 Well, there are only a few days to go but we can confirm that Infest 2008 has sold out!Tickets are no longer available to buy so we really hope you've all got yours already! There will be NO tickets for sale on the door so please dont turn up on the day expecting to get into the show if you haven't got your ticket. Here's to a great August bank holiday weekend! Cheers The Infest Crew Only 8 14:08:2008 - Webstore News Only 8 days to go! Excited yet? We are! We simply can't express how honoured we are to have the legendary FRONT 242 on the Infest stage!!! Yes!!! FRONT 242!!! At Infest!!! Next week!!! It really is happening!!! We can happily say that our official Infest webstore trial this year has been a storming success and we're really glad we were able to offer you a fast and secure way to buy your tickets and accommodation online! 2008 was the first year we used the webstore and we just want to thank everyone for being so supportive while we got it up and running. Thank you! The webstore will be going offline on 23.59 on Wednesday 20th August 2008 to give us time to sort out last minute sales before we head up to Bradford for the gig. This means you will no longer be able to buy Infest tickets from us after this date. T-shirts will be available to buy at the venue but we usually sell out of them very quickly over the weekend - order them in advance from our webstore so you don't miss out! http://www.freewebstore.org/infest-festival-official-webstore/ 14:08:2008 - Ticket News New! There are a very limited number of Infest tickets still available and we will NOT be selling any tickets on the door as we fully expect to sell out! Make sure you buy your ticket soon to avoid disappointment! Usual outlets can be found here: http://www.infestuk.com/tickets.html 14:08:2008 - Accomodation News As stated a few weeks ago, the University Halls have sold out of all rooms for Infest 2008. We already have a long reserve list of people waiting for cancellations so please check out the following link if you still have nowhere to stay. http://www.visitbradford.com/accommodation/ If you're staying in halls, please heed the following!! The Wardley House rooms are strictly one person to a room, and the rooms at Arkwright are for a maximum of 2 people to a room (even though the rooms ARE singles!). We have a very good thing going on with the owners of the Halls - please don't put the future hire of cheap accommodation at risk by trying to cram more people into your room. Please look after your halls room and the communal areas to which you have access. Last year, some damage occurred in the common room at Wardley and EVERYONE staying in Wardley lost a fraction of their deposit to cover the cost of repairs because no-one came forward to accept responsibility for the damage. Please be vigilante and immediately report any damage. Deductions from deposits DOES happen! If you do cause any damage (we fully appreciate that accidents happen!) please let the porters and us know as soon as you can! We always hope that everyone will act responsibly in the halls so everyone's full deposits can be returned quickly - please make it happen this year! Look out for each other... look after each other... keep that Infest community vibe alive. See you all next week! 08:08:2008 - Infest Market News As usual, all your favourite stalls will be trading at Infest. The market will be open from 3pm on Saturday and Sunday so don't miss out! Go here for the full list of traders. 08:08:2008 - Charity News Once again, we are pleased to support our two chosen charities at Infest: The Marie Curie Cancer Care Trust, and The Lymphoma Association.
