How to get tickets?
Registration for Radio 1's Big Weekend in Maidstone has now opened - you have until 10 am on Monday 28 April to apply for tickets in our ticket ballot.

Registering will also automatically enter you into Radio 1's Big Golden Ticket competition - unless you tell us you would prefer to opt out.

The ticket ballot will be the primary way in which tickets are given away for the event and you will be asked which day you would like to attend during registration. Those who are successful will receive a pair of tickets for their chosen day. We always give preference to local residents, so tickets in the general ballot are allocated randomly, but weighted in favour of those living in Maidstone, Kent and the surrounding areas- a smaller amount will be distributed nationally.
