How to purchase Coldplay tickets
Tickets for Coldplay's headline stadium tour went on sale last month and have mostly sold out. However, a good number of tickets are still available on various resale websites. These platforms, including Viagogo, StubHub and others, allow fans to buy and sell their tickets at their convenience, at a price they set.
viagogo and resale tickets
Sites such as Viagogo and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that many event promoters say tickets should not be resold after initial purchase and will not be valid for admittance to gigs.
Fans attending live events with tickets acquired through resale websites are advised to double check the ticket terms and conditions at the point of sale - such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation - to ensure a smooth live event experience. Tickets could be voided if they were found to be bought second-hand. As a result, fans are buying at their own risk.
With that said, viagogo also commented: "viagogo is a regulated marketplace where fans have the guarantee."
