Depends on the concert and the venue. But Heineken would most likely have a marketing deal with the venues or events you attended.

Hi, does anyone know how strict the INEC Killarney are with the over 18's policy? Would ID be needed, or is it okay with a parent/guardian? Thanks

Hello there. Whelans do a singer/songwriter night upstairs every Monday. If you're looking to get on the bill or possibly even discuss doing your own show there just send a mail to songcycle@whelanslive.com.

Cheers!

It depend on what gig it is?? If it is over18 they will ask for ID but if you are 16 going in with a parent is usually ok.

Anyone able to recommend parking near The Academy? Street parking is fine if there's something near. It'll be from 7-10ish on a Saturday.

Anyone ever had a restricted view ticket on the balcony in Vicar St? How restricted is the view? Thinking of going to a stand up there and these are the only tickets left... just wanna know if they'll be awful before I go and book them!

I imagine these are the seats on the blacony either side of the stage. If you are right againt the wall you will see nothing on your side, but as long as the comics stay front and centre you will be fine.

Is it only a recent change that your name is printed on all concert tickets.

I bought my ticket for Katy Perry yesterday and when the woman at the counter asked me for my name so she could put it on my ticket.

It was the first time this ever happened when I bought my RHCP ticket but now it seems to happen everytime I buy a ticket.

Yes its good there and depending on the gig/concert its nice to be behind hte stage for a change. get a different perspective on things.

One trick i'll tell you if you're stuck for money one week is that if you want to catch say for example a symphony from the National Symphony Orchestera you can get there at half time (approx 9pm) and just walk straight into reserved seating. They only chech the tickets at the start (8pm).

Give it a go

Does anyone know if Ticketmaster will swap standing tickets for seating? I have two standing for tonight, but need three sitting instead.

Thanks

Thanks for the tip. I gig around at the open mics, but was looking to a real 2 hour gig. I ended up doing it in the Twisted Pepper, great venue. Jane

Hoping to get a ticket for the concert (they were still available on ticketmaster a while ago!). I will be heading to it on my own, but cant make up my mind on seated or standing - I havnt been to a concert in Croke Park before.

Also, will be staying at hotel on Stephen Street Lower, I presume from Westmoreland St to hotel will be a safe enough walk for a woman on her own after the concert (sorry if thats a stupid question ) ?

Thanks

Trying to get standing tickets for a couple of gigs that are coming up and am wondering how do I get them.
I see on the map of the place there is 'the circle', 'the upper circle' and standing. In the ticket options on the side there is also 'the stalls' and restricted view options.

Where are the Standing Tickets and how does one go about getting some?


Thank you please

Grid.

Click on the left hand menu where it says 'Best Available' and you will see options, if you want Ground Floor Standing hit that and enter the amount of tickets you want;)

Grid.

Meant to say, if the gig is all seated...you'll only have the option of Stalls (seats on the ground floor), Circle is the next tier of seating and Upper Circle is top tier. The restricted views in the Stall section usually have a red triangle of seats on the map that obstruct your view because of the pillars in the venue, these are usually cheaper seats.

Thank you. In the 'best available' option there is no standing tickets there. Maybe the gigs (Ocean Colour Scene and Australian Pink Floyd) are all seated
