Coldplay presale

Has anyone signed up for the Coldplay presale? This is for the dates that they are playing next year in Wembley and Hull.

I think that we are supposed to get an email about it tomorrow

@Countrylife2002 I agree. There will be more dates.

piperatthegates · 26/09/2024 13:02

Two more dates in September have now been added, Sunday 7th and Monday 8th, presale scheduled to start at 14.30. I only noticed because I went back to the Coldplay homepage on Ticketmaster

Tangerinenets · 26/09/2024 13:01

Rejoined the queue for September dates and went from 13,000 to 1 in about 1/2 hour. Managed to get two seated tickets for £305 😬

Countrylife2002 · 26/09/2024 13:01

I was lucky and got one.

i am certain they will release two more dates tomorrow

The only good thing about viagogo, is even though its overpriced, you never have to queue for three hours on it,

And you never get accused of being a bot on it!

Has anyone every used viagogo? I wonder how likely it is that you'll actually get a ticket, if you buy a ticket on it.

What's the link to the November release tickets?

Birdseyetrifle · 26/09/2024 12:53

It's all over the news about what a shambles its been, thank fully I do have 2 seats with my mate just going to have to miss the first night of Victorious festival. Hopefully all you folks that didn't get lucky today will get some great seats tomorrow.

Over 500 tickets on viagogo just for the 31st August. It takes the piss and needs to be stopped. People on here that aren't touts or bots getting thrown off yet that amount of tickets are appearing on resell sites straight away.

Doesn't Glastonbury have a way f making sure this doesn't happen?

The whole system is crap.

Touts probably get up early this morning with a very structured plan of how many tickets to buy on ticketmaster, and how much profit they will then make on viagogo.

It's a big organised operation

Thanks @Abbylikeswine it's still stuck there and looks like presale tickets are all gone now! So was unlucky and probably reached the start just as they closed! So frustrating!!!

PinkyBlueMe · 26/09/2024 12:49

I got some right near back for 3/9. Initially said none available but searched again a few times and guess someone released the ones I got

Reached the front of the queue and it's just waiting at let's go! Should I just wait there or do anything?

I'd advise you to wait!

Someone I know who was also told he was a bot and kicked out,

Told me that he thinks if you refresh the page at near the purchasing point , it might make you be accused of being a bot

Been stuck at 18277 for 10 mins now.. so reluctant to close the tabs seeing as I've been sat here since 8.30 😭

Birdseyetrifle · 26/09/2024 12:42

No presale tickets left and they have closed the queue.

FoneyMoney · 26/09/2024 12:42

I’ve just had a pop up to say all presale tickets are now sold and the queue will be closed. Ag well, onto the general sale tomorrow

Vargas · 26/09/2024 12:42

4th Sept gone too. Oh well. Now the question is whether to torture myself again tomorrow?

Allfur · 26/09/2024 12:42

Sorry if this has been covered, am i correct that you can't wait for different dates on different devices?

Birdseyetrifle · 26/09/2024 12:41

Abbylikeswine · 26/09/2024 12:38

On a different device?

When I went in to login to a different device It only gave me two options , it said :

"You are trying to log into a different device, you can either go back to your original device, or you can join the back of the queue on this device"

Its not moved for a while for the 3rd September. I reckon it'll throw me off soon, getting that kind of vibe.

Abbylikeswine · 26/09/2024 12:30

Hi thanks . How did you do that?

No i just tried on my laptop for the same date that I tried before on my phone, and it put me to the back of the queue.

150,000 people ahead of me now
