Last-minute Britney tickets!?

Options
Hey all!

So I went to Britneys concert on Thursday 4th June (it was awesome)! Anyway there were a lot of fans in front of us who only paid £5 to go...They said that they were sent a link from ticketmaster? Also someone paid £20 and said seetickets sent her a link. Does anyone here know about this?

I read up on it (stumbled across a few other people who said they paid £5) and apparently last minute tickets are a known thing from ticketmaster. Just wondered how this all worked?

Many Thanks!

    Hi,

    Sign up to their emails .... then you will / may get sent offers via email.

    I do this for a lot of things .... hotels / flights etc & am always getting offers through.

    Yeah, I'd love to know...loads were only £2 last night!!!

    If anyone knows how to get sent these links; I buy a lot from Ticketmaster and See Tickets but don't ever get offered these deals.

    Hi all,

    According to this article from the Sun (article link) the £2 tickets are actually from a group called The Audience Club (who you need to pay in order to join). They specialise in providing last minute cheap tickets on behalf of the show promoter if venues are unsold.

    As far as I know, they are the only ones offering the £2 tickets. Ticketmaster did do a 2 for 1 offer but I think those tickets went quite quickly.
