Did I miss the ticket sale?


Question Posted Tuesday February 27 2007, 11:38 pm

I don't often go to concerts or shows, but a few of my friends and I for the past month have been talking about going to show on April 7th. We finally agreed to go, and I had been placed in charge of getting the tickets. A week ago, they were on sale but when I checked ticketmaster, the show did not exist and the official tour website says "Presale Closed".

I'm so new to this so I'm just wondering if there will be another chance to buy the tix.

If the show is taking place on April 7th and Ticketmaster is selling all the tickets it will be on their Web site. It may be listed under a different title (if another act opens for them or is considered the headliner).

What you need to do is go back to the Web site and then click the option that says search by venue. This will bring up the schedule of every show that will be performed at the venue including on April 7th.

A pre-sale means that tickets to the show were available for purchase on a certain date only for American Express card holders or fan club members. Once that pre-sale ends a date for the general public to begin purchasing tickets will be set up.

Another reason why you may not be seeing the concert listing on Ticketmaster was that it was cancelled outright or it is completely sold out. Personally, I think it's still on sale but the date for the public to purchase tickets hasn't been set yet.

If this doesn't help call the ticketmaster hotline number and tell them the name and date for the show as well as the venue and they'll tell you exactly what is happening as far as tickets go or if it's cancelled.

As far as the last poster goes the person meant well with their advice but you need to ignore it as this does not in any way mean you must hurry or buy tickets at the door.

If you went to the venue and tried that day of you likely wouldn't get any as all ticket purchases unless you break te law and buy from a scalper all go through ticketmaster.

When you buy from a scalper you never know if the ticket is real or not and even if it is the concert hall can decide not to let you in as the tickets were bought in bulk by a suspected scalper.

you can still get the tickets, but it`s going to be hard. you`re going to need to buy the tickets at the door before the show, so GO EARLY.
