I'm beyond excited... I've been planning and waiting for him to come back to London... I've never seen him before..
Last time he played London was when my late DP was terminally ill so I couldn't go... My friends husband is taking me. Its been an in joke for years that as soon as Bruce's dates are announced then I'm borrowing him for the evening!!
I really enjoyed him at Glastonbury when I saw it the next day.. He is so bloody gorgeous.. One of those men who improves with age. 💙 💙 💙

I'll get mine resale nearer the time, there'll be loads.
I did buy another Lewis Capaldi ticket though, loved him so much in Lytham I thought I'd see him in Scarborough too.

I can't get any Birmingham tickets...am refreshing, refreshing, refreshing!!

Got Hyde Park tickets for DH and I.

Can't wait!! It'll be my 6th and hopefully 7th Bruce concert, he and the band are AMAZING!!!

Has anyone managed to book Villa Park tickets today?

I got 6 for Edinburgh. I’m taking my dad (who took me to my first Bruce concert in 1988), my hubby (who I introduced to the joys of Bruce) and my teen DDs who have heard him since the day they were born. I’m so excited! I got the tickets on the presale this morning but I’m on holiday so was stressing about wifi and time differences!

LOVING the multi-generation Bruce fans!

Dad introduced me, I introduced DH and DS was born to Bruce singing!

@angeltattoo i have got them first thing this morning 😁😁😁 so excited.

Well done!!! Amazing!!

It took me about 1.5 hrs to get tickets yesterday, but no luck today after 5 hours still!

I bought 6 general admission standing for Birmingham this morning. Joined the Ticketmaster queue at 8.50am and was all checked out with my tickets at 9.03am. My hands were shaking, the adrenaline was flowing, but I am absolutely thrilled that I have them. They were £109 each, plus EXTORTIONATE fees.
DH and I have only seen Bruce once, in Coventry in 2013. He was simply phenomenal. We are taking our DD16 with us next year too. We've told her that she MUST see him, even if it just once in her life. Luckily, she loves Bruce too ❤

UrsulaPandress · 21/07/2022 14:49

I just don’t like big open air concerts.

Saw him at the NEC in 1981. Mind blowing

Saw him at the Etihad in 2016 and meh. Daylight. Light drizzle. Shit acoustics. Tiny dot in the distance (and we weren’t that far away).

Such a shame.

drum123 · 21/07/2022 15:36

After both my cards were refused twice, my friend, who was on the phone with me trying at the same time, managed to get 3 tickets (which is what we wanted)
I am over the moon, been wanting to see the boss for years but never been able to before. Such a lovely thing to look forward to.

I'm going to Edinburgh. I've been patiently waiting too. Enjoy xxxx

Couldn't get general admission even though was in waiting queue from 8.45...by 9.04 none left...went on mid morning just to see and got golden circle ...selling 2 kidneys on eBay, not buying food until next July and renting out every 4x4m space in my house 😂

CornishTiger · 21/07/2022 18:00

Off to see the boss at Villa park. Got seated on axs.com. Ticketmaster only offered me standing. This was about 910.

Awhispersway · 25/07/2022 22:35

I wonder if anymore will be released?

OneHundredOtters · 13/12/2022 11:01

Just popped back to say that I bought my tickets through Festicket who have gone into administration so the tickets have been cancelled.

More info here: https://www.bst-hydepark.com/festicketcustomers/?utmmedium=email&&hsmi=65958550&hsenc=p2ANqtz--7eDuj45Hjx-S0euHrDNw8Qe5yiw1lBB8pszkAFGg-rdPvoSLVdSSDna3o7vP5nR3cILnIk03ZOf-oL9cO2C4S6b4u5w&utmcontent=65958550&utmmsource=hsemail

They sent an email in November but it came from another company who have bought them out so I thought it was spam and didn't notice.

We will be given another chance to buy tickets after Christmas but you need to get a refund from your bank.

Slightly annoying as it was a Christmas present for DH. Just glad I noticed before I went to print it off on Christmas Eve!

@Awhispersway @CornishTiger @OneHundredOtters

sorry for jumping on an old thread, but I wondered if you had been able to buy new tickets ? I recieved the email in November about Festicket and that we can buy new tickets from Lyte but nothing else. Messages to Lyte go unanswered and the link on the BST website for
contact info also appears to also be broken.

Birchtrees · 24/04/2023 14:17

I wanted to go last year but tickets were about £30p each minimum. How did anyone get tickets for around £100? I looked the day they went on sale.

OneHundredOtters · 24/04/2023 15:11

@glasslightly I got an email form lyte [email protected] on the 5th January with a personalised purchase link. I was then able to go online and buy the tickets.

The deadline for repayment is Friday 28th April so I really hope you are able to sort it.

Have you checked spam folders etc?

OneHundredOtters · 24/04/2023 15:12

@birchtrees I got them via the American Express pre-sale

glasslightly · 24/04/2023 15:21

thanks so much @OneHundredOtters.

The original email didn’t go to spam - which unfortunately clears itself out after a month 🤦🏼‍♀️.

Am in week four of trying to find anything / anyone to talk to - no one seems to respond to Lyte’s ‘help’ page….

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 17/06/2023 22:16

@ShelbyNotes did you have a good time last night? DH wasn't keen but I loved it. It could be the last tour so I'm so glad we were there. Thanks for your advice when I was booking the hospitality tickets.

Happy to have helped! We absolutely loved it, I’m so glad we’ve seen him live it was 3 hours of pure joy! I quite liked the hospitality extras making everything that little bit more of a treat especially and like you say this is most probably the last tour or at least the last that will come here.

Awhispersway · 17/06/2023 22:46

That would be a shame. Im hoping he has one more Glastonbury in him.

Going by last night he would definitely have it in him to do the festivals he was honestly outstanding

I just think the full tour and gruelling schedule that comes with it makes me feel like it maybe the last individual full tour. I’d love it if he did a Glastonbury it’s a bucket list item for us!
