Holy Mary! I just hope the adult store on the motorway doesn’t post pics on social media of large purchases….
Have you been buying mods for your James Bond machine when it arrives...?!
People who stay for 3 nights, do you usually stay for the Thursday night or the sunday one?
More and more seem to be staying on Thursday night. Traffic isn’t as bad and it is a good chilled night before Friday setup.
Sunday is celebration night after the weekend of pinball. Mainly staff and those with long journeys.
Some stay all four nights.

I assumed Thursday was only open to machine donators and the event staff. Can anyone with VIP tickets come and play machines on the Thursday? Or is that an additional charge?
There are no machines available to play on Thursday evening. It’s just a relaxing night in the bar
We eat, we drink, we talk, we laugh and we carry on.
Thursday is a good night.

The charity machines are generally set up by Chris & Daz on the the Friday. It's best to assume that there will be no machines to play on Thursday but as Phil says it's a nice evening for a chat and a beer.
The charity ones were setup for the Thursday this year. Seemed to be plenty of none Pinfest people on them as well.

Booked. For both me and my son. And he said 2 of his friends from Exeter uni were also going to come to pinfest.
Took a while to work out that for the hotel booking you need to choose option 0 on the phone so you speak directly with hotel reception and not option 1 which puts you through to centralised booking service who don't have the special rate.

That's crazy! Thanks for checking, Peter.
So that means if it was previous years, the allocation would be sold out already.

That is excellent news! I have a feeling that the up and coming Pinfest is going to be a monster event!
Booked! See you on Friday lunchtime!
