Hi does anyone know what number pan fantasy is in the 2011 caribana parade
kim said on Jul. 29, 2011:

I guess? if you want to 'jump up' and 'IN' to the parade is OK...as that's what happens west of the CNE grounds. The lovely display of colours and dancers is so LOST here..just a bunch of bodies, mostly drunk, following trucks with loud music, so close the music is lost..just NOISE at that point.
kim said on Jul. 29, 2011:

ohh event is finished...I thought was evening event.
However, like most Caribana events...not run well, (from previous comments and past experience..paid for seating at the CNE grounds 4 years ago and view was mostly blocked by the music/trucks most of the time ..was so bad!) and tickets mean almost nothing. Hope Scotia can make it accessible to most ticket buyers. But will now wait for more reviews before I pay for a Ticket again.

I also have been trying to get tickets the online link doesn't work, I filled out the form and someone is suppose to get in touch with me and as of now ,no one has. I finally got through on the phone and the answer was not much help, I will have to go to their office to get the tickets, that's not good at all and it must be in cash not good..

I just came back from the event. Very disappointed to find out that one had to pay $30 at the door. Why was this price not published on the website? The people selling tickets at the door said the $25 ticket price was if you purchased online but this web page did not provide any purchasing link, nor did they provide such information.
I also noticed that there were many seats available. Perhaps if you want a greater attendance and consequently more revenue, consider dropping the price. $30 is far too expensive for what should be a family event.

Richard said on Jul. 29, 2010:

The price above says $25. Is it the same at the door?

Hello people,
If you go to the panyards, you will definitely find tickets as the members try to sell them as well.
You can pay at the door/gate if you cannot manage to get tickets before Firday night.

Thanks,
Sorry for the inconveniences you are experiences.

Hello, another frustrated pan enthusiast here. I have phoned the office number and was told I could purchase tickets online but have not been able to find the link. Will I be able to purchase tickets at the door? I'm bringing a van load of people from out of town. Thanks

Noel said on Jul. 27, 2010:

I agree with Clifton. However, last year I purchased my tickets at the Caribana office, which was located on Davenport Road just west of Avenue Road (and before Bedford Rd.). I cannot remember the exact number but it was around #250 or so, on the basement floor.
I'm also finding it frustrating that the voicemail is full.

Chantelle said on Jul. 27, 2010:

ANYWHERE ELSE selling tkts, or can we just purchase them at the door....?

Winston said on Jul. 27, 2010:

Charlie's in Mississauga has some tickets 905 896 3663

Clifton said on Jul. 26, 2010:

Hello,

I am very interested in this event, but I’m confused as to why there is no-online purchase option for tickets. There are also no directions as to how to get tickets other than the phone number listed. When I call the number I get a voice mail that is full.
Why not have tickets for sale at retail outlet like all other events, or an online shopping cart. Calling this number has become a daily frustration.

Can you please advice how I may purchase tickets for this event? (Other than calling a phone number that is not answered)
Thank you
