    If anyone else has a code please do get in touch. I've messaged a few people but missed them. Standing tickets through the presale link seem to have sold out today, but there are still some seats available so good luck to anyone buying. Looks like I'll be trying my luck in the morning.

    I've noticed the same poster seeking loads of codes for the same gig and they were probably just selling the tickets.

    That's not playing fair.
    You should name and shame.

    It was a while ago. I just think if it's done on thread, then everyone can see who's getting them.

    Hope everyone got tickets. I'm not going but just went on Ticketmaster and was offered standing no problem.

    Getting offered rubbish on TM last few minutes, G or A constantly

    I've had the exact same experience

    E is available through platinum tickets but I'm certainly not paying those prices


  • Registered Users Posts: 258 ✭✭Springfields


    Just got 2 standing no problem


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    I remember there was a way to view/select whats available so your not given random crap.
    Can anybody remember what that is?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,798 ✭✭✭Ken Tucky

    Ah I didn't mean rubbish, anywhere in the 3 Arena is good, I personally prefer to be more central, enjoy the show!

    It seems to have reverted to the old Ticketmaster site today. Even putting '1' after the www is not working.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 334 ✭✭KazDub


    Got my 2 standing tickets, despite the app and browser not playing nice for a while.
    Delighted with my morning's purchase.

    Now, roll on February!

    funny, didn't see it pop up, iphone or android?

    Good catch for you though :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,050 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck


    Was it the case of a specific CODE or just a link to a ticketmaster page?

    If it's just a Ticketmaster link required could you forward or post? Thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 90 ✭✭whomenonotme


    Not seeing it on my 3 Plus app, but I got a pre-sale code using 3 Plus....



    This a way of having more people in the venue when ticket sales are poor?

    May have gone out to people that requested the presale code previously.

    Edit: sorry i assumed you got this free code, did you?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 90 ✭✭whomenonotme


    I bought tickets using the pre-sale code, got them before the general sale


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,050 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck

    Ah i see,

    so it's just a random thing who recieved this recent offer then, i guess?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 90 ✭✭whomenonotme


    the cynic in me says if the venue is half sold out, they will give away enough tickets to fill up the space. it happened at the robert plant and counting crows concerts last year, but i've no idea how many tickets were sold and how many freebies were given.

    I got tickets for both of those, gave the counting crows to friends.

    Robert plant and Van were awesome.

    Sorry to start the usual silly questions:o but don't think I've gone to a gig in the 3/O2/Point on a Sunday before. Doors seem to open relatively early. What time do gigs finish up at and what time do bands normally hit the stage at??

    no support, Massive Attack should be on stage for 8:30pm and doors open 6:30pm. from MCD website

    Was reading an interview with them in the Guardian the other day, it's going to be a big AV event, videos by Adam Curtis, documentarian par excellence.

    https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/feb/17/massive-attack-mezzanine-third-studio-album-tour-robert-del-naja-grant-marshall-adam-curtis
    Films by acclaimed documentary-maker Adam Curtis, collaboratively made with Del Naja for what seems to be Massive Attack’s most ambitious show yet, are projected on giant screens. It’s a mind melt. Curtis’s signature aesthetic reels through a potted history of the past two decades – from trash pop culture to devastating scenes of war.

    Ah that's deadly!


    Love Adam Curtis - this'll be trippy and unsettling, in a good way :)

    what have the reviews been like so far...positive?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,543 ✭✭✭Dante7


    This gig is obviously selling badly for some reason, hence the ticket giveaways. It is being advertised heavily on my social media feeds.

    There's some clips up from their Glasgow show last January.

    Standing is sold out and not many tickets were put on the three app.

    Im on a pricey contract like 60 per month, might be related?
    I did not apply for pre sale ticket ages ago as somebody mentioned.
    Tickets were first come first served, seemed to be there for an hour at least

    From MCD;

    Massive Attack perform their legendary album 'Mezzanine' in its entirety this Sunday at the @3ArenaDublin.

    Please note - there is NO support act.

    ✖︎ Doors: 6:30pm // Massive Attack: 8:30pm SHARP

    Silly question re parking, I purchased the parking along with the tickets, and while I've downloaded tickets to my phone for admission before I've never seen the parking attendants have anything other than the printed ticket slips, which they grab from you with the speed of light to get you in to the car park. I presume they have scanners for the parking rather than me printing it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 401 ✭✭Deisler


    Any more freebies going anywhere?

    I am very excited.

    My birthday today, thanks Massive Attack!
