Labour of Love has gone overboard!

I remember back in the day (2004, 2005), Labour of Love would cost around $45.
Three weeks to go, and tickets are being sold for $95?
WHY???????
People only need 1 night to get the clubbing out of their system!
A second night is totally unnecessary, and is forcing a lot of people to miss this years event.
Can't EDM events go back to sensible pricing, and a sensible duration? |

| LoL did this last year, and apparently it went over well enough that they are doing it again. I guess younger-clubbers have it in them to go all-out two nights in a row. |

I'm sure you will be able to buy single-day tickets closer to the event, just like last year. |

I am just pissed you are forced to by 2 day tickets. They did this @ the Veld festival. Yes, it's a way they make more money.
Probably enjoying the outdoors and heading to a friends cottage in Algonquin.. way better plan! |

$45 for one day and 8 years later 2 days only cost $2.50/day more? Using [[ LINK REMOVED ]]
we can see $45 in 2004 should be $52.06 currently. This means LoL adjusted for inflation is $4.56 more of a bargain than it was 8 years ago. I wasn't going to go due to the lineup but based on this information I think I might grab a couple tix, what a bargain! :p |

Go back? Not much has changed. There are still plenty of events with sensible pricing, just stop looking at the big events at the biggest clubs and big festivals.
Example.. didn't Arnej just play for $10 or something low like that? |

| When I used to go to LoL regularly it was $30 from what I remember. I sure as hell hope there are single day tickets because I want to go see PvD on the Saturday...Sunday I am not going. |

In all fairness, you are getting less for your money on any one day of Labour of Love 2012. One of day of Labour of Love this year has half the amount of rooms open and half the amount of international djs playing compared to an LOL from the mid 2000s |
