Furious-Red

Music Scene Ireland

BIG NEWS: Beyoncé shall be playing Croke Park this Summer! Announcement due next week (at the earliest). Tag a friend who needs to know.

Mushy

Odd timing, be bit late for valentines!

Also, they said muse news was last summer, they lied.

Would Beyonce be an MCD act?

I heard an interview on the radio 18 months ago that MCD had an act booked for Croke Park for 2016.

Would this be it?

One night with Beyonce and two with Bruce?

Different audiences so won't matter.

Beyonce is an easy sell out for MCD (is she even usually with MCD? Oxegen is the only MCD gig that springs to mind that booked her!)

Serious matter though when it comes to accommodation =/

Hotel prices are already at a premium as Stone Roses at Marley and John Grant at Iveagh. I'm either busing or blagging a relative for a bed for the night.

True but I think the chances are quite high considering she just dropped a new single out of the blue last night and is performing it on the super bowl tonight. Her last tour was announced the morning after her last super bowl performance

Music scene is just going off the rumours from a fansite, BUT the tour is being announced tomorrow.

Music Scene Ireland were merely reporting what they heard elsewhere. They aren't the actual source of the information. The source is Twitter account https://twitter.com/TheBeyHiveTeam who have a history of accurately reporting Beyonce news before any official announcements.

Saturday July 9th is now confirmed. Tickets on sale Monday February 14th.

Same but i read elsewhere that you wont actually get one til the 9th. I don't know how true that is though. Seems more like a technical issue

rsl1976

Yeah i'm still waiting for my email too. Took me ages to manage to sign up, website kept crashing

Dontfadeaway

Email will probably be a few hours before it goes on sale.

It is. It's not out of the ordinary, though. In fact, it's on the lower-end of the scale when it comes to A-list popstars lately. Ticket prices have been creeping up to crazy heights the past few years. The cheapest pitch-standing ticket for Madonna's latest concert was near €200. Disgraceful. And I know it's not comparing like with like but Bruce's standing tickets are also €104 (incl. booking fee.)

Yep. I was considering going to this but not anymore.

I did the same - guessed the code as being formation and got some great seats. Im a bit nervous though since everyone's going mad on Twitter about the mess up... I hope they don't turn around and go back on my tickets since they never actually sent me a code!
The ticketmaster website made it look as though you needed individual unique codes!

Dontfadeaway

I got Gold Circle, but I wanted something else and I got them there now, so I will have to get rid of the Gold, I hope it sells out or I'm screwed.

You will have no problem selling!

Got tickets too. The code was floating around twitter from 10.
Had signed up but didn't get any email either.
€104 standing is expensive, but hopefully will be worth it!
They're still on sale now.

bigpink

Saw her last time in 02 dublin but at €104 not a chance

You should see the prices for her outdoor gigs in the US ,they are insane.
350 dollars for a decent seat .:eek:

Thanks Guys.....got 4 tickets, thatll keep the OH happy for valentines day

Was thinking of getting the standing tickets but I'd prefer Gold Circle standing for a tenner extra so I will try The MCD presale on Saturday or the General Sale on Monday. Not that I can afford this!!

Its kind of strange that the Golden Circle tickets are only 10 euro more expensive than the normal standing considering how much better a view you are guaranteed.

Yeah pay the extra. She has a big catwalk too, so even at the back of Gold you will have a decent view.

Did you get print out tickets or physical tickets that'll be posted to you? Keep me in mind first in the queue if I don't get gold circle ones on Saturday for one of your ones!
