Admission prices can ruin things,  many years ago I wanted to take my young daughter to a circus that was in town; it would be fun and of some excitement but when we got to the admission gate the price was way high which pissed me off and I didn't pay.  Anyway 'they' know the have got most people with leverage since most people would just cave and pay their price since its for their kid.  At other events and at other times I did pay but not that day.

When we used to run our festival it was 'alternative'   also in the area of cost... we deliberately worked things to make it affordable to those  on low income, or no income . All sorts of options could be available  from signing up to being a worker or clean up team , to sneaking in, to being lax on the entry gate . 

 

If you were honest about that and 'up front' you could negotiate . But, as some are , they had a lot of money and would sneak in anyway . That started to happen too much . So one year we we blocked the old track in along the river side with all the prickle bushes,  lantana , spiky branches that the field outskirts had been  cleared of .  I knew some people would battle their way through anyway .  So at the end of that I got a little card table and chair and sat there with cash box and tickets ; people would emerge scratched and bedraggled out the 'sneak in ; only to see me there .... '' Two adults is it ?  That will be $70  thank you ... by the way, there is a much easier route in if you follow the path from the car park to the front gate  ''    :)
