Default Ticket Prices

Hi

I was just wondering what the ticket prices are for fan club and non fan club members.

Also for fan club members, how does the seating work? Do you get the best seats in the house (say first 1-10 rows)? Is it senority based? or is it first in best dressed?

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Aloha !

I don't know where you're from, but there's no point in joining the fanclub at all when you live in America. The fanclub does not have the best seats and they're a lot more expensive. In Europe the only benefit is that you get an early entrance, but with all shows at the O2 Arena being seats only, you've got your reserved spot anyway so why bother with entering early?

The fanclub charges 50 dollars for a membership and then added 25 dollars per ticket extra for regular GA tickets in Paris. What would've cost me about 210 dollars with ticketnet.fr (French ticketmaster) cost me 270 + 50 = 320 dollars when joining the fanclub. I'm doing more shows and am going to New Jersey as well, but once again I got my better tickets by Ticketmaster, and not by the fanclub.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Thanks Sebastiaan

So what your saying is that being in the fan club doesn't really give you priority seating or the best seats in the house (e.g. first few rows).

I just looked at the ticketmaster site and it looks like money is the thing that buys the best tickets

Itīs a VIP pit between the stage and the first 10 rows (somethin smaller than the Golden Cirlce in the LH tour)
I guess this vip tickets are on sale just in fan club site.

Also you have some fan club pre sale.
But if you buy in Ticketmaster, you can found good seats as well.

pjgirl, I don't know if you're in the U.S. or not. I am, and I belong to the fan club. Most of my tickets for the upcoming tour came from the fan club. Yes, I did pay a surcharge for them, but they are better than what I could have gotten on Ticketmaster at the time that tickets went on sale. For a few shows, I did better on TM. Had I waited until late ticket drops, I might have done better for some additional shows through TM, but there are no guarantees.

One additional point, if you're asking about the fan club because you're interested in tickets for the U.S. shows on the first leg, you're probably too late. There are still tickets for some shows available, but most shows are sold out. The initial ticket sales were held back in November.

Let me know if you have any other questions . . . if you're in the U.S. I don't know anything about the European system, but there are a lot of other people on this site that could help you with info about those.

As Seb Said if you from US you can score better tkts from Ticketmaster.
But Ticketmaster gets better seats as the shows come closer as most VIP tkts that are not sold are sold as regular tkts on TM. Also any tkts from fan club that are not sold are sold back to TM
hope that helps

Default seats

i find if you're right at your computer, and have ticket master up on the screen and credit card in hand pick you seat or area before or hit floor, reserved ect, you have a really good chance of getting tickets, i did it with sold out Cher concert and got floor seats right behind reserved.

And none of my tickets are from the fanclub and I am England. You can buy any price ticket for the o2 shows not a problem.
Oh and I am in the fanclub

I am a FC member and was able to score Pit only tix. Also as an FYI TM is releasing Pit only tix for several locations in US where noone has purchased the VIP Packages. Row 2, center isle was popping up for Fargo a day or 2 ago. Other cities had the same. Not Anaheim or Vegas though. Pretty much every February show though.
