    Thursday 19th December – The O2, Dublin Tickets €39.50 (Seated) / €49.50 (Standing)

    I've never seen Tiesto play, I have to agree I'm sick of seeing Calvin Harris, He seems to be constantly gigging, not idea how he manages to make new tunes while always on the road, I'm starting to think there might be a ghost in the mix there if you know what I mean..

    Either way this looks like a good event, plus I've never seen Tiesto play.. :)

    When are they on sale? I'd imagine this would sell fast?

    Pete Tong, GTA, and Danny Avila have all been confirmed as the support acts for the supermassive new Calvin Harris and Tiesto dual headline EDM tour, set for this December.

    Dubbed the 'Greater Than' tour, it sees the pair of dance music titans stopping in Belfast, Dublin, London, Manchester and Glasgow - and now, with the announcement of three of electronic dance music’s biggest names as warm-up acts, the tour has just become even bigger.

    Tickets for the shows are on sale at 9am on Friday August 23, and are expected to sell like hot cakes - so make sure you get yours quick. And, as mentioned, with the unveiling of three stupidly big support DJs and artists, excitement has reached peak levels.

    If the tour sounds too good to miss (which it really should!), you can grab your tickets using the dates and links provided below.

    Greater Than Tour Lineup:

    Calvin Harris
    Tiesto
    Pete Tong
    GTA
    Danny Avila

    Any idea on the price range?

    €50-€60 without booking fee?

    Oh wow, That's awesome I'd love to see GTA live, I've been following those guys since back when they were posting on the Laidback Luke forums and fine tuning their production skills!

    Thursday 19th December – The O2, Dublin Tickets €39.50 (Seated) / €49.50 (Standing)

    Info taken from the MCD Facebook, It's most likely +booking fee..

    "To buy priority tickets for the Calvin Harris and Tiesto at The O2, you'll need a unique password; text CALVIN to 51020 to get it. "

    No standing tickets remaining though =/

    Sure not all the standing tickets would be in the O2 sale? Surely only a portion of tickets for a concert go to presale and the rest are kept for general release?

    I'm getting the feeling that Tiësto is playing before Calvin? Please somebody tell me otherwise. :/

    Jeez I hope not!
    What gives you this idea?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 353 ✭✭JamieK


    The order in which they are listed...plus they use some buzz word describing Calvin and not to describe Tiësto...I can't quote on this phone you see :p Hope I'm wrong though :)

    Calvin Harris is great but Tiesto is a proper superstar DJ.Cant see him being on first

    And he is a far superior dj


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 353 ✭✭JamieK


    True...after seeing Calvin 7 times now and I'd gladly trade all of those concerts to see Tiësto again. Puts on an amazing show even though this gig is more than likely pushing his newer electro-house sets than his older trance sets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,929 ✭✭✭raven136


    he often throws in 15 minutes of his older and harder stuff so hopefully we get that at least.

    Pete Tong also is a bit more old school so I really hope this is not full of kids :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43 2K11


    Hoping to get tickets for this tomorrow, one of my lifetime ambitions was to see Tiesto live and to see him in Ireland is a once in a lifetime chance :D

    Surely Calvin Harris won't be the headline act, he's good but Tiesto is another level alltogether


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 Carrigstown Traders Association


    Apparently the presale sold out in 4 minutes! Would people say the standing tickets will sell out tomorrow morning? I think the capacity of the o2 around 15,000 when there's mix of seating and standing.

    I'de say the standing tickets will sell out pretty fast as most people wont want to be in the seated area.

    This one to sell out today?

    Am humming and hawing over getting tickets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,610 ✭✭✭shocksy


    This will deffo sell out, at my local ticketmaster there was about 50 people queuing outside the place at 1am this morning, had their sleeping bags and all, and if facebook is anything is to go by this is the case at alot of ticketmaster agents. Never thought i would see the day queuing for Tiesto overnight, all little kids, i blame MCD for making it an over 16's event anyway. That put me off straight away, as you will see anything from 12 to 16 year olds at it now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 101 ✭✭empty21


    This is my question will it be suitable for teenagers? Its starts at 6:30 so is it over at 10 or is it on until 2 am?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,071 ✭✭✭MarkY91


    30 seconds after 10pm...cant get a ticket online :\???

    Clicked in straight away at 10, was logged in at 9.55 ready to go and was clock watching waiting impatiently, and nothing, not a single thing!

    All O2 gigs must finish by 11pm at the latest. This will be no different.

    Usually, all gigs at the O2 are finished by 10.45pm and they clear the venue very quickly!

    Sold in under 2 minutes by the looks of it!!

    Well a portion would have gone in the pre sale. Ticketmater outlets would have snapped up another chunk at 10am and the remainder for the online buyers!

    It only holds 14,500 all in so big acts find it a relatively easy sell.

    In fairness, this line up could have had a Marlay Park slot this summer and sold 23,000 easily so I'm not surprised.

    A few hundred tickets will have been held back no doubt by TM for sponsors etc etc so these may become available in early December!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭JJ


    Once again, let's remember this simple formula:

    Demand > Supply


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 160 ✭✭R019912


    I had two seated tickets, filled in all my details, pressed submit order and the form decided to have some sort of error. Devastated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,517 ✭✭✭Sunny Dayz


    I see tickets already up for sale on ebay, looking for over €100 a piece.
