    Im curious. Did any of you try yesterday? the UFC Newsletter code has been plastered all over both threads for days. UFC themselves also put it up on Facebook. Not to mention im sure half of you know someone on O2 or something... Funny seeing some people are saying there are a load bandwagoners but if you were a true UFC fan then why didnt you try get some yesterday?

    Either way I Feel sorry for people as i know the prices are ridiculously high and times are tough for people.

    I was buying for someone as he hasn't a credit card an works lates. I only seen the newsletter pre sale when he asked me last night to get them.

    Im telling him the exact same myself

    Because by 10:02 yesterday, there were no bloody tickets to be got. I'm sure every one of us tried yesterday, myself included, but there weren't two tickets together.

    We just split the cost of the fight club between the 6 of us. Added €10 per ticket. Was worth it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 335 ✭✭OriginV


    Better view of the fights on TV I guess..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭thelibertyboy


    I went on to see how fast the ufc would sell out I got a 125 ticket at 10:01 and cancelled it then tried ten seconds later tickets gone mental im happy I got my tickets already.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭Howshocowpownw


    Lads how much do you reckon I'd get for the 50 and 100 euro tickets ?

    Tried to get 2 more for my two buddies this morning. No joy.

    If anyone has tickets to sell theyre willing to pay above for them. 500 for a pair if they're good. Both avid MMA fans.

    What a disaster!

    PM me

    ULTIMATE FAN VVIP EXPERIENCE and SUPERFAN VIP EXPERIENC still available on ticketmaster €1200 /€1600 for 2 tickets


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 650 ✭✭✭csallmighty


    No luck today must have sold out in a flash.

    My cousin had got two €125 tickets yesterday but had to let them go because he didn't have enough money in his account :mad::mad::mad:

    Its times like these that I don't feel bad about steaming events :P

    I would say that's extremely unlikely given the rate at which tickets sold, the amount of shows they are now running, and the fact they've 3 Irish fighters. Their whole new business model is built around making local stars.


    I can't understand the people complaining about ticket prices. Clearly the price is fair because they've sold all the tickets. If anything, I was surprised on the low end. Tickets for the Germany card last week started at €100, whereas I believe there were tickets for this for €50. I'd budgeted to spend a minimum €300 on a pair, so for €250 I feel like I've got a deal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭thelibertyboy


    yeah and i had planned on buying it to but i forgot my verified by visa password :P

    Exactly, how often have the UFC been here. This is the 2nd time, everyone knows or knew what the prices were going to be and that they were going to be in high demand. At the end of the day its simple economics and the UFC is a business like any other. You have to factor in the the o2 Dublin is smaller than most other venues they use and the cost of getting everything here. That is the reason tickets we pricey.
