Did you try to book online?


Yes. Toronto, Niagara Falls, Buffal hotels all booked. By reseller sites no doubt.



I booked a room in Miami but as a pp mentioned major hotel chains aren't booking that far out.

You are so incredibly rude. Good lord.

You are lower than the gum on my shoe, you greedy pig.


DP- buck up and pay for tickets. No one owes you a chance at tickets.


Huh? People are more than willing to pay, I just want the ability to actually be able to buy the tickets. I have never been lucky to get even a code, despite registering for every single leg of this tour.


We had no problems buying tickets in the resale market. There were tons of tickets not even purchased. If you want to go, you will.


So much privilege. None of those resale tickets were remotely affordable for the average person. I can't spend $10,000 to take my kid. Get out of your own bubble. Seriously.

I know several people who when they got out of the queue to buy tickets buy extra for the sole purpose to scalp, resell at a super high price. Did they sell to their friends or family at what it costed them or just a little higher. NO. The entire resale business is disgusting.


First we didn’t pay close to $10k for 2 tickets. Have you seen that there are floor tickets for $400 available this week in LA? Second, it’s all supply and demand. There was way too much demand for the supply so your choice is to either complain about not being able to buy a ticket through Ticketmaster or figure out another way to go. This isn’t like a roof over your head or food and water. It’s a freaking concert.


LOL where are these mystical $400 floor seats selling, Miss Piggy?


You must not be following the right Twitter accounts…


Drop the usernames/links then. Stop gatekeeping.

NP. You are rude and basically shaming people who aren’t as wealthy, inventive, creative or whatever to shell out insane money and time. You really are awful.

No, it’s just because hotels won’t open bookings until 11-12 months out. So November 2024 will show as unavailable/full until November/December 2023. I’m big into planning ahead and have encountered this many times, trust me. Most airlines are the same. You want to book as soon as possible, but that won’t be for a few more months.


She broke hotel occupancy records in Chicago and Cincinnati. And hotels in Philly were 98% full. Chicago and Toronto have similar populations so we can probably assume hotels in Toronto will be 100% booked and they will go for top dollar. Hopefully you can make a vacation out of it. Or stay on the train line further out where there might be more availability or lower rates.


These stats don’t seem in line with real world anecdotes. Personally, we got last minute philly tix and had no issue finding a hotel same day. Many options all around the city to choose from.

This might end up backfiring. There’s a new Eras buying process that involves two-factor ID at the end. It was used for some Europe shows and will probably be the std going fwd. it’s not enough to have the code, now you need access to the registered email and phone through the whole buying process.

They should just go back to camping out for these tickets, so only the deserved who really really want it will sleep on the sidewalk for a night or two outside the Ticketmaster door.

That's because they're only taking reservations up to July 2024 right now 👍🤣
