We would highly recommend you do not. There are a lot of people scamming customers on our social media channels. This is why we have a resale so that customers can resell their unwanted tickets back to our official ticket seller, Kaboodle. However after the resale (8 May) when we are totally sold out on the Saturday date we would still advise not to buy from sellers on our socials channels as they are likely to be scams.

We ONLY sell through our ticket site Kaboodle at www.mightyhoopla.com.

Please beware we cannot be responsible if you are scammed or sold a rogue ticket. If you have missed out on a Saturday ticket but want to come to Hoopla this year our Sunday event is still on sale from mightyhoopla.com

We would highly recommend you do not. The prices are vastly inflated at sites like Via GoGo and Stub Hub etc and we cannot guarantee they are selling on valid tickets (please note the official tickets don’t even get sent out until within a fortnight of the event).

Only buy from mightyhoopla.com or if you take a risk with another site we cannot be held responsible.
