Kate Bush Tickets - possible? (touts are out)

    Hi,

    I want to get a Kate Bush ticket for my wife.

    We didn't get one when they went on sale, then learned she probably wouldn't be able to go, so left it at that.

    It transpires now that she can, and I want to join the - probably million other people who want to get a ticket.

    Is there any way to get a ticket? Any suggestions?

    Short answer is almost certainly not. The tickets for the event are locked to the original buyer. They'll be checking id on the night to make sure. Even if you got someone willing to sell a ticket you might not get in. Not really worth the risk.

    What toast says is pretty spot on, chances are high you wouldn't get one, the only way you MAY be lucky is by going to the venue and possibly going in as somebody's +1 (like their extra couldn't make it but they've come anyway and have a spare), even then it's highly unlikely

    Thanks for the replies.

    Box office returns at the venue, maybe?

    I'm going to do what scudzilla mentioned- go to the venue and walk around outside- a long shot, but going to try.

    I spent yesterday on the eventim website, chasing my tail.
    Loads of tickets displaying as for sale, but when you come to book them, not available.

    Went back on tonight - there were some tickets there. "Hospitality package" tickets offered for 414 each ... STG ... AND you have to buy TWO!
