O2 Lady Gaga ticket limit?

Options
I am pretty keen on getting Lady Gaga tickets for my missus as she is a massive fan.

She was surprised about how many people have managed to get tickets today even though they don't go on sale until Friday. These are all O2 customers, who are allowed access to tickets 48 hours early.

With only about 80,000 tickets available to the whole of the UK, she is a bit worried if there will be any left on Friday when they go on general sale.

Does anybody know if there is a limit to how many tickets O2 will sell?

    I think there are limits the presales as I always find good tickets left on the actual sale day. Live Nation are doing a pre sale tomorrow at 10am, you just need to register an account before the sale to enable you to get tickets. I am going to try this tomorrow and if they they arent that too good a seats I will wait until Friday and try ticketmaster :) Good Luck!

    Thank you so much, my daughter wanted to go and like OP was worried tickets would all be gone very quickly on Friday, plus as at work would find it hard to get on when they go live. I got two twickenham tickets in the pre-sale for daughter's birthday.

    Oh well, tried....... and failed. All gone in less than a minute.

    Expecting to see the ticket "exchange" sites flooded with tickets at 4-5x the face value.
  • Snap!!
    Im gutted as i overslept yesterday for the pre-sale and today i turned down 3 tickets on the upper tier and then it sold out!!

    Kicking myself now!!:(

    There is a two day gap between the London and Manchester gigs. I reckon they could slip in another date somewhere. Hopefully somwehere close to me!
  • Got myself tickets this morning through Ticketmaster :). Have read that the tickets for Twickenham sold out in 50 seconds! :eek:

    I think there will more dates added, plus they normally release extra seats nearer the time when they work out where the set etc is going.
  • I managed to get two tickets for Twickenham but would like to swap them for Manchester ones if possible. Does anyone know how I could go about this without letting my London ones go first?

    Thanks :beer:

    Being sold by the promoter, the ticket sites themselves or professional touts.

    The day when selling tickets for more than 10% above face-value becomes outlawed will be the day music fans get a good deal.

    I am amazed, people will part with such money in such a panic for such a korny pop music made up act.
