Grand Prix Ticket Sales
SUPERACE replied to Beercellar1966's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
If you think that 1 day next year will be charged more than 2 days this year then I can't help you. Of course it's more profitable to run 2 back to back GPs but that isn't the norm. The cost savings this year are a bonus that they will have to do without next year. -

I agree I think there's every chance your right and I'd also be very surprised, but some seem to think that they have held some back for Wednesday. If they have it won't be many. -

Never said it did, it was a discussion of cost of a GP Vs money made. -

Yes as there's no sponshersip or TV money, for god's sake speedway fans will argue anything to put the sport down. -

No there's no contradiction, I cleared that up on my original tweet, I expect next year to be only 1 GP, so the outlay is going to be less as they are obviously not going to charge the same for 1 GP as it is for a current 2 day ticket. -

Your not taking into account sponshersip and TV money, I expect 1 night to go up but it will still be cheaper than this year. £90 is not excessive for GP Speedway. -

I wonder how many they have left for day passes, suppose we will find out Wednesday, but I'd expect they haven't left too many aside. -

Absolutely it won't cost £115 in the South stand for 1 meeting, that is fairly obvious. To be clear I'm basing it on if your going to both meetings this year not just the 1. -

According to most on here the tickets wouldn't sell at the prices quoted. There won't be two GPs every year so prices will be lower next year. -

Not sure if the east stand is 3 or 4k capacity. 1894 in Grandstand 1600 in south stand (I think) so either 6.5 or 7.5k depending on east stand size. -

That's because they will run it to make money, welcome to the real world I'm afraid. Cardiff has gone due to lack of demand, thats due to the decline of British speedway. -

Of the tickets released today there are just 171 tickets left in the south and Grandstand. 154 in the South and just 17 in the Grand Stand. 1963 tickets left in the east stand, not sure if that stand is 3k or 4k capacity (my guess is 3K). WOW. -

I do understand that, I feel Cardiff list the Speedway appeal, the meetings started to get boring. -

I agree Cardiff became stale, but unfortunately the demand wasn't there to keep it or go to somewhere like Wembley. We cant just blame WBD for that, its the state of British Speedway. -

That's your choice, the facts are the the British speedway public simply no longer back it being at a place like Cardiff. After that there is no better place than Belle Vue. I go for the speedway not the day out. -

So if they are going to sell why would they be cheaper. I'm not wealthy but i can afford it. If those prices were at another track I can choose to go or not go, that's life isn't it? But costing £168 for me and my son for 2 meetings would not alter my decision to go or not. If they all sell then they priced it right, if you cant afford those prices and others can, then again that's life. If there are 50% of tickets left then they got it wrong and that will be on them, but early sales suggest that's not the case. The only barometer on whether the pricing is right or wrong is based on final ticket sales, not your or my or anybody else's opinion. -

Really?? That's not how business works. Its supply and demand, if they sell out or a large number of them do then they got the price right, if they sell too quick then maybe there too cheap. -

Yes it's supply and demand, if people are buying then there not a rip off. I've got a family ticket in the south, it's cost me (me and son) £168 total for both nights, that's far from a rip off. -

Got my tickets 2 nights in the South stand, a family ticket, so cost for me and my lad is £84.00 a meeting, bargin price that. As for the grandstand just counted and there are 156 tickets left for both nights, and only 300 left in South stand. WOW. Seems they got those prices right. Also looking at the East stand they have already sold more tickets than they did for Nations. -

Nonsense, the event will be amazing, the size of the crowd is yet to be determined. Stick to tnt then, me I prefer live any day of the week, you don't get great life experiences from a TV set. -

Firstly will I be going, yes, it's a no brainer as it's miles cheaper for me than Cardiff because I live close. Now I will pay £180 for me and my lad in the grandstand for both nights which IMO is good value for a Grand Prix. I think the South stand pricing is pitched perfect. I do feel the prices in the grandstand are way too high and I feel the east stand is also over priced as it should be the cheaper than the South stand (no roof,view not as good). I do feel the expectations of the cost were never going to be as low as some wanted, but time will tell if the have gone too high. Some believe it will sell out, well if it does then they have priced it right. I'm not sure although I do expect much bigger interest than the SoN. -
Nope none. Absolutely none of them.

Agree on all above, Norrick only young so hopefully the consistency will come. It's just nice to see so many retained again especially after a title win.

Antics what a load of nonsense. Wouldn't swap Brady with another teams rider.
