Well it just gave me the option of buying tickets for Wednesday, so I think there might still be some floating around.
From what I've noticed they do drop small batches fairly often soon after they've gone to Not Available but after about an hour if none have come back on then that's it.

Front page of Dismaland website says sold out for the latest batch of tickets so guess they have all gone!

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Sept 16, 2015 10:25:45 GMT 1, Would have been nice to be warned not to wait for weekend. Anyway has anyone bought from eBay? Just worried as whats to stop people selling the tickets multiple times? Is the only way to beat this to ensure you are near the front of the queue and thus first to have them scanned?
That's why if you buy from a ticket agency they cover no entries.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Sept 16, 2015 8:51:23 GMT 1, Thanks.....don't know them! Not portishead though is it! Indeed not. They are though one of Bristol's finest and legends that have widely influenced lots of artists from Bristol (and beyond) if not in sound, definitely in attitude. The line-up that night is pretty damned solid. If you're going, try and give them all a chance, you never know you might just enjoy them! Regardless, have fun Nice one and if anyone doesn't enjoy Geoff Barrow's set they will need their heads examined.

Anyone have any more info. Chicken in a basket! Been misinformed mate, Geoff Barrow told me himself no PH only his announced DJ set.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Sept 7, 2015 9:18:34 GMT 1, He's from Florida and normally sells barbies. Recently changed his location to Cardiff to shift his fake dismaland tat. Well now he's taking the proverbial piss. "YOU ARE BIDDING FOR A TRAFFIC CONE WITH A BANKSY LOGO SPRAYED ON AND SOMETHING ELSE LOOKS LIKE SY OR SJ, WE CAME ACROSS THIS ON SATURDAY NIGHT WAS ON A STAG IN WESTERN SUPER MARE AND THIS ENDED UP IN OUR MINI BUS NOT FAR FROM BANKSY'S DISMALAND.ITS A 75 CM TALL ONE" And his location for this item is now listed as WESTERN and not Cardiff, so he's moving about a bit. Or just reading this forum. YOU'RE. TAKING. THE. PISS. So far, you've sold some "mystery" defaced dollar bills, stamped Dismaland, which were handed to you by a mysterious stranger. You've bought a sprayed canvas from the Dismaland gift shop, that nobody else on the planet has seen or reported. Now you've found a traffic cone with "Banksy" stencilled on it while out on a stag night in Western Super Mare. I'm calling bulls**t on this. I wish the parasites would f**k off with this fake s**t. Grr! *shakes fist
He could of at least spelt Weston correctly! These scammers need to eat some alphabet spaghetti before they do their listings! You do get good entertainment value out of these listings

When we walked away he threw us a badge which kinda made us feel like we'd won anyway and it was far easier bringing that home than the anvil! The badge reads 'Strive for excellence'. Haha Are they giving out badges now instead of the 'meaningless rubber bracelet'? Got a pic?

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Sept 5, 2015 21:30:57 GMT 1, Home from last nights escapades..what a mother load of a comedown this is! I wish this would just stay open forever and become Dismaland - Banksy HQ. We got to see what we missed last week this time, Gallery and the Caravan (what a mistake that was after a pizza!). Grim reaper was so freaky but fun doing his thing to Stayin' Alive, Cauty's work was incredible, absolutely massive (he said it has been increased in size on his website but not sure when this was) some serious man hours spent on that. Staff were on top of their game last night almost as if they were trying to make a special night with Fatboy Slim and Run the jewels as dismal as possible! The Duck-in-muck staff had my son trying for about 30 minutes constantly throwing ducks at ones he was trying to hook which in the end had him so frustrated he asked if he can just hook the pelican in the middle instead to which he got an obvious reply! In the end they just gave him the fish finger for being their most persistent player. Next up we went to try and bag some bling, at first their was a lad on their who had 'no rules' when i asked him. Knock over the cans was the only instruction so after a couple of pointless attempts with the cork gun my son whispers to me what about using a stone (i was shocked he even thought of it but win at all costs was the order of the day I'm ashamed now to say) so he did just that, the guy said well done and handed him the two chains! We had one more shot and now he said use the cork this time and i said to Jamie just throw the gun in but we lost our nerve and took our loot. Next up was the unbeatable Anvil, again i asked the rules and he said 'knock over the Anvil with the Anvil' i was in pure bad dad mode by now so just said to Jamie to jump over pick the smaller one up and knock the other one off!' Luckily common sense resumed just in time and the safety implications of a ten year old trying to lift a mega heavy lump of metal to knock over another even more heavy one flashed in front of my eyes. Music wise it was superb, when we were in the gallery i saw Geoff Barrow of Portishead with RTJ, Portishead have been my favourite band and i finally got to meet an absolute legend in my eyes which was worth the trip alone. FBS had the crowd rocking playing out of the bar by the stage even when he dropped the 'Let it go' song from frozen, bizarrely. RTJ were incredible, the energy and the hardcore rap has to be admired even if like me its not your favourite genre. People were crowd surfing, even a member of staff and at one stage Killer Mike had to ask the crowd to take a step back as some girls were getting a bit cramped down the front. They shut it down at 11pm which we thought was strange as last friday it was 1am but who knows was it just so everyone had to leave with a little dissapointment..still a wicked night and hope to do it all again for Massive Attack.
Ps. If you do bribe-a-kid to bag a balloon make sure their under 14 first as thats the rule..apparently.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Aug 31, 2015 9:39:16 GMT 1, That's right. I don't think anyone should begrudge a disabled child going to the front a a queue. There are plenty of disabilities that are not obvious. A wheelchair is not a pre requisite! Is needing a mars bar every hour a pre-requisite? any way, im not going to go on about it, thats just what happened. Even the security guard was cringing. also there was plenty of kids patiently waiting their turn watching them as well. I think even the woman was embarassed after she did it as she would not turn around to the queue. She was probably embarrassed because she felt the same discomfort from a********* like you we ourselves have felt on many occasions due to our son having a condition that prevents him from having the patience we all take for granted. But thankfully he is still 100 times the man that you are, standing in your queue casting down your ill judged opinion. Next time why don't you stop and use that 'Guardian' brain of yours.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Finsbury on Aug 29, 2015 22:08:03 GMT 1, Last night was fooooookin incredible...Looking at the various pics taken i was easily fooled into thinking there wasn't a huge amount and we might struggle to fill our time between 7-1am. How wrong we were, even in that time we managed to miss the gallery and the caravan. Mind you Mos def and DJ Yoda played their part in all the shenanigans! Yoda was amazing - I've never seen a DJ set like it (prob out of touch these days) but to see a set played both by sound and video was mental?! Scratching vinyl but also scratches the video at the same time! wow. We took our two boys though and they both thought it was amazing, young (and old) minds were fully opened, engaged and many questions asked as soon as we got through the doors, no 'hurry up we wanna go' malarky which for them is a first! This was and will be the best Amusement park we ever see. Hence we're going back again on Friday! RIP Xbox.
