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

@livealittlemore is the experience at Wembley tickets a separate bit? I'm on axs queue

youheard · 27/09/2024 11:00

LOL, I queued for 1hr 43min on AXS to find nothing when I arrived

I did get tix yesterday in the presale but owing to glitches not the tickets I wanted, so I may well be selling on Twickets down the line as I'm sure will a lot of people. Plenty of hope for y'all but the system is maddening

livealittlemore · 27/09/2024 10:57

Got into the buying page at Ticketmaster for 8th Sept after queuing since 8.30! but nothing was available not even the enhanced experience ones- I didn't check the £800 + one.
But went on to AXS after that and clicked on the experiences by Wembley tickets...straight into the buying page and was able to get 2 tickets with good seats at £250pp. So anyone struggling to find tickets and willing to pay for enhances experience tickets can check there!

I logged in on my laptop this morning. I had to go out and do something.

I have the laptop in the car on the seat next to me!

The dedication! :)

I kept checking for standing on 3rd September - nothing, nothing, nothing then 3 tickets available. Checked out quickly with Paypal before it crashed. So if you're ok with standing don't close the window keep trying.

At this point is becomes cheaper to buy from one of the resale sites - outrageous. General sale began at 9am! Something not right here.

Thewordwomble · 27/09/2024 10:49

This is the only ticket left on Sunday 7th September if it helps anyone queueing. Literally nothing else

I got in...but was then kicked out as browser 'detected abnormal activity' What???!
Maybe because it let me in without the authentication code? Furious.

@Abbylikeswine 15000th. SO SLOW.

samsswampy · 27/09/2024 10:39

I can’t even get in a queue! I keep getting sent verification codes that are not valid, I’ve had 31 so far

piperatthegates · 27/09/2024 10:37

I got in for 3rd September but only the expensive tickets left (I can't justify paying over £750 for three concert tickets)

hby9628 · 27/09/2024 10:37

I've only gone down 3000 in 90 mins....not holding out much hope getting these for my brother 😢

@TokyoSushi I have the same for my daughter and hopefully her pal will spring for the £250 ticket… keep an eye on them would you?! (What hospitality is involved? I panicked and obv didn’t check what I was buying for the inflated price)

Queue is so slow! Get a move on people.

I am hoping it will speed up

Congrats @TokyoSushi
Where are the £250 seats? To be fair people were paying over £300 for standing for oasis at Heaton park!

TokyoSushi · 27/09/2024 10:26

I'm back from my nails and.... WE'RE BLOODY GOIING!!!!!!!!!

I came back to a very stressed DH who was just pressing 'buy' on the very expensive tickets for 31/8 - I think they're the £250 ones, but the DC will love it, especially DD who is 12, I have no clue about queue numbers etc 😬😬😬

Good luck to everybody still queueing

Just to pass the time. I was just thinking of something funny.

Did anyone see where a woman went up a member of Coldplay in a bar in Dublin, and asked him did he go to the Coldplay concert?

Chris martin spoke about it at their next concert. He said "as you can see , he still isn't famous after 27 years!"

I was at that gig, hilarious. The woman was later on Irish radio talking about her mortification, she even said her nieces had shown her all the band members pictures before she went to the pub so she would know what they looked like and she still got it wrong 😂 It was an after party for the gig think she got invited due to charity work she does.

Dancingqueen90 · 27/09/2024 10:22

I got in for 7th sept (I started at 12,000 at 9am) and only the wembley enhanced and expensive tickets left. Couldn't even get 1 standing or seated ticket at the regular price. This was at 10am. I chose not to pay £250+ per ticket.

Good luck to those trying X hope you are successful x

I said to myself, after going through it yesterday,
That I won't sit and stare at the screen today. That I will go away and do other jobs.

But I can't tear myself away from the screen!
