    So do I but there is a strong possibility Ed Sheeran will actually get the Croke Park gig's but it's about 6/10 likely u2 could be returning to Croke Park

    Yes, always. No olé olérs, great weather and a different experience.
    Saw U2 in Rome on the Vertigo tour and it was bananas.

    How much are the tickets?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,752 ✭✭✭johnpatrick81


    Yeah, I really wanna see them in Italy. Any footage from those concerts always looks insane. Hugely passionate fans. Problem is it will probably sell out quicker.

    Oooooh exciting!

    Rome amsterdam are both weekend gigs and great venues.

    Whats the cost of the tickets, does anyone know?. Cheers


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,764 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Delighted with the announcement but tickets maybe hard too get as its one date but I imagine the Friday or Sunday will be added ???. I'd prefer a Friday show myself

    For the fan club pre sales I think there are a number of pre-sales with long-term members (don't know what defines long term ?) Getting first dibs and then others. I joined in September 2015 so I'm not sure what pre-sale I'll get

    I renewed mine last night. Heard that if you renew it after they announce gigs you might not get a code. Probably would still get one but didn't want to take the chance. And they will announce a tour here between now and this time next year unless we are really unlucky, so I think its worth the renew.

    Have you been contacted yet with a presage code?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,289 ✭✭✭Veloce


    I renewed mine last week. Didn't get any presale code yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 233 ✭✭beecee


    Ticket limits
    Presale Limit = 4 General Onsale = 8

    8 is a bit much for a gig like this!! Touts'll be happy though.

    I checked the leinster GAA hurling and football finals and have come to the conclusion that if the gig is on in croke park then it will be Jully 21st 22nd... would that be about right

    Thanks for that, booked hotel last night and I can see hotel I booked has already increased the prices by 50% !


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,289 ✭✭✭Veloce


    Looks like the presale openings are for longer subscribers first. Similar to the way they did the 360 tour.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,441 ✭✭✭WeleaseWoderick


    Was previously a subscriber (I think for Vertigo tour) but just renewed now. Plenty of mention on the website about signing up now to gain access to the presales so can't see it being an issue to join after the dates have been announced.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,222 ✭✭✭Greg81


    Ticket prices 39.05-186€ range

    Any idea on breakdown? How much are pitch tickets?
    Red zone tickets are 315 quid. Presume thats the pit?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,855 ✭✭✭Redo91


    Will I be able to avail of the presale if I sign up now? Also will it be necessary? I'm guessing this could even be sold out before it goes on general sale but maybe I'm wrong.

    Coldplay and other major gigs are now looking for between 80 and 100 for the pitch tickets so you'd probably be looking at that for this too, and they'll have no problem selling them at that level either.

    If the coldplay gig is anything to go by then I'd say you be lucky to get tickets for this on general release

    Codes are up online - u2.com

    Just got mine.

    Don't know if I am in the Redhill group (9am Wednesday) or the Wires group (9am Thursday).

    Edit - I am in the Wires group. Damn.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,824 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    If U2 are to play croke park in summer of 2017, it will be announced by now. No doubt about that. I don't see tickets going on sale in January for gigs to take place for around July. That's a 6 month time frame. The timeframe is usually longer 7/8/9 months+ between ticket sales and gigs taking place.

    Ahem, you were saying???? :D

    Agree. I think a mod should change the title.
