Runefest 2025 Update
Additional Tickets Available October 8th!

When RuneFest was initially announced, we were delighted to see all 2,000 tickets sell out within minutes! Such wonderful support for the event was incredible but we know many of you were upset that youd missed out on the opportunity to attend. Now that our event planning has concluded weve been able to increase the event capacity.

It is with great pleasure that we can now confirm an additional 1,000 tickets, plus any tickets we refunded from the original 2,000, will be available from 16:00 BST on Tuesday, October 8th.

These will be the final tickets, so be sure to head over to the official RuneFest website to purchase them as they become available to secure your place!
