Writing: some examples

Formal email asking for information


Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am writing about the Fairfield Festival this weekend and I have a number of questions I would like to ask. 

In the advertisement you mention that there are discounts for students. Could you tell me what the discounts are and how much it would cost for 5 students for one night only, including the booking fee? 

I would also like some more details about the camping facilities. Could you let me know it there are any toilets and shower rooms at the campsite?

As there are only a couple of days to go, I imagine that it will be too late to put the tickets in the post. Would it be possible to collect the tickets, and if so, where would I need to collect them from? 

I look forward to hearing from you. 

Kind regards,

Steven Smith
