The Peaks Biggest Party! For one weekend a year, the stunning Peak District countryside becomes home to Y Not Festival. Since 2006, when it began life as an overspilling house party in the deepest, darkest Derbyshire; there has been steady, organic growth. 20 years on, we still have the same ethos at heart. Great people, having a great time, makes a great festival. With panoramic countryside views, amazing music, comedy and cabaret, family-friendly activities galore, and more quality food and drink than you can shake a stick at... all you need to bring is yourself, some wellies and a killer fancy dress outfit.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Y NOT at 5.0 against Ontapp Tickets's 1.0. Ontapp Tickets's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 33%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Y NOT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Y NOT's written reviews are positive against 50% of Ontapp Tickets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Y NOT ships an update every 3 weeks, Ontapp Tickets every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
