’ll need to be at and when to see the people you want to see. Just allow some time when you arrive to head to the wristband exchange to swap your ticket for your festival wristband.
