How to buy tickets for several shows ?

How to buy tickets for several shows ?

Postby olivier on 05 Mar 2007 13:45

Can I buy tickets for more than one show on TPT, as I will plan to see The Police in different countries in Europe ?
I read this on TPT Help/FAQ section:

"As a PREMIUM member of ThePoliceTour.com you can purchase tickets for one show on the tour with a limit of up to four tickets. Please note, if you buy less than the maximum limit of tickets, the remainder does not carry over to additional shows or transactions. Ticket quantities may vary based on availability.
The reason for this ticket limit is so we can ensure more fans have access to presale tickets."

Thanks for your help !
Olivier.

Welcome to hell, my friend...

Just kidding. But the reality is that you can only buy 4 tix through your FC code. In the U.S., you've been allowed to buy more than one membership, which some people have realized means only a $25 surcharge per ticket (and the FC tix have been better than the general admission seating.)

Gulps !
thanks DoTD, but you mean 4 tix, OK but can it be 2 for one show and 2 for another one ?

Hey Oliver
My understanding is that, no, you cannot break them up that way. If you don't use all 4, you forfeit what you don't use.
I would suggest getting 4 and doing a swap on the TPT ticket swap board? Maybe that could help you?

Here's how it's gone in the U.S...

Some people have ordered two from two different shows, but there's some question as to whether Ticketmaster may cancel all your tickets if you do that. Most people seem to think it'll be OK, but you are taking the risk. (I realize Ticketmaster is probably called something else in Europe, but I'm fairly sure your ticketing outlets are also owned by the same global conglomerates ours are.)

There's also language in the FC tour page that says you're allowed four tickets - but you can only make one transaction (which means you can't buy two sets of two). This is another issue most people think will be OK, but be aware there's been controversy on these issues.

And don't bother emailing the help desk at thepolicetour.com....the help desk staff is sending out contradictory information. One person says doing this is OK, the next says it is not.

Mmm I see !
The problem is that I'd like to purchase 4 tix tomorrow for the London concert, but my first plan was to see them in my country in Paris in sept.29 !
So if I can't get anymore tickets with TPT, it would be very difficult with the only date The Police will do in France !

Well, you can buy more than one Fan Club membership. It's up to you whether you want to pay the extra cash, but some people have been doing that.

Of course, there's always Ebay...:)

There are already two shows confirmed for Germany, Given the size of france I find it unlikely that they will only play once in that country, but of course it would be nice to see some confirmation before the presales start!

4 German dates!
You all forget Mannheim, which is confirmed on the German promoter's website

www.mlk.com

Considering the POLICE's experience in Germany in 1983 it shouldn't be too hard to get tickets the usual way. But the geography might invite lots of foreign fans to visit the German dates: Denmark, Poland, Belgium, France, Suisse, Holland...

I for one will try to get tickets for dusseldorf, Dietmar, should i use my pre sale code to get tickets or take my changes during the public sale? I am thinking of using the presale ticket opportunity for Stockholm (would be great to be there!)
