Hi There,
I work for Wirral Hospice, St John’s and it was me who came up with the “Wirral Rocks” concept, so hopefully I can answer some of your questions!
Both Standing and Seated tickets are now on sale. They are currently on sale at a special early bird price of £35.50 plus booking fees. We decided to price the standing and seated tickets the same as we felt it was fair that way, each type of tickets has its advantages and disadvantages.
In the New Year, the early bird offer will end and the ticket price will be £40.50 plus booking fees.
I think this represents good value for money, I am a huge Status Quo fan myself and I reviewed all of the ticket stubs I have collected over the past 20 years of Quo gigs in setting the price! (I paid £42.50 plus booking fee to see them at the Echo Arena on 1st December.)
To get the “early bird price” you need to use the drop down menu and select “early bird tickets” which is currently the only option available! If you look at the “price range” link it shows the full £40.50 price. Sorry about that –it’s just the way Ticketmaster works if you sell tickets at a special reduced price at first! We are selling all tickets via Ticketmaster as we just don't have the resource to handle sales ourselves.
The stage is in front of the Kop facing out, so standing is on the pitch. We are currently selling seats in the Johnny King Stand (Borough Road) and the Main Stand. If we manage to sell them all we will release seats in the Cowshed. Obviously the cowshed seats will be furthest away from the stage, so it is fair to only release them if /when the others are sold out.
The easiest way to buy tickets is to go to our site which is at
http://www.wirralrocks.com/(Also If you type Wirral Rocks into Google it comes up high in the listings so it is very easy to find)
There is a link to buy the tickets on the Wirral Rocks site as well as some more info. Also check back on the site as in a few weeks we will be announcing another artist to perform on Friday 20th May.
I am very excited to be bringing this event to Wirral, like many of you I think it’s about time Wirral had a big event like this!
Tranmere Rovers are providing the ground free of charge to us, so we are extremely grateful to them!
All of the proceeds from this event will go to Wirral Hospice, St John’s, a Registered Charity
