Anyone know if a QR Code on the AXS App will be enough to get me in ? I haven't bothered with the BST App as it seems to be troublesome.

I'll be queueing from early for GC East, rain, hail or shine. A bit of rain won't hurt

I think BST said that the AXS app will work as well.

However, there is nothing troublesome about the BST app, it will work with your AXS login details just fine. From what I gather it's very similar to the AXS app.

Thanks Topi. I think the crucial bit is generating a valid QR code to get past the scanners and get a wrist band. Are there any additional benefits in getting the BST App. does anyone know?

Mine are on the AXS app, I had an email from ticketmaster stating to transfer the tickets over to the BST app.
I’ve got the QR code through the AXS app and can’t see the point of downloading the BST app as well to be honest.

I think what BST has been saying is while the AXS app will work for access they are encouraging you to download the BST app for event updates etc.

I downloaded the BST app.
Then connect with email and pw I used for booking
In return I saw a QR code changing every minute ! No way to print it neither picture it. Just in case the app decides not to work on D day. For many reasons. My frebch phone can refuse to work in UK, the network can be unavailable, battery can die, ...
That is very stressfull.
Any idea to exchange that with a stupid paper to print ?

The QR code refresh still works even if you aren't connected to the internet. I tested it. I have the AXS app.

I must use the AXS app for Hyde Park 2, but O2 Venue App for Hyde Park 1. Anyone else experiencing this? I finally got the AXS app working, but can't figure out this O2 App.

Why can't you use the BST-app?

For the first show I bought thru AXS, for the second I bought thru Ticketmaster. And they don't deliver tickets to the same app apparently. I am a bit confused. I'm not really a smart phone user, I have to borrow one to get in. I find this whole thing stressful!

It's possible to transfer your ticket from the one app to the other.

Surely, and with a plug adaptator for UK ... because additionnal batteries are not allowed ! Well, it's probably only rock'n roll

Hello guys! I was reading about the strikes but I couldn’t understand if them could affect me.

I’m arriving to Gatwik airport the same Saturday, very early. I have to take a train from there to Victoria Station and then another to the Hyde Park.

Somebody with more knowledge about the city and the trains could help me? Thank you and vamo los stoneee!

There is no Gatwick Express service to Victoria running on Saturday.
[www.gatwickexpress.com]

Looks like your best bet will be a Southern train from Gatwick to London Bridge and then tube/bus/walk to Hyde Park.

London Bridge and Gatwick Airport
"Two trains per hour will run between London Bridge and Gatwick Airport, calling at London Bridge, Norwood Junction, East Croydon, Purley, Redhill, Earlswood, Salfords, Horley and Gatwick Airport only."

Great idea! London Bridge is a train station or a city? Or is it literally the London Bridge?

Sorry for my dummy question, but I just was there once and I don't know the city! Thank you!

London Bridge is a major train station in central south London next to the bridge.

From London Bridge station, get the Jubilee Line (tube) westbound to Green Park. Change at Green Park to the Piccadilly Line (tube) westbound to Hyde Park Corner.

Good luck with all of that given that there is a railway strike and tube strike on Saturday!

I am starting to worry about how I will get there but if it comes to it I'll drive and park somewhere an hours walk outside the area to avoid the worst of the congestion. But if you are driving be warned that traffic is usually terrible and on Saturday will be significantly worse, with numerous large events taking place and no trains or tube. Buses might be OK but I'd assume extremely busy and will be caught up in traffic congestion outside of bus lanes. Getting a Boris Bike might be a better solution.

All I can say is plan your journey very carefully with fall back options and check (and re-check) the various train operator websites.

Hey all,

I'm super excited for the show(s) It will be my 8th time seeing the Stones live which is wild but so exciting.

What time is anyone in the Gold section getting there? Doors open at 2pm so what time are other people planning on getting there?

as far as i understand there is NOT a full tube strike on saturday

only a network rail strike (though with SOME tube disruption)

the full tube strike is only today, tuesday

overview: [www.theguardian.com]

tfl (tube operator) advice: [tfl.gov.uk]


some of the pertinent info:

Saturday 25 June

Due to the national rail strike, disruption is expected on the following sections of line:

Bakerloo line - Queens Park to Harrow and Wealdstone
District line - Richmond and Wimbledon branches (sevices will only operate between 07:30 and 18:30)

There is a planned closure on the Waterloo & City line on Saturday 25 June.

There are Friday and Saturday night strikes on the Central, Jubilee and Victoria lines.


for details on saturday's disruption, check your route here: [tfl.gov.uk]

Some trains are running with limited frequency, incl trains between Gatwick and London Bridge.

My daughter's train was meant to be running according to the operators website this morning. What happens on the ground is a different matter so she didn't make it to college. Hence my comment about not only planning but also having a backup plan.

Agree. I would not rely on the remnant trains, too risky.

I've been down to Epsom Station which is 5 minute walk away,and not a single train running on June 21st,23rd and 25th.

Three buses to get to Hyde Park area.

Not looking good from where I live.

Is there a map to see the locations of entrance for each area?

Talks back on tomorrow.

If anything agreed it would be too late for Thursday, but Orishas for Saturday, fingers crossed, well everything crossed.

Not sure about that. Would seem so,but can't hurt to reach out to BST on their social to make sure.

In theory they should be back up and running but of course there will be over-spill of disruption from the previous day. So do take care and plan ahead if you can, but you should be OK if you allow plenty of time for your journey and expect some delays or cancellations.

It’s really good to know the boys are given 2 hrs and 15 mins. IIRC last time they were there they were given only 1 hr and 45 mins on the timetable and the information caused a lot of commotion among the IORRers, although they eventually ended up playing over 2 hrs.

I’m greatly looking forward to seeing Phoebe Bridgers and War On Drugs, too. Fantastic lineup — it makes up well enough for missing out the new stage.
