    well, as long as people keep paying this crazy money, this thing will go on forever.

    For me it's a matter of principle: I don't pay more than face value for a ticket - and I don't mind face value being a lot of money, if I want to see a band, I will pay.
    But not this thing, no matter how much I want to see the band.

    The funny/sad thing is that I reckon the Block D tickets are the most expensive as they're central....and those poor buggers will be sooooo disappointed.

    section E the tickets are in.

    I considered seat wave for a moment when I ended up with seated extras.... Could have paid a bill or two nicely but in the end my conscience kicked in and I sold them to a friend of a friend for face value.... Need to stop reading about the prices people are getting.

    I received my tickets in the post but cant make the gig now so selling them too a friend. Will there be an issue with entry since my name is on the tickets? I know this issue has been discussed but i presumed it was a ticketless event so i was surprised to receive them in post

    If they're seated, you can transfer them with no worries at all. Ticketless is for standing only.

    Hi Folks,
    I purchased 2 standing Tickets for my Son and myself for the opening night - Monday night. We are both huge fans ( I have not missed a concert since 1985 )
    Unfortunately I did not know about the over 14 years of age rule in the standing area - :mad::mad:
    Any advice on how to go about swapping these two standing tickets for seated tickets, so that my son will be given entry.
    We can only go on the Monday night.
    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Tom.

    Completely different concert, brought my two smaller sisters (both definitely under 14) to see Beyonce once and we were right at the barrier. Doubt there would really be an issue, I'd just pop the ticket crowd a tweet or something.

    By the way, the Beyonce gig was as rough as fork so it can't be about a different audience. Puffa jacket wearing lunatics all acting the absolute dope. Each puffa jacket taking up the space of 3 normal sized humans. Never again. Ever.

    I'd imagine there would be a savage amount of people who will swap with you
    If it's possible to scan someone in with your card, they could pass you their seats. . . Just roll on down and ask around

    Hi there,

    Of you are looking for seats, I'd advise you to contact Ticketmaster / 3arena and explain your situation, I'm sure they will have seats set aside for such instances.

    They should be able to accommodate you without any hassle!

    Got the tickets and it stats limited view

    Mine says limited view of the screen, I can live with that, the stage is what I am after, and from my experience there are no bad seats in the point


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭innuendo141


    I'd imagine my tickets state the same.

    I paid 30 odd euro, I'd have sat in the toilet of the 3 arena for that.

    I rang Ticketmaster to see and all I got do you want a refund, worth a try to see what they would say.

    Mine say Limited screen view. No problem with that once I can see most of the main stage and the smaller one then I'm happy out.

    Hey, ive got standing tickets. Confirmed on my ticketmaster but I don't have tickets to print off yet??

    Anyone know when the tickets are updated and added to our accounts to print off.

    I guess you were not reading the information before you bought tickets.

    For standing tickets you have to bring the card you used to purchase them and a valid ID you will get no PDF or print out. So your credit card is your ticket

    Standing tickets are paperless. You have to have valid photo ID and your card that you purchased the tickets with and they will swipe it before you enter.

    Got an update today confirming the ticket, but saying it doesn't grant entry, to bring along your ticket!

    Going to a serious queue as they check id and credit cards. Also people may lose their cards in the meantime!

    There'll be mayhem.

    Thanks for the clarification
