Also shows in Paris and Madrid. a short tour for Europe/UK........

[henry bear]

I know the prices are going to be eye-watering, but I can’t not go. Having recently been to the Co-op without particularly enjoying the venue, back to the O2 it is (assuming I get tickets)

[The Nal]

Im tempted. Will have a look at footie fixtures too. Old Trafford and a Macca weekend would be nice.

 

Absolutely mental that Macca is doing 3 hour gigs back to back at age 82.

[Glasto Weatherwatch]

100% need to see McCartney as v good chance it's his last tour and I've promised the kids after not bringing them to Glastonbury two years ago. Will pinch a mate's O2 phone number and try for presale - is it pretty straightforward to do that does anyone know?

So what you're saying is that if I wanted to maintain my price policy of not spending more than £90 on a ticket that this isn't the show for me.

[Porcelina]

Based on recent pricing, I think £130-£150 for upper tier, £230 for lower tier and £180 standing.

Hmmm

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Must be why hotels that night are already on the pricey side.

Will be a great couple of days 😀

[Supreme2]

Based on the Madrid presale - was around €184 for front standing, €124 for back standing and seats ranging from €51 to €164 - also can anyone inform why some artists do standing in EU but seats in UK as like usual for McCartney the floor is seating again?

[Gejonimo]

I know some may see that as funny or a good couple of days, but as someone who has been to Co-Op Live, a Macca show on the same day as Manchester derby at the Etihad is an absolute f**king nightmare. They're literally next to each other, connected by a big slope and share car parks. That is a logistical death trap and the police are gonna have their hands more than full.

Going off the ticket pictures/sections, it looks like it's all seating.

It will probably be moved to the Sunday, which doesn’t help either!

Because they can earn more money? It's the same reason a lot of artists charge more for their UK shows than they do mainland Europe (after exchange rates taken into consideration). Stick a couple of those floor blocks into packages with various drinks/meal/hospitatility add ons and you're into the megabucks. 

Wouldn't be at all surprised if he has dynamic/variable pricing in play too.

[Gejonimo]

It will definitely have dynamic pricing involved. Presale tickets will be half the price of general onsale I reckon.

[charlierc]

Apparently ticket prices to Pearl Jam at the Tottenham Stadium have been halved, leading to a lot of people wondering why the hell they were insisting on Taylor Swift-level pricing to begin with and on a weekend where many people will already have plans.

 

Seems like a bit of a mess ngl.

Oh I forgot about that total mess being a potential factor.

It serves PJ and their promoters/management right. This is the first EU tour organised since they had a new tour manager take over. 
They decided to go with much higher pricing this time, bringing (after exchange rates factored in) the entry cost to a PJ gig to the same for UK/EU/USA/AUS/NZ but not factoring in that the costs of living in all of these places are very different. 
For the Tottenham Stadium gig, Ten Club tickets were offered at £185.00 for front circle standing or good side seats, or £157.00 for everywhere else. General sale brought dynamic pricing into play on the best tickets, and many of those remain above the initial price. 
Tickets in the south stand failed to move... TM have tried their usual tricks of removing whole blocks from sale to make it look like demand is there, prices have dropped £125, £95, £91, £63, and now £49. These tickets aren't selling because the casuals who might have gone were put off by original prices, or already have tickets for Green Day on the same day, or tickets to other stadium shows announced before. 
PJ also released over 1000 tickets for Manchester the other day, I believe this may still be one of the gigs being run at 15k capacity rather than full arena. There are loads of tickets left for Berlin and both nights in Barcelona also due to pricing.

Love her songs but been left cold by her live twice. MOMMA on support though....might reconsider.
