There was a mad rush for Palèo tickets when they went on sale yesterday at midday and festival organisers announced that it took just 5.5 hours for all tickets to be sold-out. Concerts for the Sunday sold-out in 14 minutes, those for Thursday, Friday and Saturday in less than 45 minutes, and those for the Tuesday and Wednesday by 17:30.
Missed out on tickets? Two other opportunities
If you missed out yesterday there are two new opportunities to get tickets, the first is the traditional “bourse aux billets” . This platform will be begin on the Paléo site on 9 May at midday on and makes it possible for anybody to sell and/or buy tickets at a fair price and safely in an effort to fight against the black market.
The second opportunity is that 1,500 tickets will be on sale each morning of the festival at 09:00 for the same
night and through Ticketcorner outlets (no phone orders). No tickets will be sold on site. Check out Paléo for dull details.
