Bruce Springsteen - RDS

Pip510

Hi, hoping to get Springsteen tickets for his concert next year in RDS. I have never been to the RDS and was hoping someone could guide me to the best tickets I could get. I am a bit claustrophobic so i was wondering would the pitch area be better as I could get in & out easy enough if I felt anxious in the crowd or would the seated area be better.

Thanks you for help on this.

Not gonna lie, parts of it will be heaving.

Seating will obviously be a set amount of people.

Back of the pitch is usually not that busy, but considerable amount of chatter due to the bars.

If you can, get there early enough to get a pit pass, you can hover at the back of the pit where there's plenty of space, then manoeuvre towards the exit during the encore, and avoid the crowd on the way out. (There's an exit right by the pit)

Thanks for that hynesie08 that sounds like a good plan. How early would you want to be there to get a pit pass

On the Friday I'd say before 3, on the Sunday who knows, Springsteen fans are mental.

As soon as the gates open. I'd be more worried about actually getting a ticket though, both nights will likely be sold out within seconds.

What price do tickets start at?

Anyone know the capacity of the RDS for standing gigs?

Even given the high TX prices, amazed they didn't sell out and

were still selling tickets for nights one and two plus the extra one a

few minutes ago.

Think it’s 30-35000

Pity it's not at another venue, the sound at the rds is a bit iffy esp if there's a cross- wind

had heard lots of bad things about the RDS but when saw Paul S there on his farewell tour it was fine.

surely can’t be worse than the sound at Croker when BS played there in 2016.

Been offered hard copy tickets for this. Anyone know if the tickets have been posted yet?

Certainly not mine. I'd be surprised if they posted them until MUCH closer to the event.

My Garth brooks ones came within a week, so it's possible.

Was having a peak at the European gigs, interesting layout for the all standing, Monza gig in Italy.
