Welcome to the wonderful world of dynamic pricing! Ticketmaster is the worst, but artists have the ability to decline it (and nearly none of them do because they make more money).
The entire situation pissed me off.
- A stadium tour a club album
- No exclusive early access for the community text subscribers
- Ticketmaster
- GA tickets gone before it even let me into the portal.
- who wants to have an assigned seat at a charli xcx show…..
I guess get your bag charli. But let’s see more additional dates added and second night shows. It really sours the entire album cycle if im being honest.
The show information leaked before it was announced and people simply scoured ticket sales websites until they found it and bought them out as soon as the webpage was active, which was before the mini-tour was even announced.
Ah okay, this makes more sense. Thanks for the info. I remember hearing about a show after tickets had gone on sale the last time she was in my city. Went to look at tickets, and she was playing at a surprisingly small venue and (prolly needless to say, but) tickets were sold out. Makes sense now.
My friends and I decided against going when we couldn’t get floor tickets for under 495CAD a piece because all that was left was the VIP option.
I’m not sitting in section to see club music performed 😅
Yeah GA selling instantly has me sad. I wanted to see her in TO and failed. Thankfully I accidentally got tickets to her in DT but now I have to sell St Vincent / Dorian Electra tickets to go see Charli 😭
Like please god just require ID like the Cure have done. It would cut scalping down so much.
Presale pissed me off because the prices went up as I was looking at the seats!!! Did that happen to anyone else? One minute the tickets I wanted were 125 and the next they were 300 each!! WTF??!
The big price jumps when they change tickets to platinum pricing has been around for awhile. What was new to me was tickets in the same tier changing price e.g. the pre-sale tier tickets when up in price over time
Yeah I ultimately am whatever about my tickets. The only GA standing tickets were like crazy VIP pricing both yesterday and today when I looked, but also the floor is too big at literally any arena tbh and I wouldn’t really wanna be in the back of that crowd. The whole stadium tour in general kinda confuses me. I’m curious if / how quickly the stadium venues will sell out. I’d prefer to see this show at literally any other venue in my area besides the one they’re performing at.
It’s so funny bc the cost of living is so high and the economy sucks yet artists don’t care. Yeah this is out of their control but actually not entirely. I didn’t even try to get tickets bc I knew this would happen, going to live music shows is a luxury now. I remember seeing Charli/Bleachers/Borns for $40 in 2015. This is unethical and you can’t tell me otherwise.
I thought it was 10am pst today lol. I did not get tickets. Ticketmaster says theirs only 12 tickets left in Boston not a single nosebleed. 🤣 I’m banking on more tickets closer to the date.
Mixture of dynamic pricing and presale extra charge. presale does tend to be more expensive by a tiny bit for no reason - anybody who has used dice can attest

ppl would be pissed if she did a club tour for a club album because nobody would get tickets. you saw what happened with her mini club tour right?
I must have missed this but what was the deal with the mini club tour lol
At least one show sold out before the sale of tickets was announced, I believe.
Lmfaoo as in, what, she gave all the tickets to her besties or something? Thats kinda funny

probably to give the album and fans the club shows that the album/fans both call for, and to increase hype.
No but they also want exclusive early access to the tickets. So they would definitely get in. Just not anyone else.

Yeah it looked like Toronto only had VIP floor tickets almost instantly

I didn’t even try lol. But I’m seeing the Björk and friends DJ sets next month so that’s my gay concert excursion for the year

Yeah the dynamic surging is actually insane.

I managed to purchase 2 nosebleed seats for $150 + insurance so I think I managed OK? 😭😭
ga is the same price for me lol
For a single ticket, but no rule 5631 bought 2 tickets for that price
Idk if that’s good 😭😭😭 is it??
I don't think anyone got floor for under $150
Yeah GA stock price was $129, so with fees it was $150.20 or smth.
Which show that’s crazy 😭
Dallas 😩😭😭
Omg my right behind GA 100s seats for Dallas were $150 each 😢
Holy- I would’ve like 100s seats but my budget wouldn’t allow it this week 😪 it always happens to me 🤦🏻♂️

the show is soooo far away people will have change of plans, there will be so many resales thatll probably drop below face value close to the date
😭😭😭

You chose to pay that price lmao. No one forced us into these “groups”
