| Liam Gallagher's 2024 'Definitely Maybe' Tour in Manchester Sells Out: Fan Frustration on Social Media |
In a rush of excitement and anticipation, fans of Liam Gallagher were met with frustration as tickets for his 2024 'Definitely Maybe' tour in Manchester went on sale at 9 am. Within two hours, all dates, including the four gigs at Co-op Live, had completely sold out.
The overwhelming demand for tickets prompted the former Oasis lead singer to announce a fourth date at Co-op Live, ensuring that his Manchester fans could catch his performance on June 15, 16, 27, and 28.
The writing was on the wall when pre-sale tickets for the initial three dates sold out in under 20 minutes just days before the general sale. As expected, the general sale launch generated a frenzy of ticket seekers, many of whom took to social media to share their experiences.
Twitter was abuzz with fans expressing their frustration under the hashtag 'Liam Gallagher Manchester.' Some fans reported being in virtual waiting rooms from as early as 8:50 am, only to find themselves as far back as 20,000th in the queue. When the fourth date, June 28, was announced, some hopeful attendees missed out, leaving them "GUTTED," as one fan lamented.
Another fan raised concerns about the resale market, saying, "It's also really insulting that hundreds of tickets are now selling at ridiculously high prices! A system like Glastonbury needs to be done, genuine fans miss out!" The sentiment was echoed by many, who voiced their frustration at the number of tickets appearing on resale sites, seemingly snatched up by scalpers looking to profit. One fan aptly pointed out, "You have sold out but there are loads of tickets on resale sites, so at the moment, you haven't got his fans coming. It was farcical this morning. Liam and the fans are being ripped off... resale tickets should only be face value only!"
With tickets for all four dates officially sold out, the best course of action for fans now is to keep an eye on Ticketmaster's resale page in the hopes of snagging a ticket at face value. Liam Gallagher's 'Definitely Maybe' tour has certainly created a buzz among his devoted followers, but it also highlights the ongoing challenges surrounding ticket availability and scalping in the world of live music events.
