 DIGITAL TICKETS EMAIL

As the barcode on the original digital ticket was not always scanable, we sent a ticket with a readable barcode to all ticket buyers on Friday, 25th of August. However, this ticket accidentally had a new ticket number, so we sent a third ticket email later on Friday. Please disregard the second email and use the digital ticket on the last email. Thank you!
