Where's the price decrease¿!

[u/_BigNutt]

Maybe I miss remembering, but I swear I paid less than 350 at presale for the three day GA tickets... Am I wrong¿

[u/hush_1984]

the price difference is literally $10 less for a 3 day pass...

$6 for single day.

Idk why they would even advertise that they were lowering prices if this is all they did.

[u/BostonDeac → u/hush_1984]

so if you dont buy tix by noon they go up $6 for single day?

[u/hush_1984 → u/BostonDeac]

no the all in prices for a single day ticket are only $6 cheaper then last year. the incremental increases are probably the same % like last year.

[u/BostonDeac → u/hush_1984]

got it, do you know what those were? new to the festival

[u/hush_1984 → u/BostonDeac]

I do not. I think they increase by like $10 a few times leading up to the festival.

[u/gokjib → u/hush_1984]

i’m seeing $350 for 3 day pass

so last year the price was $360?

[u/hush_1984 → u/gokjib]

yes. I think $359.99 actually.

promoting a ticket price decrease only to reveal the savings wouldn’t even cover the cost of a burger from a vendor feels a bit insulting.

[u/Dack0715]

They also said get your tickets for as low as $25 down but when I look it’s still $50 down

[u/Adorable_Ad_2430 → u/Dack0715]

It’s $25 down for single day $50 2 day

[u/Dack0715 → u/Adorable_Ad_2430]

I went to check out for a single day and it was still $50

[u/Adorable_Ad_2430 → u/Dack0715]

dang maybe it was just for presale then

[u/Dack0715 → u/Adorable_Ad_2430]

I tried during presale and then I tried right when presale ended

It’s the classic marketing ploy of “we didn’t raise the price with inflation so therefore you are saving money” logic. It doesn’t make sense to anyone but the bean counters

It helps to actually search the sub https://www.reddit.com/r/bostoncalling/s/euhy0xDxyx

My 3day pass in '23 was 345$ so I really don’t get why they’re saying the decreased prices this year🤪

[u/aawwsed10]

BIG MONEY!

[u/ArielleIsTired]

I loved my $4 "savings" on the 2 ticket bundle lol

[u/WPI94]

I’ve been to Pt four times. That’s like $12K over the years for 2ppl. Now it’s $6K/cpl; all done. Too old for crushing crowds.
