Ticket Sell Out Update - 12/01/10
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Winterfest 2011 sold out in less than a minute - that means there were far more than 700
people online waiting to buy tickets at the instant they went on sale. A large number of
you got a screen that indicated that there was a heavy load - while technically true, our
ticketing partner has informed us that this was not a sign of error and people were queued
up in order. The first 700 people to get in were successful (we are talking a matter of
seconds or milliseconds) and if a person dropped out of the pending sale the next person
in line was able to get in on the sale. This has become a natural lottery system of sorts
and in order to keep Winterfest intimate and accessible, the MN Craft Brewer's Guild
does not want to increase attendance levels to meet current demand for our festival.
We apologize if there was any perception of unfairness or technical error, the system did
function correctly and we are excited by the level of enthusiasm our state has for our
Craft Breweries and Brew Pubs.
