I got on the list, so hopefully I'll get the email with ticket dates soon...
One quick question to whose who know, when you have priority membership, do you actually get priority tickets to the live shows and get in? I know it says that they're not issuing them, but some people on the forum (in last year's threads) said that they got priority tickets...
Hopefully they will be doing tickets for the Wembley Arena Final as well - just found out that the winners aren't getting tickets to both final shows, half of the winners are going on Saturday, half are going on Sunday, which leaves 7000 for Applause Store people!!!”

I haves spoken to Phil a friend of mine who works for applause store, there getting 1000 tickets for each day allocated for final. NOT PRIORITY!!! Depending on what production friend n family are going there could only be 400 or maybe 200 seats available. All stand by tickets.

Also how did you get tickets for the live final, I'm gold member too, but I have not heard anything from them.”

Yes your right. I've been to 3 live shows and 1 final. I got there at 7am and was right at the front. And got in.

But for the final I was second and got there at 6 am. And stil got turned away. This week is quarter finals

So BE EARLY AS POSS!!!! Trust me!!!

Me personally if I was you and had tickets. I'd be there at 7 latest. But that's me. You just dnt know how many seats are left. If you defo want to get in which I presume you do. Get there about 7. But it's a long wait all day. But the conestestants sometimes come
Out for a fag n tht. Lol

Just back from tonight's show at the studio, was an amazing time!
Got there at about 9:45, was 7th in the queue. Just so you know, the rule about leaving the queue for loo/coffee breaks is that as long as there's at least one of your party in the queue, it's fine to leave, as long as EVERYONE'S in the queue by 16:00. The Applause Store staff arrive then and start checking tickets and IDs and give you hand stamps. Then at about 18:10 they started letting people into the premises of the studio, but not inside. And then at about half past, the doors of the studio open and they let everyone in, I was sitting on the right hand side from the judges (if you look from the audience). At about 19:15, they started pre-recording Olly and the Muppets' performance for tomorrow night, and then at 20:00, we went live! Roycey (the warm-up guy) beforehand gave us a "briefing" of sorts, that we all stand up and cheer during the performances, and sit down and cheer during the judges comments etc. You have to switch off your phone (although Amelia's dad's phone rang) and NOT take it out of your pocket, and no photos as well. You then stay for the first 2 parts of Xtra and leave at about 22:15. Overall, a great night!

I also went tonight with friends. We were so late we KNEW we wouldn't get in. We started queuing at 6:10pm and litrally just made it!

I was really surprised they pre recorded Olly's performance. Do they always do that?

You started queuing at 6:10pm? WOW! Lucky you! Looks like everyone from the non-priority queue got in the...
They normally pre-record one of the celeb performances in advance, according to the security they pre-recorded Justin Bieber's Semi-Final Results performance last week!

Oh, and also, LOVED Roycey's gags - e.g. to the cleaner at the X Factor house who was at the audience who said Frankie's a sweetheart - "I know, but that's cause you shagged him!" or something along those lines!
