Taskmaster rip off

As a taskmaster fan I eagerly awaited the taskmaster live experience where you will get to compete in taskmaster style tasks with friends/ family. Turns out most tickets are £100 pp* for 65mins. That's £4-500 for a family day (hour) out !! I think this is either quite frankly greedy of the organisers or they have miscalculated affordable costs to pass on. AIBU to think they should rethink their ticket prices and not be such twats?

*a few tickets mid week appeared to be £50 but v few.

I think, somewhat irrationally, I think of little Alex Horne and Taskmaster as "good guys". This is based on nothing of course. Turns out "they" are completely out of touch.

I think it’s a big bag of shite.
I stupidly thought I was getting live tickets for the actual show with the comedians. An hour of fucking about a rank garden listening to an iPad give me some instructions . Hell no!

They should rename the website “we saw you coming”

hopefully people will see through it!!

Yup. Signed up and didn't get it either.

Like the Wonka festival experience in Glasgow 🤣

Far too expensive, I was expecting half the price! Needless to say won't be purchasing, but sure many will.

I was so excited to have an email saying I'd "won" the ticket ballot. Less so when i saw the price.

That will be snapped up for corporate team building

McSteamyorMcdreamy · 19/06/2024 21:08

I thought I was entering a ballot to be given a group freebie....was literally wetting myself this morning when I got an email to say I was a winner.

Suffice to say my excitement was extremely short lived 😂🙄

Wow! I hadn't got round to clicking on the link yet but that's bonkers

Mummatron3000 · 19/06/2024 21:05
