Did anyone here get audience tickets for last night?
I was wondering if anyone here got tickets to sit in the audience for the live show and results last night. It's just I've got 4 tickets to next Saturday's show, they're not 100% guaranteed and I'd be interested to hear your experience of if you got into the studio or not. The doors open 6.30pm and I was thinking to arrive about 4.30 but am worried there will be an enormous queue and we may not get in.
Can anyone who attended last night share their experience? |

Mid morning??! Do you really have to turn up that early? Surely they don't overbook it that much? And did you go yourself as you seem to be referring to others.

Can anyone who attended last night share their experience? We arrived at 10.30am and were second in the queue i would say from about 12pm the queue definately started to get longer. There were over 200 people that did not get in last night. |

Wow. Is it worth it then? I just don't know if I can justify standing there for 7.5 hours! Do they give you any food or drink once you actually get in the studio as you are there for about 4 hours...

There's water to buy in the interval, that's all. There's a Mcdonalds round the corner so we took turns to go round there. My advice is take a cushion and wear comfortable shoes. For me, it was worth the queuing. We got really good seats too, 3 rows from the stage.
Also this year Applause Store's XF Tickets are only to fill any empty seats in the studio after everyone else hence why they say reserve only tickets. So I was hoping, if like you to get there early, then I'd stand a hcance of getting in. Don't mind where I sit as long as I get in. |

When I went to the BGT final we got there about half 11 and was about 4th 5th in line. By about 1,2 there was a huge que.
Lucky there was 4 of us and we made friends with a couple of people in front and we took turns to look after things and go to McDonalds. Well worth the wait. Applied for X Factor tickets on the 8th Nov

Is XF and BGT filmed in the same studio as it looks like it from the Xtra Factor studio and the BGMT studio and they just change the set, lol?

Lots of the acts came out and posed for photos etc and were very chatty it was pretty funny watching people arrive. The main reason we went last night were as fans of Leon so if he is on again next year I might consider it. But all in all we had a great time. |

I've applied for November 15th and if I get them, am planning on taking the same precautions I did for the Big Brother final. We were at the BB Final for 10:30am and were like 4th in line but by the time priority, production guests etc get there you really are bottom of the food chain.
Also this year Applause Store's XF Tickets are only to fill any empty seats in the studio after everyone else hence why they say reserve only tickets. So I was hoping, if like you to get there early, then I'd stand a hcance of getting in. Don't mind where I sit as long as I get in. There was over 200 people turned away from the show i think maybe about 30 or 40 got in. |

![]() There are several different lines one for VIPS one for family and friends, priority tickets and then standby. There was prob about 50 priority tickets and lots of family and friends - apparently the bands get 4 passes per band member but the solo acts get more. We also saw quite a few XF contestants that didnt make it through including Alan Turner, Cyril and Louis GF. |

It was totally worth it but im not sure i would do it again. No they do not give you anything but there is a mcdonalds around the corner so you can get food and drink and it was good fun in the queue.

Sorry love, but why on earth would Leon be on again next year? He will be well and truly forgotten by then.
There is no need to be so nasty I was offering my experiences about yesterday and there is absolutely no need for you to but in and be so patronising and nasty. |
