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

Wow well done. I think it's pot luck where you go in the queue from the waiting room. Hope your sister enjoys the concert

He didn’t log into the site until after 9am so did really well

Quacking4it · 27/09/2024 09:50

Would you do standing? Or it doesn't suit you?

I for some reason thought general sale was at 10am, I'm in the queue with 227025 ahead of me 😬

Abbylikeswine · 27/09/2024 09:54

No minute goes as slowly as a ticketmaster minute

ICantThinkOfOne13 · 27/09/2024 09:55

No standing, no seating for 27th
Waste of time!

Whilst I’m pleased for your son, this shows how much of a joke Tickermaster are. I was refreshing the page every few minutes until 8:30 when I was invited to join the waiting room. I was in at 8:35 and was at 59000 when the queue opened at 9:00.
I’m so disappointed. My husband and I saw them back in 2013, and we’d love to take our son now as he adores them. Meanwhile the touts and scammers are all over it. Fuming and gutted in equal measure.

MustBeDueSomeBetterFeet · 27/09/2024 09:55

Thanks @ICantThinkOfOne13 - gah!!!

Trampoline · 27/09/2024 09:56

No! So sorry.
I'm 7k in queue for 27th, why don't they close the queue if tx are all gone?

CherryValley5 · 27/09/2024 09:56

No tickets for us unfortunately (Wembley Sept 4th). Only standing or very pricey enhanced available - DD has a back condition so hours of standing would be miserable, not worth it..! 😩

I can't even add any of the expensive ones (not that I could afford it)
I'm secretly hoping someone has some in a basket to release.. but I will be giving up soon

Shocking! None of it makes sense. I'll let you know what happens if and when I get there!

They do say that your queue position is totally random though, and it definitely is.

I joined the waiting room earlier yesterday, than I did today,

And my queue number was higher yesterday

35k ahead of me for 31st August

Still 43463 - so tedious!

Abbylikeswine · 27/09/2024 10:07

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!

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

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.
