Locals to get best ticket deal for Oban Live 2018
READERS of The Oban Times will, again, be able to buy tickets to Argyll’s largest music event, Oban Live 2018, at a heavily discounted rate before anyone else.
In next week’s Oban Times, readers will have 48 hours to take up an exclusive ticket offer, from 11am on Thursday November 2 to 11am on Saturday November 4.
This is in advance of the ‘early bird’ tickets to the two-day, open-air music concert going on sale to the general public at noon on Saturday November 4.
In The Oban Times offer, readers will receive a further 20 per cent off the already discounted early bird ticket price. Prices in the offer start from as little as £20. Two-day standard adult tickets will cost just £48, instead of £60 in the general early bird offer.
Readers will be able to redeem the offer online via an exclusive website or in person at specified times at the BID4Oban office using a special coupon.
Both the coupon and exclusive weblink, along with full details, will be printed in The Oban Times on November 2. Readers are advised to get in quick with only 48 hours to redeem the offer while tickets last.
The Oban Times has confirmed it will continue to be media partner for the hugely popular event following its success in 2016 and 2017.
Oban Live has entertained almost 8,000 attendees each year (7,770 in 2016, 7,837 in 2017) with a mix of traditional Scottish and Celtic-rock artists and international superstars such as KT Tunstall and Toploader.
Its impact over the weekend brings £1.1 million to the local economy.
Naomi Hoolahan, event director for Oban Live, said: ‘We are incredibly excited to announce details of our special local Oban Live 2018 ticket offer.
‘Last year’s audience brought so much energy to the event and we can’t wait to welcome our 2018 audience to Mossfield Stadium next year. A massive thanks to everyone in the area who has supported the event and for the warm welcome they have given visitors from all over the world. 2018 is sure to be another cracker!’
