It’s officially the hottest day in concert sales of the year so far with tickets up for grabs to see Kylie Minogue, Coldplay, Sting, Iron Maiden, and Justin Timberlake.

It’s been a particularly fraught time for fans of late, as dynamic pricing, stupidly expensive resold tickets, and huge demand booting many out of the opportunity to see their favourite artists.

The bloody battle to get tickets has affected all corners of fandoms, from Swifties to Sabrina Carpenter fans and bucket hat-wearing Oasis hopefuls – and today is set to be just as much of a scramble.

The stress is real – and we’re getting serious Glastonbury ticket drop flashbacks – but here is all the information you need to know about getting your hands on those precious concert tickets today.

Good luck, babes.

Coldplay

General sale began on Friday, September 27 at 9am. According to prices listed on the official AXS website, general admission standing tickets are priced at £100. Seats are priced from £50 – £175 per ticket.
