They bothered to make a splash screen with a "sold out" message.
If they could legally cram more people into the venue, they would have made a "hey, we found 500 more tickets in CCP Guard's top drawer" screen instead, and proceed to sell them.
So whoever didn't buy their tickets quickly enough, will have to wait until 2014. |

The main hall of Harpa only has capacity for 1800 people, so the available tickets would've been somewhere around that number. They can't sell any more tickets than the venue can legally hold (Yes, there are laws that cover this sort of thing). Apparently booking your flight & accomodation to Iceland BEFORE you buy the tickets for the convention which is pretty much the only reason you wanted to go there in the first place is popular. |

ONLY if you've booked and paid for your flight and hotel room BEFORE they sold out. Get ahold of customer service and expect to prove this... *insert witty saying here* twitter - @AzamiNevinyrall |

There is still quite a lot of accomodation available at that time in Reykavik. I rented a house Apparently booking your flight & accomodation to Iceland BEFORE you buy the tickets for the convention which is pretty much the only reason you wanted to go there in the first place is popular. |

yes that's true, but I was there last year, there was way more then 1800 people at fanfest.
you did make me think though and it brings up an interesting question.
how many tickets where sold this year ?
Edit: i was wrong, apparently there was just over 1000 people last year,

Those extra tickets would've been assigned before tickets were available to the public. If you buy a ticket from someone who no longer wants theirs, it's a scam. The ticket is tied to the name of the original buyer & you have to produce both the confirmation number & photo ID.

The hall isn't large enough to cram more than a certain amount of people in. I believe the hall they booked has a capacity of 1000-1500? |

This may not happen, as Own3d (or whatever it was called) no longer exists. I will be taking my action camera along though to film as much as possible.

As has been said, there are laws about putting more people into the venue than is legally allowed. If you already booked flights and accommodations before FanFest sold out, please e-mail [email protected] with details.

So what you're saying is, you expect me to lay in the comfort of my own bed with various refreshments and food items, and watch live streams from fanfest, without even having to put any clothes on, or fly to the opposite side of the globe? (I'm in Vancouver, Canada) What next, you're going to tell me that I don't have to bathe either to get all the glorious details on CCP deciding to revamp POSes afterall considering it's the most playerbase requested feature? |

You know, on a serious note, I actually kind of feel bad for Reykjavik's economy. Here they are, looking for every shot in the arm they can get to recover from the banking crisis, and here's an event that could draw hundreds or thousands of more people to their hotels, restaurants, BARS.
And we can't come, because tickets are sold out. Think this epitomizes the phrase "welp". |

Anyone who booked hotels and flights before tickets is a mong of the first order, and has more money than sense. So losing the money won't be a bad thing. |

It's limited by the size of the venue not the Icelandic government. If you want to blame someone it's CCP but I'd hazard a guess the venue is the biggest public space available.
