Going to try for one of the Milan shows tomorrow. Anybody ever seen them in Italy before? What are the chances of getting 4 tickets in general sale? Will they likely add more dates?

I see Ticketmaster Italia and TicketOne are both selling them. Any idea where I can find a list of authorized sellers for this tour? Want to make sure I’m using the right website.

go to the tours page on U2 website and there is a link there for the tickets

Live Nation presale about to start for London and Manchester shows. Will throw my hat in to see if anything turns up for me.

Raft after raft of presales ,Experience,Innocence,Retail,O2,Livenation ,all starting at the ludicrous time of 9am and hardly any standing tickets in them.
Can anyone explain to me why an online only presale has to start at 9am ??

1st of all what is a livenation presale?

Livenation Presale is a Ticketmaster presale ,it was this morning at 9 I believe.

9am is a terrible time.
Its the start of the work ,school and college day .
People have to take time out of their schedule ,reorganise things .
The only people who are up at that time are up for something ,work,school,college etc.
Its literally the worst time you can pick.

^^ very good point! More of an industry wide issue though.

Yes ,its obviously a legacy issue dating back to when most of the tickets were sold in retail outlets so people queued up and bought when the shops opened at 9am.
I see no reason why it should be used for an online presale though .

Disagree. It's a 24 hour work we live in now. People start work at all hours of the day and believe it or not, some people do actually get out of bed before 9am without any plans.....

Yeah I was at this gig. Bought my ticket outside on the day. That was 05 though so different times.

When Bono took on Pavarotti's bit in Miss Sarajevo the place went totally apesh1t. Never heard a louder audience. One of the best moments of any gig I've ever seen.

Anyone thinking of heading to Manchester etc, don't bother. Do Italy/Spain etc. Only an extra hour on the plane. They're playing Milan on a Friday night and people are going to Manchester instead?!

Only thing I'm getting from those clips is the lack of mobile phones...

But there isn't any flight from Shannon to Milan. Or Madrid either. We all don't live near Dublin.

but1er · 26-01-2018 9:51am

9 mins to go. Nervous

but1er · 26-01-2018 10:03am

Not a hope for madrid

ITgirl73 · 26-01-2018 10:13am

Twitter saying hardly anyone got GA. Instant sellout with maybe only the excessively priced seats available

Nunu · 26-01-2018 10:23am

Extra date added Amsterdam but not on sale till next Friday?!

The truth is that hardly any tickets were left for sale today ,the vast majority were sold in presales .
GA and best seats are being held back for now.

but1er · 26-01-2018 10:29am

Got in a que at 8.50 for it and nothing!

Drive to Cork or Dublin and get the plane from there then.

Anything but Manchester when these other great cities are at your disposal. Will work out cheaper too. England is expensive.

Nunu · 26-01-2018 10:34am

I was in queue from 8:15. Got 3/4 around then decided to change to make me wait longer. Still in the queue &#55357;&#56834;

This 2nd date business on sale week later is disgraceful. Probably another pre sale so more sign ups and more money.

RolandGoose · 26-01-2018 10:36am

Tried to get tickets for Amsterdam, was told the queue was between 30 and 60 minutes. When the time fully counted down the site reset went back into Dutch and said my queue time was between 30 and 60 minutes again!

At that very point I said... No thanks!
Always a circus with the general on sale!
Thank flip for my u2. Com subscription!

Chivito550 · 26-01-2018 10:37am

No joy for Milan. Only 225 euro tickets available. What are the odds of a 3rd and 4th gig for there?

No presales for extra dates I think. That’s how I got night 2 of Twickenham so easily.

Wooderson · 26-01-2018 10:45am

Is the demand for this tour higher than '15? Seems so. Peeps cheesed they missed out?

innuendo141 · 26-01-2018 10:51am

50 minutes wasted with Manchester there. A U2 site U2start said that very few fans across forums got GA

Announce the 2nd date and put me out of my misery

kennyu272 · 26-01-2018 10:54am

Managed to get a GA for Manchester and 2x seats for Berlin this morning.Delighted with that!

The demand gets higher every tour it seems. I don't remember it been this high in the 90's

In Europe anyways. No clue about America

Chivito550 · 26-01-2018 11:12am

I picked up 2 standing tickets for 2 of the 4 Dublin nights in 2015 in one fell swoop. Monday and Saturday.

I got them on the Ticketmaster app when I was trying for Berlin on the desktop

The app wasn't working for me, so I imagine I needed to change the settings to UK.

A Saturday show would suit me better anyways if it does go ahead.

Are all the dates sold out now?
