    Here's a handy site for seat views.

    https://aviewfrommyseat.com/venue/Croke+Park/seating-chart/

    There's no concert photos for that section but there are some for the section next to you (703) and they look good.

    Thanks for that. Have actually checked this site prior to posting my query 😄

    Just in the fear that we may be too high and squashed into the corner of the stadium - don't want to be caught out with only a side view of the stage, and not of Chris Martin and his antics.

    Last time Coldplay were in Dublin, we had seats in the Upper Davin. Those seats were nice; they were very central but a bit far away. Amazing atmosphere & show none the less though!

    No problem! You should be good. Personally I'd take upper seats nearer the stage than lower tickets further away so I'd be happy with those. They'll also have a B stage and walkway that runs down to the center of the pitch so even if you end up a bit tight, you'll still see everything on the B stage.

    I'd imagine the week before the gig it'll be the same craic as Taylor Swift were you can't get in a queue to but tickets with a code? So heads up for that. I don't what way you get the codes I'd imagine it's like presale where you apply?

    There won't be codes. There were none for the original sale so there won't be for any future ticket releases. TS was an anomaly to manage demand.

    I think it's at the time of just keep regularly checking for tickets but also using common sense. A resale ticket came up this afternoon, I could have bought it, but I really don't feel comfortable paying €400 for a ticket. Someone did though because it was gone a few minutes later.

    The issue with buying resale is you then can't resale that ticket, you can only transfer it to someone. And I didn't want to be stuck with a €400 ticket if a better and/or cheaper ticket came along on Ticketmaster.

    That's all I'm seeing the last few days, tickets costing €300 - €400. Where and how much did you get yours for?

    I got a resale Floris pitch ticket for €300, the most I've ever spent on a concert ticket.

    But it's the only one of the experience tickets I said I'd pay for because it gives me early pitch entry so I can be right at the front.

    But that's still ridiculously expensive. I'm hoping they'll come down in price nearer to the date.

    I don't think the overhang will be in your way.

    Oh it completely is. €40 of it is just the resale charges, and another €10 is the original Ticketmaster charge. In 2017 I paid €90, I think including charges it was €97 for the whole ticket.

    You might be lucky to get cheaper tickets. I know in 2017 my mum got 2 premium tickets the day before the concert, at €150 each, originally on sale at €300 each. Of course inflation and price gauging from promoters has significantly increased prices in recent years.

    Croke park. They have a draw for residents.

    I thought all residents would be given tickets for the inconvenience of it.

    No, this time I think there were 100 pairs of tickets raffled. They're usually for the Thursday night.

    I seen a good few "Enhanced Experiences" tickets on sale the last few weeks but you're talking €300+. I'd say a lot of the general tickets will go on resale in a month or just outside the concert dates.

    Just back from the last of their Rome shows and I can confirm they're still amazing even after show number 146 of this tour alone!

    We had early entry which was a bit of a joke. Although we got right up the front, we didn't get in a whole lot earlier than general admission. Blistering heat doesn't help when you're just kept in various holding areas for hours.

    Having had early entry before in Frankfurt and Croker with no issue, this one was poorly managed, some water was provided by a crew member hosing people down whether they liked it or not. Not sure why they didn't just let the few hundred of us in to get food, water, and out of the direct sunlight.

    Rose Villain first act on, never heard of them but they were very good and their music complemented Coldplay. Janelle Monae came on next and I knew one or two of her songs, an amazing singer, but a bit of a head banger! Didn't really get much crowd participation as a result. She broke into some strange Michael Jackson type dance routine which went on for far too long to be entertaining, felt a bit sorry for her and I'm not in the habit of feeling sorry for millionaires. Strange one.

    But the band didn't disappoint at all with a mix of old and new songs thrown in. We were unlucky for a couple of songs they didn't play having played them the previous nights, but still a brilliant concert.

    Can't wait for Croke Park!

    Does anyone know if Ticketmaster allow you to swap or transfer resale tickets? I have two seating tickets for Coldplay Sunday 1st Sept purchased as resale tickets on Ticketmaster and looking to swap for standing on Friday 30th and not sure it is possible if I were to find someone willing to swap is it possible? Tks!!

    Usually yes, but who knows Ticketmaster.

    I could transfer my greenday resale ticket no problem, but the tickets were available straight away. I think Coldplay tickets are not available just yet.

    I'd say Ticketmaster will manage it the same way as Taylor Swift. The didn't allow a transfer until 48 hours before the gig.
