FAQ
Tickets
What is pre-registration?
Ticketmaster Verified Fan makes it easier for fans to get tickets to events they love. The Verified Fan pre-registration process ensures more fans get access to tickets, while limiting access to bots and scalpers.
Fans can register here until 1:00 AM ET on Sunday, June 25. Using a random lottery, Ticketmaster will distribute unique codes via text message prior to the presale. Not all verified fans will receive a code if inventory is limited. For more information, head over to the registration page.
What do I get if I pre-register?
A chance to get early access to buy a limited quantity of floor seats and discounted tickets (2-day bundles and single day seats) during the presale on June 26 before they open to everyone else on June 27.
When will the presale happen?
Presale will only happen for a limited time on Monday, June 26 from 12:00 PM ET to Tuesday, June 27 at 10:00 AM ET.
What's the difference between the presale and general sale?
The presale will have a limited quantity of tickets on sale early, first dibs on floor seats, and discounted prices (25% off bundles and 10% off single day tickets).
