What Happened to Wish 4 Ticket After Dragons’ Den?
Wish 4 Ticket appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2012 (Series 10). The business was a seasonal online ticket service. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2015.
The Pitch
Melanie Hurley walked into the Den in 2012 with a seasonal online ticket service. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 20% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Melanie Hurley left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Wish 4 Ticket did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2015, only 3 years after the Den appearance.
This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.
Is Wish 4 Ticket Still in Business?
No. Wish 4 Ticket is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
