BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by elwheel on Aug 26, 2015 17:21:49 GMT 1, Thanks Dodcoquelicot. That could be tricky. Ticket says ID checks MAY be conducted on entry. There's bound to be a dismally acceptable reaction to impersonation?

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Tommy Tucker on Aug 26, 2015 17:22:09 GMT 1, Hey guys,
I am really looking for some tickets to this. I was unable to get some the other day as I was interviewing for a new job role. Does anyone have any?
Also do we know when the September tickets will be released?

£500 or £600 - can't remember which figure but one of those two! I'm sure someone else will confirm

I know ... Some going upstairs and already paying Dismalanf fees.. Great transactions !
Anyway , heard for a gesture later on for " basic " people ...
Maybe I am wrong ...
Should the people only wear posters when others have furs around their neck ? :-)
To queue or not to queue ?
Banksy' s paradox...
Any quotes ? :-)

Yes, they asked me. Not an interegation but they still checked.

they can't ( saw that question to Jo B. ) blame and punish people who are buying them .. It will be the double punishment : flippers ( money ) , then no entrance ! It would not be fair ...( I don't like anyway this black market )

They didn't check my ID today, think they were just trying to keep the queue moving. Checked every bag, probably spot checks on ID

in fact , it s like in big concert or festivals, even in drugs.. To break and stop the flipper phenomen you have to advert and make some trouble and anxiety in the head of the potential buyer ... (" an fifteen will really ask ID - in concerts they never checked apart one time )

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by mumo on Aug 26, 2015 20:40:50 GMT 1, Anyone gone with their kids. I'm gonna have my 6yr old son with me. Anything to really avoid? Would've been better alone but hey ho only weekend I can do.
As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I took my 4 year old son. He loved it. He thought the grim reaper was amazing. I tried to pull him away in fear that it might scare him, but he wanted to stay because he thought it was funny. I was worried about the Cinderella car crash, as he loves Cinderella, but unless your aware of the obvious Princess Di references, it's very unlikely kids will see it as anything traumatic - there's no blood or anything signifying it as a gruesome event. He was oblivious to any horror associated with this piece, despite being a pretty sensitive kid.
What really caused tears was the fact that the balloons had sold out & we didn't win a fish finger in a bag from the hook-a-duck stall!
All kids see are Ferris wheels, carousels & a depressed stormtrooper with a balloon. They're oblivious to all the suggestions of environmental disaster, celebrity death, political struggle & horse meat scandals.

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Daniel Silk on Aug 26, 2015 20:55:19 GMT 1, Ok, I can't be there, but from the photos I have seen I'm not that impressed with Dismaland. Of course you might say the whole point is to be disappointed  but I feel it looks a bit like a wasted opportunity for what could have been a really special Art event, thinking back to the Cans Tunnel and Bristol Museum shows.
Seeing the images and news reports on TV made it look a bit less like a real art event and more like some kind of "Grumpy Old Men" theme park.
I think it's edged into being more a political "Grumpy Old Men" than what could be seen as a Art event.
Sorry, just my opinion.

Go and witness it for yourself and think a bit about what you see and experience. You might learn something, particularly about yourself.

If anyone wants them they're yours. The only thing I ask is a Dismaland poster and program sent to the US. If you would also be able to pick up a shirt I can pay you the cost.
