Despite the initial criticisms of the Paléo line up this year – tickets sold out in a new record time.
The sale started yesterday at noon and 21 minutes later – they were gone – all 200,000.

But some lineups sold out faster – the first, and most expensive with Mika, went in ten minutes and then a minute later the night with Burna Boy and Sean Paul was full.
If you missed out – all is not lost. Next week the ticket exchange will be opened so those who have too many can sell them – at official prices – and there are always 1,500 available at the door during the festival.
When the line up was first revealed, many commentators complained there wasn’t a headline act to make it stand out from the other festivals in the country.
