I'm intrigued by this, why are Friday tickets more than weekend ones? Fewer people so charge them more for the less crowded experience and to make up the revenue? It flies in the face of normal supply and demand economics but perhaps it's a genius idea.

It's been that way as long as I remember Ian.

Friday gets the non workers/pensioners, and not many kids. It's a win win.

Totally agree I went in 2019 on a Friday, it was quiet and full of pensioners. I couldn’t even get the bar staff to fetch me a cup of tea.
