In November, the Eden Project was criticized when tickets for Kylie Minogue’s 2019 show were selling on resale websites for over £200, with the original tickets were originally being sold for £60. The venue had similar problems in 2017 when Gary Barlow fans were outraged with the booking system, tickets selling out in just half an hour and again many were going for three times the price on resale sites. The Eden sessions have been dubbed “the most intimate venue,” and since 2002 has grown its capacity from 3000 to 6000 people.
Boardmasters festival also returns and welcomes acts such as Florence & The Machine, The Foals and The Wombats – with day tickets and camping tickets still for sale on the Boardmasters website.
