lost concert tickets

ellens

Help!
I have probably thrown away 4 concert tickets, "standing" so tickets not numbered.
Is there anything I can do?
The concert is in four weeks time, and the tickets were a special treat for someone who has just lost their parent, so I just cannot tell them without trying everything first!
They were bought on credit card.
Cheers

Try contacting the place where you purchased the tickets from, I am pretty sure tho that "Standing" non numbered tickets cannot be replaced,

Just because they didn't have a seat number on them doesn't mean each ticket wasn't unique in the way they were designed (i.e. they could have a number on them, say they produce 1000 tickets you buy the 343rd it will say 343 on it) in which case they may be able to do something but contact them ASAP as they may need time to sort it out. If you bought them through an agent they probably won't be able to help (where you bought the tickets from) but the venue where the concert is may be able to.

I'm sorry but standing tickets (whether numbered or not) can not be duplicated. I used to work in a box office. This is the reason why standing tickets have to be sent out by registered post so there is prrof of delivery.

The main reason for this is health and safety and venue capacity. If tickets were lost or stolen then someone else could use them, issuing duplicate ones means that the venue could go over their fire safety capacity etc etc. I have known instances of touts trying to sell dupes for seated tickets, allowing dupes for standing would be asking for trouble.

Really sorry this is not what you wanted to hear.
