Members meeting, when will tickets be available?
Discussion
Ed Moses said:
Just looking at the Goodwood ticket website and availability is shown as good or very good over the weekend. This after ticket sales were opened up to the waiting list after the core GRRC membership.. At this point it does not look like a membership only event?

It's not a membership only event at present however tickets are higher than in previous years at this time we are led to believe. Although despite some of my rants it doesn't really matter as long as the event keeps running and people are willing to participate. Ed
Indeed I'm not really sure what the problem is. They presumably set a capacity that allows them at the very least to break even, and if they can't sell that number to members and future members what else are they supposed to do?
It's not as though tickets are cheap, and in my experience they only actively promote the general sale tickets to people who have attended Goodwood events in the past (such as me).
I don't see the 'great divide' that some seem to worry about, I'm sure some members make less effort to 'dress up' than some general folk, and if it's as cold as last year it all becomes a bit of an irrelevance anyway.

its because the GRRC membership get "miffed" because they think they aren't getting anything for the £££ they spend every year in fees....

I assume the ID plaque is for members only?
Im on the waiting list and been to both previous MM since the reintrodction, got my tickets through today but only cardboard 74mm badges.
Not as good as the metal ones the past two years
Can't wait though, excited now they have arrived
ID plaque is for members, last year the cardboard badges were used for weekend entry. This year they are used for members only and general public will have cardboard for single or both days.

Does anyone have 2 saturday tickets for 74MM please? I can arrange collection if required.
I have two guests coming in from Germany and they would really love to come along on their first Goodwood MM.
Thanks so much!
Don't forget that if you are a GRRC member, tickets are still available for you to purchase (although very limited now). It's only the allocation to the public that's sold out. If you're not a GRRC member, maybe a kindhearted GRRC member could purchase for you??I have two guests coming in from Germany and they would really love to come along on their first Goodwood MM.
Thanks so much!
