No, there is no chance. They fortunately don't sell meet & greets.

And in all honesty, unless you are way up the front, Diamond tickets are nothing to rave about. I found that out the hard way.

With Diamond tickets you are way up front.

The only 'official' way to meet Jon is with a travel package. Included in the travel package is a "photo opportunity" with Jon.

Orlando package:
Three nights hotel accommodations at the Gaylord Palms Resort
Welcome fan club members gathering
Ticket to the BON JOVI concert on May 15
Photo opportunity with Jon Bon Jovi Specially designed tour credential
Concert transfers
One-day, two park pass to Universal Studios
Gala pre-show cocktail reception
Autographed tour program
Fully escorted by our staff
All taxes
In the event of an additional show, you will be given the opportunity to purchase ticket/hotel/additional options.

even that one can be misleading too .. a meet and greet and a photo opportunity is not exactly the same thing ...and most of the *photo with jon* are group photos anyway so the real opportunity to actually talk to Jon are not that high

Exactly. Most liklely you are shuffled in quickly, snap snap of the camera and gone. You are not exactly 'meeting' him and talking. But, to some that makes their day and is well worth it $$$$, not me though.

I think most of the time the buyer expect more than what they get but not often they will admit it because all in all the entourage will say 'hey it's your fault they never promised you this or that ' which is not false but not true neither ..

a long time ago I bought tickets for a meet and greet and access to Tico fashion show in kohln .... I was happy to be there and meet friends and all so I didn't regret really the trip to germany .... but the meet and greet never happened for me because that was supposed to happen after the show and after the show Tico wanted to be with his friends not with us .. I got a signed post card ... and baby bottles .. LOL but no meeting with tico no hand shake no photo nothing .... I didn't say anything because my friend who organized that would have felt like she made a mistake and imo it was not her fault ...But never trust what is announced as perks like meet and greet photo etc .. those can be very misleading and twisted

As others have posted, not a chance just because you are in the circle, but if you would be just happy with a quick autograph and if lucky a picture, you might try what many fans do, to go to their hotel and wait on the street for the band members to come out. Not my thing but it seems to work for others.

The Diamond tickets that they sold in Australia were reserved seats in certain areas. That's not the same as the Diamond Circle that they're selling for General Admission shows.

As everyone has said, being in the Diamond Circle has nothing to do with meeting anyone in the band.
