Peter Kay has shared a message from his tour promoter assuring fans that there are ‘plenty’ of tickets left for his tour ahead of them going on general sale.
Fans were left devastated after struggling to get tickets in Thursday’s pre-sale after the O2 Priority site and app crashed due to the high level of demand.
Peter took to Twitter to share a statement from SJM Concerts reassuring fans that they would have another chance to get their hands on the coveted tickets.
It read: ‘We’d like to acknowledge and apologise for a number of technical issues customers experienced while trying to buy tickets for Peter Kay’s upcoming live tour via the O2 Priority pre-sale earlier today.
‘SJM Concerts would like to reassure customers that substantial provision has been put in place for the main ticket on-sale this Saturday 12th at 10am.
‘Plenty of tickets will be available throughout the day so please persevere and please buy from official ticket outlets listed on the attached link.’

As well as touring the UK, the comedian will also become the first person to perform a monthly residency at London’s O2 Arena.
After hundreds of fans missed out on pre-sale tickets due to technical issues, O2 shared a statement saying the ticket sale caused the highest demand for Priority tickets in 15 years.

Their first statement said: ‘We’re seeing extraordinary demand for Peter Kay. We know customers are struggling to get on to our Priority website and app before 10am, we’re working on it. Please be patient, thank you.’
They updated fans a few minutes later, adding: ‘We’re seeing unprecedented demand for Peter Kay tickets & we know a lot of you can’t access Priority.
‘Sorry, we’re working on it. Please be patient; this is by far the highest demand we’ve ever seen for Priority Tickets in 15 years. The presale lasts for 48h so keep checking.’
Tickets go on general sale on Saturday November 12 at 10am.
