MORE ABOUT THE BALLOT
The Subscriber Ticket Ballot has been used for the previous five festivals at the Supernatural Amphitheatre to get tickets into the hands of subscribers in an equitable and stress-free manner. The ballot is simple, fair and efficient.
It’s done online and via email.
1. Enter the Ballot before it closes.
2. You will be notified via email by Aunty Meredith as to whether or not you have been successful in the ballot. Two rounds of offers will be made – on August 19 and August 28.
3. If successful, you will be emailed a unique alpha-numeric code (a “Meredith Key”) which you can use to log in to our secure Online Box Office within a 6 day period, purchase up to 3 tickets, and have them sent to you.
If you don’t have a credit card, that’s ok - we offer PayPal.
If you are not drawn in the ballot, do not despair….there are two further allocations of tickets to go on sale.
The Ballot Application Process
Please note that the speed of your internet connection doesn’t matter – dialup or broadband are both fine. When applications close, all the applications go into a ballot pool, and successful applicants are selected from the pool of subscribers until the allocation is exhausted.
The successful applicants are then emailed a unique alpha-numeric code (called a “Meredith Key”) which acts like a password. They then have 6 days to go online to our secure site, log in using the Meredith Key and make the purchase. No rush, no fuss. No stress. No competing with the rest of Australia for tickets. Each Meredith Key can only be used once.
Many long-running festivals internationally now use this system, it is popular because it is quick and easy, and in this case you would only be competing for tickets with other Subscribers.
You don’t even need a credit card – we also offer PayPal. But you must set up a PayPal account in advance – it takes about 5 days. All you need is a bank account in your name, and of course enough money in it for the tickets when the time comes to pay.
Subscribers who enter the ballot will know whether or not they have been successful in getting tickets in the Ballot before the later allocations go on sale.
