(Apologies if this ought to be in the classifieds or someplace else...)

I have one, need a second one. If anyone has a cancellation, I'm looking to pay face value for a camping pass for Bleu (or any discount you deem appropriate :-) )

Try www.justtickets.co.uk

They have 1 Blue pass left.

We were waiting for the TVR club booking forms, but they haven't come out yet.

We need to passes for anywhere, preferably Maison Blanche !!!

Good luck

This was down on page 2,467 or so... I'm still looking for one so I thought I'd bump it up.

Buy one on the gate - always seems to work...

Buy one at what gate? the gate to the campground?

Indeed.
A mate of mine has been going to Bleu for a number of years and never books in advance. I was a bit suspicious of this but went with his group last year. All done at the gate of the campsite on arrival. Lovely.

Is that "pass a 20-euro bill to the guy at the gate and he'll let you in" or is that an honest, legit camping pass? I believe what you are saying, but don't understand how they control numbers if they do that. Suppose you bought a ticket in advance and get there late (Saturday, for example) and there's no more room in the Inn because they've let in 500 people who hadn't reserved? Why wouldn't they let you buy those spots in advance (garanteed income versus just hoping people will come and buy them at the gate)?

I hear what you are saying, but it doesn't make an awful lot of sense...

Agreed, but as there are no marked pitches in Bleu, they can cram in as many people as are willing to squash into every odd corner. Best to arrive early and circle the wagons to reserve a bit of elbow room...
