BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by charliem on Aug 22, 2015 9:05:44 GMT 1, I can't wait for all of the angry posts when people realize that there is no print. Then again I expect ebay to be awash with program and shirt listings today.
We got a print at the show yesterday. Not a Banksy, but a print by James Joyce (like the cover of the programme) so I think there will be others released... Not 100% sure though!

Check back after 11 when the doors open for something more interesting

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by kevkevkev on Aug 22, 2015 9:45:24 GMT 1, all I keep seeing are the same 10-15 images. is that's all there is?
do you choose which slot you want when you queue up? so even if you wanted the evening one youd have to queue up in the morning to get a ticket?

If you are using an automated system to refresh the page please turn it off for the benefit of everybody. There are plenty of tickets available through the run. Thank you for your interest. to those boys earlier up top using auto refresh. turn the f**kers off please.
6 Million a minute............ Really ?
I couldn't find accurate figures but doubt it's anywhere near 5 mil a minute.
www.trafficestimate.com/dismaland.co.uk
Banksy has turned into an urban street version of the Disney Corp.
Would have been nice for him to have encouraged people to tag the outside walls while queuing up etc.
The Sindrella pumpkin coach crash if by Banksy will sell for Koons type prices to some mega rich collector with bad taste.
I can't see Walt Disney getting annoyed because he is dead but no doubt their legal people are looking at everything even though they have no case as art should parody everything and amuse and dissapoint.

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by 11 on Aug 22, 2015 9:54:43 GMT 1, Chuffed to bits that everyone that came down got In last night and have never seen such a large group of forumites in one place....all with a delirious giddy look b their faces - me included
The whole experience was on another level. from the first contact with stewards and ticket handlers - 'get over here' 'don't smile' 'did I say you could touch my door - I'll tell you what you can and can't do'
Some actually thought the staff were just rude without realising that was the whole point
Into security - an airport security room made entirely in cardboard by Barminski - being searched by a cardboard scanner and forced to look into the 'cameras'
And then into dismaland - fucking wow. Grotty castle, burnt out ice cream van wierd and wonderful bits everywhere - too much to take in in one go....so me and Johnnyh are back in the queue too, Cornish and LHA somewhere ahead but we'll all be getting together again so if anyone is coming in today get in touch on the meet-up thread
I missed a few bits last night so will finish the experience today and will be back again in a few weeks
Loads of photos but so have many others so will start to share - we've been updating insta too so there will be a few pics there
This is not to be missed !!

106,000 hits - I'd be more inclined to think 6mil is more realistic than 100k hits - every f5 counts as a hit

Edit: Plus it'd be a nice reward for him, after I made him f5 for an entire day yesterday.

I'm sure team Banksy's security won't get heavy and ask them to move on.

Thinking of driving down overnight tonight 500 mile round trip from middlesbrough getting there about 7am to those forum members that were there this morning do you think this gets me there early enough.
Did you have to re-queue once you picked up your tickets and was it straight in pretty quickly once open at 11am.
Any other tips appreciated : )

Yes, poor excuses I know. Would some kind forum members please post some photos, the more the better. I'd particularly like to see all the Banksy pieces, especially any canvases or flat art in the exhibition tents. I still would like to see all the other artists work as well. Or if anyone has any links to some good image galleries of the show, I'd love to see them.
