I'm still deciding if I'm going to the show Tuesday,if I do go I grab a ticket when I'm there.
I'll be hyper after the show,so no way I'm going back home so I will head to soho to party the rest of the night.
Please tell me there's bars open later into the night.
I get a train back to Windsor in the morning, if I'm still
Functioning.....I'm ready to roll with the stones. Yay

The St Giles bar is usually open until 2 am .Not far from Soho, Top of Tottenham Court rd near Oxford street

Twickenham Stones Foldable Brochure

Thanks for sharing, the brochure mentions that no buses serve Whitton Road for 1 hour after the concert. I presume this means that tempory road closures are in effect. I was planning to catch the 281 back to Kingston from the bus stops along Whitton Road, any idea where the busses would be rerouted to? Looking at the maps I wonder if the stops further up Nelson/Warren Rd might still be serviced.

There was a time when Lucky Dips were exclusively limited to a single first batch and sold very quickly, but now they're used as a way to dump loads of unsold tickets for poor selling shows - they just add more.
Soon enough, people will be able to buy between one and eight just as they were able to in Dublin. Not guaranteed a great seat, but worth the gamble. At the outrageous prices they've been asking, at least you can get in for a reasonable price w/the chance of getting a Pit (or something other than nosebleed), but wherever you happen to land at least you won't feel robbed.

The strategy hasn't changed - they were always a way of dumping unsold tickets - but it's becoming more transparent on this tour, presumably because they have more unsold tickets (and more people have wised up to what's going on).

The first couple of times they used the Lucky Dips there was only a limited batch of them, and once they sold out (which was instantly) there were no more Lucky Dips released. The same happened with the Vegas '16 shows - the Lucky Dips sold out in an instant and no more were ever released. They did have massive price drops of entire sections, but no Lucky Dips. Now we're seeing subsequent batches of Lucky Dips being released late in the game - don't know how long they've been doing this but it hasn't always been this way.

...Does anyone know if there is any organized trips / guiding tours to Cotchford Farm? I'd love to go there on my way home, maybe on my way back to Gatwick Airport.

Cotchford Farm is a privately owned house and it has never been open to the public.

Thank you for your answear Green Lady. I guess the only way to get there then is by taxi, and an hour (30 minutes each way) by taxi will cost more than it's worth.
Gotta plan a trip to UK later, rent a vehicle to get "around and around."

Was lucky to get a pair of lucky dips just now.

Who controls the sale of lucky dips is it the stones or the promoter?
There seems to be loads more going on sale again.
I wonder if its got to do with jagger seeing empty spaces in dublin.
They definitely got the pricing wrong for these uk shows.

I got this from the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park management:

‘Coming to watch the Rolling Stones perform inside the London Stadium next week? The ArcelorMittal Orbit is based right next door to the stadium and is a great addition to a day out in London! The ArcelorMittal Orbit is the UK’s tallest sculpture and also home to the world’s longest tunnel Slide and we’re extending opening hours on Tuesday 22 and Friday 25 May from 11am – 7pm so that fans can come and enjoy the attraction while getting excited for the concert. At 80metres high, the viewing platforms tower over the stadium, so there’s a good chance you can hear the soundchecks taking place while admiring the incredible views across the Park and London!
