Where could I buy Shuttleworth Uncovered tickets

Hi all,

Made a bit of a mistake this evening:

Bought a return flight and two nights in London with BA, and then went online to buy tickets for the Shuttleworth Collection Uncovered Finale next weekend - only to find it is sold out!

Aaargh! Not too often I get a weekend off, and should have bought earlier. Or at least arranged my tickets the other way around!

So, can anyone recommend a site where people would sell surplus tickets, like I believe folk do for concerts?

Have you asked about flying in? I flew in last year to one of their displays at fairly short notice and the place was rammed with folk. Maybe they have a different allocation for visitors who arrive by air. Don't know for sure obviously but there didn't seem to be any problem when I rang them up.

Looking at the flying in info it says that there is no landing fee
but please note if you are flying into Old Warden airfield today you will need an event ticket
and I cannot see a seperate ticket option, so it looks like even flying in, if it says sold out you can't get a ticket.

There's no landing fee anyway, they scrapped it this year. Interesting that you can't get in on a fly in basis on display days, I'll have to be at bit more previous for the next one! Trouble is of course for these 'buy your ticket first' affairs which usually entail buying quite a bit before is that you can never guarantee the weather. I've been burnt once that way after having to cancel a trip to a display that was too far to be practicable by car.
