Battersea Park Jubilee Festival

Ditto! I need 3 adult tickets. And happy to pay more! Odd that so many locals are ticketless. It was not well advertised and sold out so quickly!

It really annoys me! I couldn't really give a toss about their festival (which will just be an opportunity to get us all to spend loads of money anyway). I just want to visit my local park with my famly to watch what is supposed to be a wonderful free celebratory event for everyone.

Having read all the posts about needing tickets for Battersea Park this weekend I realise that my incredibly smart plan of just pitching up to Albert Bridge and enjoying the festivities might be shared by the rest of SW London and beyond!

So - where do you think is a good place to watch with 2 small kids? Am I mad to even think of battling the scrum on Albert Bridge? Will I even be able to watch it there?

I'm feeling like I'm a bit late to the Jubilee party... everyone else seems to have big plans and I'm going to be waving my solitary flag in the garden

I might be able to help with some answers to a few of the posts.

After much calling round today, I found out that every person - even a 1 year old - does need a ticket.

Also, do check on the Pageant website to find out which bridges are open and closed. Some of them - and I think Albert Bridge is one - are closed to the general public.

I wish I could have been the bearer of happier news. I hope everyone manages to watch the Pageant or get the tickets they want!
