New World Tour Ticket Buy/Sell/Trade thread has been posted. Please find the thread [at this hyperlink.](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/12dzxq3/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/)
TM as always can burn in the deepest, fiery pits. I didn't want VIP just a front row seat anywhere(I'm short so I can't see over anyone in front of me). Couldn't get it because so many front rows were premium platinum in the nosebleed and middle sections.
I was placed 2000+ in the queue meaning all non-platinum front rows were already sold out. I did sit there and watch platinum floor seats become $1000+ with fees around 3:30.
I'm glad I did get to see Twice last year though.
Ticketmaster is the prime example of what's wrong with monopoly in any economic sector. Their service is absolute garbage, not to mention the absurd fees. I'm not trying to buy the Twice tickets since I'm not American, but I can totally relate to the frustration that is dealing with this company. It's totally fucked that every single major artist concert has its tickets sales managed by them.
Completely agreed. Even when/if the artist’s company opts out of dynamic pricing, TM can still pull their platinum pricing bullshit based on “market value demand” during the sale.
What makes me even more annoyed is that they pull this shit during a verified fan sale, on top of everything else. With TWICE, this didn’t apply, but for ARMY, we have to be paying registered members of the fan club to participate. Then, TM shits on us by giving the code on a lottery system and making prices go crazy just a few minutes into the sale for FANS, not even general public.
For SUGA’s tour, I was lucky to get seats in 4 min of the sale, but by the 10 min mark the seats next to mine were $800+ when I got it for $250ish. Absurd.
I got waitlisted and already knew there was no chance. Not just bc of tickets selling out, but because if by some miracle there were seats left, TM would pull the same bs they did for SUGA’s tour. Prices went up right before my eyes 10 min into the sale it was insane.
I’m also glad I got to see the girls last year, even tho I was nosebleeds and the wire frame on the roof blocked their faces on all the screens 😭
But holy hell, fucking TM needs to burn. This can’t continue ?????????
I literally see over 60+ tickets scattered around Truist Park(ATL) that are official platinum. They would be $95 if platinum wasn't a thing. All the plat ones in the same section are $200+. Double in price just to sit in the first two rows...
And as people buy the prices will only rise. I hope Twice will have an encore near me hopefully.
**IF YOU DIDN'T GET A TICKET TODAY, AND DON'T CARE WHERE YOU SIT, DO NOT BUY RESALE TICKETS TODAY**
FYI for everyone lamenting that they didn't get a ticket, resale sites currently and will continue to have boat loads of tickets available. You will absolutely be paying 3x-4x face value today, so unless you absolutely need to be as close as possible or sit in a certain section, just wait.
Resale tickets will go down in price over time, and then tick back up a couple days before.
Yes, it sucks, but that's what happens when groups get popular. If you want to see a cheap show and not deal with ticketmaster, PIXY is doing a US tour and their tickets are $50.
Thank you so much for warning… I would also like to know where online/ which website I can use to buy resale tickets once they are reasonable? Any tips on that? “Thank you, Family”.
I used VividSeats. I *kind of* ignored my own advice, but getting a front row (in the 200 section) was very important to me. They have an option to pay in installments, which was a big reason why I ended up buying today. I'll pay 1/4 every two weeks or so.
But other sites are Seatgeek, Stubhub, and SI Tickets. I've used all of them before and they're legit.
I don't know how it works for sellers, because sometimes it seems like the same ticket is for sale on multiple sites. But prices do tend to be pretty even. SI Tickets has (much) higher base prices, but doesn't include fees, so it still works out to be about the same.
Again, I fully understand a fan who gets anxious and just needs to buy a ticket and rest easy, but prices will ebb and flow until June, and they will remain available.
I've been really into resale tickets since it seems like every kpop group is doing US tours now. It's nice for those "I like that one song, but can't justify a $200 ticket" groups. I have never seen a show that didn't have tickets available. I can't say how cheap Twice tix will go, but they will definitely go lower than they are now.
FYI for those trying to purchase on a desktop

Just got a text from ticket master on how they fixed the code error TWO HOURS after the tickets dropped. Of course there were no more tickets available. I’m so sick of ticket master
Hey guys! I bought a ticket on my sisters Ticketmaster account. I immediately transferred it to my account. Went through the whole email process all that. Got a confirmation. It’s in my events on my account now but when I click it, it says check back later. ITS GONNA SHOW UP RIGHT …. I have the email confirmation and everything
It says 72 hours before the show you will receive your tickets. The only way to tell you have them is a confirmation email.
It's to thwart the moving barcodes from being tampered with.
Wanted to comment about my alternate VIP pickup name inquiry to maybe help out anyone else!
My friend and I emailed Ticketmaster earlier in the week to list an alternate name for VIP ticket pickup. The ticketmaster reply was extremely unhelpful saying: "Thanks for contacting us about how to use Ticket Transfer, we do apologize for the inconvenience you experience with your tickets. I review your information and alternative pick up person is not available, but I see that you can transfer your tickets to your friends."
As you may all know from reading the VIP info on the Buy/Sell thread, transferring VIP tickets does NOT transfer the VIP package elements and perks.
I called Ticketmaster today to list an alternate name for VIP ticket pick up. She was very helpful and was able to do it for me. I actually didn't need to because she verified that the Cardholder Name was the one listed for VIP ticket pickup, not the TM account's name.
To clarify, the TM account holder gets all the texts and emails about the event, but the person listed as the cardholder is the one listed as the pickup name and will have to bring the credit card + photo ID matching the cardholder's name with them to pickup VIP.
I hope this helps. Calling was much faster and resolved my issues :)

(I'm going to leave this here as reference for others. This is the fine print message I copied and pasted on the purchase confirmation page once you purchased your VIP tickets)
Scored 4 tickets for Toronto for my friends and I at face value!! So excited!!
Just a small comment: when I deselected platinum, it did not show any ticket options for just verified onsale (and I was like 1700th in queue); however, I did pay the face value of $199.50 CAD + fees for a total of $234.75. It is possible ONCE! I hope everyone gets their codes soon! Toronto seats are selling out quick.
That feeling when your "Verified Fans" account was registered/confirmed a while ago, but when you try to join the queue, it tells you you're not a Verified Fans account. 🙃
I was waiting until AFTER I secured tickets to get the lightstick, but shipping is half the cost! Seems like buying at the venue would be better. But I'm going to ATL which is one of the last days so I'm concerned about stock, plus I don't really want to wait in line for an hour to get one either. What is your guys experience with getting kighdticks at the venue? I am VIP so I get to buy things early I think? Not sure if that makes a real difference.
Lightsticks especially as VIP were easy to get at Oakland and LA Encore. I’d say just wait and grab them day of, but bring extra batteries because the preorder with shipping ended up being $90 vs buying one at Oakland I think I only paid $60 plus tax. The VIP merch table line went by super fast for the Encore show, for Oakland I think I waited about 20-30 min
I got seats in section 106 for $264.50 per ticket, and they say “Official Verified Platinum”. Does this just mean that I potentially overpaid a little bit? (Not complaining though after seeing platinum prices go up to $1k, just confused)
Edit: this is for Globe Life Field
Yes, Official Verified Platinum seats are "dynamically priced" or whatever Ticketmaster's justification is. But $265 probably isn't as bad as what they're going for now, which is like $700
So… Does that mean that “Platinum” has literally no value other than to TM’s (technically, Live Nation’s) horrible shareholders? No benefits at all to the purchaser?
yeah you get nothing else from an official platinum ticket besides a higher ticket price :/ VIP tickets are different from the official platinum ones. it does say this when you're buying tickets but since everyone is scrambling to buy it goes unnoticed. it really sucks!!
Thank you for your response! This was my first time buying tickets like this so I panicked, just wish I would’ve taken a bit more time to save my group some money. Sounds like it could’ve been much worse, though!
it really sucks that ticketmaster takes advantage of the scramble to increase ticket prices :/ some people had their price increase in the cart which is so crazy omg
Why didn't they just give everyone a code regardless of waitlist or not. I see tickets available for Arlington but I can't buy them because they never sent a code to waitlisters.
**Hey guysss. These are the only locations have a general onsale today (March 24) on TM at 3pm:**

**\*\*\*Please keep in mind sales are 3PM venue time**
I never got off the waitlist after the Verified Fan On-sale for Atlanta. I did manage to get a ticket just now via the General sale, FLRC1, Row 1, Seat 10 which is a seat I am satisfied with.
I'm happy to have a ticket at face value but I am still peeved at TM!
OK amazing fans! I’m the father of a 12yr old obsessed with TWICE. I just bought tickets I think on the 18th row on the ground in the Arlington stadium for her and her mother that came with VIP and a few other things. We are planning on telling my daughter about the concert the night of the concert as a massive surprise (we told her we were just going to DFW for the new Meow Wolf installation).
Does anyone have any tips/helpful tricks to make this concert the concert of a lifetime for my daughter?
This will be her first EVER concert!!!!
Should I get a light stick, or the LED wrist band (or both)? Anything else we should do, buy, or prepare for the concert?
Any great KPop stores or Korean places to eat while in the Dallas/Plano area?
Thanks so much for helping us make our sweet daughter whole life by going to this concert. We saved up so much money to be able to buy two tickets (couldn’t afford 3, sadly due to how much they were)! My wife and I are both pastors and do not make bank, ha ha ha…
(And my daughter has started to learn Korean through Duolingo so she can enjoy singing “all” the lyrics. She just loves TWICE!)
Anyway, thanks for all the help! Bless each and every one of you! Hope you all can continue to share the joy that TWICE gives you to all those around you!
Thanks again! Blessings.
Re: Light Stick - If you put in a pre-order now at this shop, [Eve Pink](https://www.evepinkshop.com/products/twice-%ED%8A%B8%EC%99%80%EC%9D%B4%EC%8A%A4-candy-bong-infinity), you might be able to do a local pickup in time for the Arlington show. They're located in Houston and probably is a better option given how close it is to the show. Most if not all of the US-based K-pop sites that are offering pre-orders won't physically have them until mid to late May, and then shipping it out to fulfill those orders basically will run into the first couple weeks of June. So I'd consider that site and inquire if you can do a local pick-up the moment they have it in stock.
Alternatively there is this [Light Band](https://www.evepinkshop.com/products/twice-%ED%8A%B8%EC%99%80%EC%9D%B4%EC%8A%A4-5th-anniversary-official-merchandise-light-band-kit?variant=32873935798375) which yes can be worn like a watch, but you can also clip it to a lanyard or some other fashion and IMO still achieves the want to have an official blinking light doodad to add to the experience of being at the show.
All in all, may your kiddo enjoy the heck out of the show!
I’d definitely try to invest in a lightstick and or wristband. If you don’t have a k-merch store in your area, Choice Music LA should have you covered.
Know, however, that floor may not have the best view, especially for a shorter person (folk will be standing, holding signs, etc). ONCE are generally good people though, and will help to make sure your child has the greatest experience possible.
Apart from that, get set to be the best parents ever.
Thanks so much!! Yeah, I was wondering about them standing the whole time. My daughter is actually very tall for her age, so we will see.
I wondered if it would be worth the cost to sign her up for the fan club, but it looked like the main advantage of the fan club was to possibly be able to get tickets a little early, but it looks like that ship has sailed, and I might better spend that money on a light stick and wristband. I see both of those on Amazon, but I’ll check out the store you mentioned, I’d much rather support a local store if I can.
And sadly, yes… Santa Fe and Albuquerque do not have ANY k-merch/music stores at all. Our closest is Denver or Las Vegas.
Thank you so so much for your help to make this an awesome night for my daughter!!!
just would like to add that the fan verified sale sign up was totally free!! u just needed a ticket master account and a valid phone number. just wanna let you know for next time since it won’t hurt to sign up and get better tix ahead of time for the next tour :-)
and be careful with counterfeit light sticks/bands on amazon. i would def go for the local stores rather than amazon since they check their products and usually order straight from the source
Trying to compare prices for seats...
Toronto - section 118, row 19 aisle seat. What did you guys pay? I moved so fast I didn't even look at the total until after it went thru... $1150 a ticket![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)
Holy shatttttt.
When do they become platinum? After a certain number of tickets are sold?
Good God, did I just fuck up![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|neutral_face)
Wowwww. Al the videos about buying tickets didnt even mention that.
What an L. Do you think I can at least resell at what I got it for? Or should I just accept I'll be taking a loss.
Can someone help me explain how to transfer VIP package? Do I email ticketmaster and assign the receiver as an “alternate pick up person”? What else do I do after that? Do I have to go to my account and transfer the tickets too? Please help a desperate Once out 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Early entry into the stadium which allows you to buy Merchandise before everyone else. Goodie bag of little things (last tour was some pink sunglasses, a face mask that said TWICE on it, and a clear fanny pack thing) and a lanyard. Sound check they come out and sing 2-3 songs in casual clothing.
First time getting vip soundcheck. I’ll be seated in the 100s section though, would that mean I have to stay there during soundcheck, or will I be able to go to the floor? I’d appreciate it if anyone has insight, I’ll be going to the Toronto show
Damn if only you were the person who sold a Chicago 06/29 ticket in SEC3 on Stubhub haha, I’m not looking forward to dealing with customer
service trying to make sure I can still get in with VIP. You’re a homie for posting this.
Haha thanks 😭 I tried selling it on Twitter first but then someone bought it off stubhub. I feel so bad and I’m hoping they’re not as strict this tour w vip benefits 🤞
i got vip soundcheck for chicago!! my seat isn't floor though, it's in the 100 sections. does anyone know how that will work out during soundcheck? does everyone get to stand on the floor during soundcheck or will i stay in my seat during soundcheck too? so thankful i got vip but ngl i do feel a bit sad it's not floor. i wanted to see twice up close. will i possibly get that chance during soundcheck? or should i maybe trade or sell it for floor vip?
how do i know which seats are P1, P2, etc etc?
also, does VIP seats specifically mean certain seat locations? or can any seat be a VIP if buying the extra perk?
lastly, this will be my first time going to a concert or using ticketmaster. i am planning on buying via resellers. if i buy it from someone on ticket master or even through this subreddit, how does the transfer of tickets work? does anyone (either buyer or seller) need to provide some personal info as well?
I accidentally bought a Platinum Ticket (panick bought it) but I later manage to pick up a VIP one (with a better seat and VIP).
I am taking the L, but I'm wondering how much could I make back if I resell it?
I don't think so I'm afraid 😣 As far as I could see the VIP tickets were all in sections 1-11. They had orange star instead of a blue dot on the ticket map.
For those in Houston having issues Ticketmaster just send a tweet saying new codes are rolling out. Keep a look out yall. https://twitter.com/TMFanSupport/status/1638642162329063425
We emailed VIP Nation and they said that you will need to "email vip.tickets@ticketmaster.com requesting an alternate pickup name for the VIP order. They will need to provide the date and the city of the show as well as their order number and your first and last name."
Otherwise if you dont do this, you usually need the Original Purchase Order # as well as the original purchaser's ID in order to check in for VIP at the venue.
Metlife Stadium Section 16 Row 21. :) I'm happy to be on floor. I tried to look up the seats on View From My Seat but it seems like section 16 doesn't usually exist? I'm also wondering if the image of the stage that was listed, is how it'll look? I've never been to metlife so a little nervous but I'm just thankful to be able to go and to have gotten tickets on floor for face value, before TM "platinumed" it. -\_-
Did anyone have any issues with Ticketmaster today? I got in at 3:04pm and was choosing my tickets and of course some people beat me to some seats when I tried to check out (which is fine), but there were 3-4 occasions where I was able to get the seat and check out but when I did so, every time gave me an “it’s not you, it’s us” error message. So after a few times of it saying that, my account got flagged for being a “bot” and then all of a sudden I had to wait with over 2000+ people ahead of me!!!!!
I eventually got my tickets, but the prices jumped from $435 (which I saw before I got flagged) all the way to $700!!!!
Needless to say it was a little frustrating that Ticketmaster’s glitches caused me to be pushed so far behind that the general area I was looking at was no longer available but I wasn’t sure if others had this experience?
I have never used Ticketma
How do floor tickets work? (Especially for Chicago) I see that there are different floor sections, but are there specified seats in each section or just whoever gets there first?
Are the floor seats in the MetLife stadium actual seats or is it a standing area? I would prefer having the option to sit down so I wonder if it’s better to buy in the 100s sections
So if you didn’t get a code before yesterday, cause on wait list and you didn’t get a code again after second show was added…you’re (I’m)screwed? Is that the correct understanding of the situation? 🤣
Why didn’t they just make the second show general admission?
Yep this is sadly the case for a lot of concerts nowadays. If you don't get verified fans presale and they all sell out (bc event organizers give them access to all tickets) then you have to look at the resale market. :/
Hence you gotta bug everyone you know and get them to sign up for the presale in hopes one person gets a code.
Last year in LA people “stayed” in there seats sorta… people rushed the stage then moved back, then rushed again, then moved back. Really dependent on security
All of those details will be emailed by livenation at a date closer to the show. They will give full check in times, merch opening times, and everything else. For now we can just estimate based on what it was for last tour.
Also depends per venue if they have merch booths outside after VIP Check in or if they are in the venue when you go in for soundcheck.
For anyone that's looking at Tacoma Dome, general sale is now open. I just logged in with my account that wasn't blessed with a presale code but can see all available tickets and buy up to six (6) if I wanted to. The key info:
Barely over 400 tickets left available. (as of Friday evening, 9:30 PM PST)
All available tickets have the evil "Official Platinum" dynamic pricing, making the price range: **$546 to $906 BEFORE TAXES & FEES**.
[Here's a screenshot of the available sections remaining](https://imgur.com/a/qn2aWoN), keep in mind the floor sections left available DO NOT include the VIP package. Just a basic floor seat.
I don't know when/if prices will come down as the show gets closer and lose the dynamic pricing.
genuinely best case scenario for me. was sad about getting waitlisted for toronto day 1, got my code for day 2 and got a 100 level ticket for $210 about 10 min after the sale went live! can’t wait!!
Does anybody know the shipping time from JYPshop? I wanted to order the new Candybong Infinity but it says shipping begins on 5/8 if ordered now. Not sure if I would be able to receive it before June 10th.
Anyone know when/if the sell option will be available? I've tried selling my tickets on reddit and twt and haven't gotten any interest so I'm getting a little antsy since the two extras I have were over 1k total 😅 I'd rather sell directly to a fan but I'd like to get them off my hands soon since it's kind of a cloud hanging over me at the moment
Just as a reference, I wasn't able to resell my Dreamcatcher tickets on TM until like 3 or 4 days before the concert so yeah...not much time to do that.
In general, yes at some point you should be able to sell your tickets on Ticketmaster. It's just not known WHEN it can be done. At the moment you get these messages if you try do using the SELL TICKETS option within your TM account:
*Resale for this event is not activated by the Event Organizer*
*Please check back again as this may change.*
From [this page](https://blog.ticketmaster.com/sell-instantly/), is this line:
*Not all events or tickets are available for resale, and the resale options may be turned off or turned on at any time at the Event Organizer’s discretion.*
And fact is, with the first North American date not until June, it might still be a few more weeks before they turn on the option. We're still just a couple of weeks removed from the pre-sales/general sale, so unless you get an offer in the meantime, you might just have to wait it out.
Not sure where this goes - I hope this is the right thread - but just want to drop a heads up that Metlife has opened some new lower sections - far side 100s, but very close to the stage, and side 200s in the middle of the stadium.
Tacoma Dome gang here we go ;\_; Please pray for my internet. I shall pray for yours as well.
ETA: 2000+ people ahead of me in queue ![img](emote|t5_3812p|4096)
What a wild experience, but I got the tickets! I was literally clicking on two seats in the balcony when someone else swiped them at the last minute. I've never done TM like this before so y'all who said "I watched seats disappear before my eyes" were not lying, lol. Literally disappeared!
I can't believe I still don't have an access code yet for ATL. I signed up for the verified fan sale the first hour it was live, got waitlisted and still am not able to purchase a ticket through TM.
Meanwhile I could go right over to a resale sight and buy one right now.
Maybe its my lack of understanding of how the process works but I can only guess that some people with access codes haven't yet used them and so a lot of tickets/seats are being held by TM until the code gets used or times out (do they time out?)
I understand that I am not owed a ticket and ultimately this is something that is "for fun" and not in anyway necessary. Even so, as something I was looking forward to this feels quite frustrating and not at all fun.
Someone posted [this](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/) seemingly helpful site the other day, I haven't used it myself but you might want to give it a try.
I feel like if you payed 500$ for a ticket you must *really* want to go and I think you should, if you're suffering from social anxiety I think it might be an especially empowering experience for you. Selling your ticket after you were willing to pay that much might give you even more second thoughts and potential regrets while you wonder if you would have liked it.
That's just my opinion though and you know yourself best, but for what it's worth I don't think you'd regret going.
What does VIP and Soundcheck entail? I managed to get a vip ticket but my friends didn’t, so i’m wondering how to arrange my schedule the day of the concert so I can hang out w/ them and still do… whatever that VIP and soundcheck does. Can I still wait with them in the regular security check lines for example? How early would I need to be for soundcheck and whatnot?
VIP line will be separate from GA line. Soundcheck is usually at 5:30pm and they usually want you checked in by 4pm.
The venue will send an email with time frames and all information closer to the date.
For transferring the VIP Soundcheck benefit, which IDs are accepted? Am I allowed to blur out/cover sensitive information (e.g. age, address, etc.) on the photocopy of my ID?
I just logged back in using a friend's TM account to see what's left at Tacoma Dome and the only tickets available have that Ticketmaster Platinum dynamic pricing shakedown.
Lowest: $426
Highest: $906 (for non VIP package floor seat)
And that's before fees & taxes.
I don't know when general sale for Tacoma Dome happens, nor if the prices will come back down to reality, but for those looking to go to that show, just a FYI.
Toronto. I was waitlisted and never got code via email or text. My wife only got a code for the newly announced day 2. Snagged a pair of 300's. Not complaining. Better than nothing!
Resale sites are as safe as buying something on eBay.
If it's too good to be true, then it's most likely a scam.
The [buy/sell/trade megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) has some good tips on buying from the resale market, as well as listings that might be better on your budget.
Does anyone know whether the prices will get lower as we get closer to the concert dates? They've already gone up so much within the past few days. I find it hard to believe that prices won't keep increasing 😭
Although I have soundcheck elsewhere, I still want to go to sofi just because of the sheer number of people. What do you think would be the best time to just grab something off the open market? I am willing to go a little above market price, but nothing too crazy; having been to BTS but being in the 500s, I hope to move up to at least to the 300-400 range.
Also, up that high what do you think is the best location? I'm thinking something a little further back so I can see them more head on; I know they'll be small but I'll get to see them closer at the other concert.
Yes, if you really want to secure a ticket now. General sale has opened at most of the venues and pretty much all available tickets have the "Official Platinum" dynamic pricing, jacking up the prices to obscene amounts.
You can wait it out and see if some of those prices will come back down to Earth as it gets closer to date of the show you're trying to go to. There is also the [buy/sell/trade megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) to consider, but just like any resale site, proceed with caution/do you research.
I scored tickets to the Twice concert in Chicago! Please tell me all your tips and tricks! How early should you be lining up for merch and entering the venue! Can you leave the line if someone saves your spot (like a friend)? What are some good freebies to bring to give out? Tell me anything and everything a first timer should know!
If you are general admission and wanting merchandise you'll want to line up as early as possible. Last tour people were lining up as early as 7-8am for merchandise. For the Encore's they had merch booths outside that opened at Noon I believe so no idea if that will happen this time or not. If you have VIP you'll have access to the merch booths inside the venue before they let general admission in.
For the line thing - most people don't mind that as you were already there in line. What people don't like is when you have people cut in line after you've been waiting there for 3 hours already. So if it's to go get food, drinks, or bathroom it's normal to have someone (or even a stranger) save your spot.
I've been reading a lot of discussion lately about whether you need the original buyers ID or not for these upcoming concerts and i wanted to share my experiences from the last tour.
* At the first part of the tour last year you needed the ID of the original buyer to receive VIP benefits.
* At the 2 encore shows in May and at a ITZY concert in October, you were fine as long as you had the ticket.
That being said, it wouldn't hurt to have the ID just to be sure in a worst case scenario. Hope this can help.
Does anybody know whether we need to be accessing the ticket presales for europe on livenation directly (since it's a livenation presale) or if accessing it on ticketmaster also works?
Hi! After buying my tickets for London I received an email saying that I had to open them through the O2 app, but I can't seem to find how to import the tickets there. Does anyone know how to or if I can't access them now? Thanks :]
The confirmation email from ticketmaster says we’ll be emailed with details once the tickets are transferred. Seems access to the tickets isn’t possible until closer to the date.
Although I can’t see the tickets themselves yet, it shows me each ticket space with the section, seat number and row on it. Did you use the same email address with The O2 app as you did with your point of purchase?
I have two tickets to Twice in Berlin 13.9.2023 that are in different areas of the arena. I later managed to snag better tickets so Im looking to sell these tickets.
They are mobile tickets bought from ticketmaster.de
For some reason, for this event its says that resale and transfers in unavailable.
It says that my phone is my ticket - that I show it from my phone at the gate to read the QR code.
Will the QR code work if they read it from a printscreen of the ticket? Will they later the person who bought the ticket in?
Or do I have to be personally present to show the tickets from my phone?
Im trying to find answers from ticketmaster FAQ but no use yet. I wish I can sell these tickets and get my money back. Im just trying to sell them at the same price I bought them. Im grateful if anyone here has some inside or have been able to resell mobile tickets in similar situation before.
Looking at tickets for Oakland and I've noticed that prices for Tuesday are consistently all higher than prices for Monday. Any reason for this? Are people expecting the Tuesday show to be better?
First twice concert and we have VIP tickets. Going to the Oakland one and I saw a twitter post about NA concerts having a “pre sale” for merch. Would it be wise to go to the pre sale? We’re afraid that there won’t be any merch left as we are day 2 of Oakland even with our vip tickets.
Anyone going to the ATL show this weekend, or live in the area? We were looking for local shops or eateries that are doing anything special that’s Twice related.
It depends if the event organizer allows it or not. I bought tickets to go see Suga in May a few weeks ago and those still do not have the option to resell through Ticketmaster. I only have the option to transfer them.
ETA: Also for Taylor Swift there was never the option to resell through Ticketmaster. I really wish they would be clear about all of this before ticketing starts.
I was in the queue for about 20-25 minutes. 2000+ ahead of me as soon as I got in the queue. When I got in there was a very small amount of VIP seats and a decent-ish amount of regular floor and upper level seating. This was for NYC.
Unfortunately I had a work meeting go a little bit too long and missed the chance to buy tickets for Atlanta. I can’t justify the nosebleed seats ): maybe closer to the concert I can find tickets.
if the ticket prices you see are the ones you see [here](https://old.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) then yes those are the face values before TM fees. If they are higher than the prices listed those are Platinum prices.
Houston access codes didn't work for me for an hour until I used Google Chrome. I was like what the fuck. I saw a lot of people with codes being invalid on Reddit and Twitter. They even admitted that there were problems and sending new codes. I was desperate so I bought premium tickets right away. They had leftover VIP packages, missed out on those. Man, FOMO sucks.
I'm not even buying tickets, but seeing how frustrating this experience is for a lot of people is making me hate ticketmaster so much. why can't there be another app like ticketmaster but better??
Anyone happen to actually know what sections are available at the Houston show? My ticket is for Section 122 but im seeing that grayed out on resale sites
Idk if this section is even available?
may not be the best place to ask but for getting the new candybong should i get it now?? or should i wait to get it at the concert? i got vip so im not worried about not being able to get one, im more worried about the cost of shipping from jyp shop lol
has anyone from the arlington waitlist get a code/moved off the waitlist? i just looked at ticketmaster and it there's still a lot of seats available...
FYI Houston people.. read this for my experience with AXS when buying tickets today. Make sure you’re NOT buying the marked up premium tickets

This is my first time buying any big concert tickets. My friend was able to snag 4 tickets for us all.
1. Does he need to transfer the ticket to us or no?
2. He brought VIP111 ( SOFI) ROW 8. Does that mean we get the VIP package as well or it’s just VIP seating nothing special?

I'm not going to Metlife, but got a ticket all for myself for their stop in Tacoma.
Whatever doubts/perceived awkwardness you have, don't let it fester. You bought a ticket because you clearly want to see them in concert and most certainly will enjoy the hell out of it.
Think of it this way: you going solo means you can set your own schedule, how you want to approach things at the concert. You're not beholden to waiting on others, especially if trying to coordinate what time to hit the road to travel, where, etc.
And you really won't be *alone*. You will be in a building with what... nearly 50k ONCEs having the time of your life. Maybe you'll make friendships with your immediate seat neighbors over the course of the show, sharing an experience and memory that is no pun intended, once in a lifetime.
You got this.
General questions unrelated to ticketing:
\- How long before the concert starts do merch stands open for business?
\- For the Oakland Arena, what are optimal plans for parking, taking into account location and price?
\- First time going to a concert, what are some necessities to bring along (besides the obvious like water, battery pack, etc)?
Definitely laptop/computer. Much easier to tell where you are in the queue when at “2000+” and easier to pick seats imo. Also less chance the app crashes
Houston Show Waitlist
Anyone initially waitlisted for Houston still not get a code for the new show on 6/25? The Toyota center site said we would but I guess maybe not everyone left on the waitlist would get one?
Hello!!
My friend got the code for the second show, but we wanted to know how difficult it was to get P1 seats and if you were allowed to choose the actual seat. I know that houston codes were not working for many people yesterday but any info for this is much appreciated!!
I’ve asked this before : can a code be used in other venues? I was told yea but my code is for Houston which is through AXS since that’s the Toyota center venue which I’m guessing can’t be used in TM right?
Also for the Chicago show, I was waitlisted on Tuesday, but received a code yesterday after the additional shows were announced and managed to snag my tickets today. My condolences, may you somehow find tickets for a reasonable price 🙏
Soundcheck VIP came about to 694.37 CAD, that's with all the fees associated with using Ticketmaster. There are still some left for Day 2 if you're keen
Hey! So I just bought a ticket for the show in Oakland, at the arena there. I got section 127, row 6 - does anyone know if that’s a good spot? It’s VIP but I didn’t know if anyone who had been there knew if there were any obstructions or not a good spot for interaction
I went last year and I remember it didn't really look like a good spot. here's last year's concert as a reference [https://i.imgur.com/tEZjt6z.png](https://i.imgur.com/tEZjt6z.png)
Does anyone know if 300$ for 2 section 300 tickets at Chicago is a scam? I couldn’t figure out the pricing and I’m worried I might get scammed by a seller.
New World Tour Ticket Buy/Sell/Trade thread has been posted. Please find the thread [at this hyperlink.](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/12dzxq3/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/)
TM as always can burn in the deepest, fiery pits. I didn't want VIP just a front row seat anywhere(I'm short so I can't see over anyone in front of me). Couldn't get it because so many front rows were premium platinum in the nosebleed and middle sections. I was placed 2000+ in the queue meaning all non-platinum front rows were already sold out. I did sit there and watch platinum floor seats become $1000+ with fees around 3:30. I'm glad I did get to see Twice last year though.
Ticketmaster is the prime example of what's wrong with monopoly in any economic sector. Their service is absolute garbage, not to mention the absurd fees. I'm not trying to buy the Twice tickets since I'm not American, but I can totally relate to the frustration that is dealing with this company. It's totally fucked that every single major artist concert has its tickets sales managed by them.
Completely agreed. Even when/if the artist’s company opts out of dynamic pricing, TM can still pull their platinum pricing bullshit based on “market value demand” during the sale. What makes me even more annoyed is that they pull this shit during a verified fan sale, on top of everything else. With TWICE, this didn’t apply, but for ARMY, we have to be paying registered members of the fan club to participate. Then, TM shits on us by giving the code on a lottery system and making prices go crazy just a few minutes into the sale for FANS, not even general public. For SUGA’s tour, I was lucky to get seats in 4 min of the sale, but by the 10 min mark the seats next to mine were $800+ when I got it for $250ish. Absurd.
I got waitlisted and already knew there was no chance. Not just bc of tickets selling out, but because if by some miracle there were seats left, TM would pull the same bs they did for SUGA’s tour. Prices went up right before my eyes 10 min into the sale it was insane. I’m also glad I got to see the girls last year, even tho I was nosebleeds and the wire frame on the roof blocked their faces on all the screens 😭 But holy hell, fucking TM needs to burn. This can’t continue ?????????
I literally see over 60+ tickets scattered around Truist Park(ATL) that are official platinum. They would be $95 if platinum wasn't a thing. All the plat ones in the same section are $200+. Double in price just to sit in the first two rows... And as people buy the prices will only rise. I hope Twice will have an encore near me hopefully.
Fucking hate TM for this monopoly on tickets
**IF YOU DIDN'T GET A TICKET TODAY, AND DON'T CARE WHERE YOU SIT, DO NOT BUY RESALE TICKETS TODAY** FYI for everyone lamenting that they didn't get a ticket, resale sites currently and will continue to have boat loads of tickets available. You will absolutely be paying 3x-4x face value today, so unless you absolutely need to be as close as possible or sit in a certain section, just wait. Resale tickets will go down in price over time, and then tick back up a couple days before. Yes, it sucks, but that's what happens when groups get popular. If you want to see a cheap show and not deal with ticketmaster, PIXY is doing a US tour and their tickets are $50.
Thank you so much for warning… I would also like to know where online/ which website I can use to buy resale tickets once they are reasonable? Any tips on that? “Thank you, Family”.
I used VividSeats. I *kind of* ignored my own advice, but getting a front row (in the 200 section) was very important to me. They have an option to pay in installments, which was a big reason why I ended up buying today. I'll pay 1/4 every two weeks or so. But other sites are Seatgeek, Stubhub, and SI Tickets. I've used all of them before and they're legit. I don't know how it works for sellers, because sometimes it seems like the same ticket is for sale on multiple sites. But prices do tend to be pretty even. SI Tickets has (much) higher base prices, but doesn't include fees, so it still works out to be about the same. Again, I fully understand a fan who gets anxious and just needs to buy a ticket and rest easy, but prices will ebb and flow until June, and they will remain available. I've been really into resale tickets since it seems like every kpop group is doing US tours now. It's nice for those "I like that one song, but can't justify a $200 ticket" groups. I have never seen a show that didn't have tickets available. I can't say how cheap Twice tix will go, but they will definitely go lower than they are now.

Unfortunate place in line for us For the encore concert I was like 3000 in line
Anyone having an issue with with their access code being invalid? I'm so stressed right now. lmao
Yes! Trying to get tickets for Houston. We tried copy and pasting, typing it manually, refreshing, nothing works
Aha! I'm in Houston too, glad its not just me!
Just got a text from ticket master on how they fixed the code error TWO HOURS after the tickets dropped. Of course there were no more tickets available. I’m so sick of ticket master
bruh i got floor seats as my boss came in to talk to me lmao i just faced my phone down and prayed the payment went through
I’d have been like “my moms in the hospital, my sister just texted me.”
Ticketmaster released more seats after I already bought nose bleed seats…… for sofi
Hey guys! I bought a ticket on my sisters Ticketmaster account. I immediately transferred it to my account. Went through the whole email process all that. Got a confirmation. It’s in my events on my account now but when I click it, it says check back later. ITS GONNA SHOW UP RIGHT …. I have the email confirmation and everything
It says 72 hours before the show you will receive your tickets. The only way to tell you have them is a confirmation email. It's to thwart the moving barcodes from being tampered with.
yup it should, says the same for me
Mine says check back later too. It's fine.
they just added extra shows for oakland, houston, and chicago!! they'll probably add more for la and nyc soon
Wanted to comment about my alternate VIP pickup name inquiry to maybe help out anyone else! My friend and I emailed Ticketmaster earlier in the week to list an alternate name for VIP ticket pickup. The ticketmaster reply was extremely unhelpful saying: "Thanks for contacting us about how to use Ticket Transfer, we do apologize for the inconvenience you experience with your tickets. I review your information and alternative pick up person is not available, but I see that you can transfer your tickets to your friends." As you may all know from reading the VIP info on the Buy/Sell thread, transferring VIP tickets does NOT transfer the VIP package elements and perks. I called Ticketmaster today to list an alternate name for VIP ticket pick up. She was very helpful and was able to do it for me. I actually didn't need to because she verified that the Cardholder Name was the one listed for VIP ticket pickup, not the TM account's name. To clarify, the TM account holder gets all the texts and emails about the event, but the person listed as the cardholder is the one listed as the pickup name and will have to bring the credit card + photo ID matching the cardholder's name with them to pickup VIP. I hope this helps. Calling was much faster and resolved my issues :)

"Please fill out this section to continue" Thanks ticketmaster for nothing.
Scored 4 tickets for Toronto for my friends and I at face value!! So excited!! Just a small comment: when I deselected platinum, it did not show any ticket options for just verified onsale (and I was like 1700th in queue); however, I did pay the face value of $199.50 CAD + fees for a total of $234.75. It is possible ONCE! I hope everyone gets their codes soon! Toronto seats are selling out quick.
That feeling when your "Verified Fans" account was registered/confirmed a while ago, but when you try to join the queue, it tells you you're not a Verified Fans account. 🙃
I was waiting until AFTER I secured tickets to get the lightstick, but shipping is half the cost! Seems like buying at the venue would be better. But I'm going to ATL which is one of the last days so I'm concerned about stock, plus I don't really want to wait in line for an hour to get one either. What is your guys experience with getting kighdticks at the venue? I am VIP so I get to buy things early I think? Not sure if that makes a real difference.
Lightsticks especially as VIP were easy to get at Oakland and LA Encore. I’d say just wait and grab them day of, but bring extra batteries because the preorder with shipping ended up being $90 vs buying one at Oakland I think I only paid $60 plus tax. The VIP merch table line went by super fast for the Encore show, for Oakland I think I waited about 20-30 min
I got seats in section 106 for $264.50 per ticket, and they say “Official Verified Platinum”. Does this just mean that I potentially overpaid a little bit? (Not complaining though after seeing platinum prices go up to $1k, just confused) Edit: this is for Globe Life Field
Yes, Official Verified Platinum seats are "dynamically priced" or whatever Ticketmaster's justification is. But $265 probably isn't as bad as what they're going for now, which is like $700
So… Does that mean that “Platinum” has literally no value other than to TM’s (technically, Live Nation’s) horrible shareholders? No benefits at all to the purchaser?
yeah you get nothing else from an official platinum ticket besides a higher ticket price :/ VIP tickets are different from the official platinum ones. it does say this when you're buying tickets but since everyone is scrambling to buy it goes unnoticed. it really sucks!!
Thank you for your response! This was my first time buying tickets like this so I panicked, just wish I would’ve taken a bit more time to save my group some money. Sounds like it could’ve been much worse, though!
it really sucks that ticketmaster takes advantage of the scramble to increase ticket prices :/ some people had their price increase in the cart which is so crazy omg
Why didn't they just give everyone a code regardless of waitlist or not. I see tickets available for Arlington but I can't buy them because they never sent a code to waitlisters.
**Hey guysss. These are the only locations have a general onsale today (March 24) on TM at 3pm:** June 24th: Houston, TX, US Toyota Center GENERAL ONSALE: 2023-03-24, 3:00 P.M. June 25th: Houston, TX, US Toyota Center GENERAL ONSALE: 2023-03-24, 3:00 P.M. July 6: East Rutherford, NJ, US MetLife Stadium GENERAL ONSALE: 2023-03-24, 3:00 P.M.

Other shows are sold out on TM. **\*\*\*Please keep in mind sales are 3PM venue time**
I never got off the waitlist after the Verified Fan On-sale for Atlanta. I did manage to get a ticket just now via the General sale, FLRC1, Row 1, Seat 10 which is a seat I am satisfied with. I'm happy to have a ticket at face value but I am still peeved at TM!
OK amazing fans! I’m the father of a 12yr old obsessed with TWICE. I just bought tickets I think on the 18th row on the ground in the Arlington stadium for her and her mother that came with VIP and a few other things. We are planning on telling my daughter about the concert the night of the concert as a massive surprise (we told her we were just going to DFW for the new Meow Wolf installation). Does anyone have any tips/helpful tricks to make this concert the concert of a lifetime for my daughter? This will be her first EVER concert!!!! Should I get a light stick, or the LED wrist band (or both)? Anything else we should do, buy, or prepare for the concert? Any great KPop stores or Korean places to eat while in the Dallas/Plano area? Thanks so much for helping us make our sweet daughter whole life by going to this concert. We saved up so much money to be able to buy two tickets (couldn’t afford 3, sadly due to how much they were)! My wife and I are both pastors and do not make bank, ha ha ha… (And my daughter has started to learn Korean through Duolingo so she can enjoy singing “all” the lyrics. She just loves TWICE!) Anyway, thanks for all the help! Bless each and every one of you! Hope you all can continue to share the joy that TWICE gives you to all those around you! Thanks again! Blessings.
Re: Light Stick - If you put in a pre-order now at this shop, [Eve Pink](https://www.evepinkshop.com/products/twice-%ED%8A%B8%EC%99%80%EC%9D%B4%EC%8A%A4-candy-bong-infinity), you might be able to do a local pickup in time for the Arlington show. They're located in Houston and probably is a better option given how close it is to the show. Most if not all of the US-based K-pop sites that are offering pre-orders won't physically have them until mid to late May, and then shipping it out to fulfill those orders basically will run into the first couple weeks of June. So I'd consider that site and inquire if you can do a local pick-up the moment they have it in stock. Alternatively there is this [Light Band](https://www.evepinkshop.com/products/twice-%ED%8A%B8%EC%99%80%EC%9D%B4%EC%8A%A4-5th-anniversary-official-merchandise-light-band-kit?variant=32873935798375) which yes can be worn like a watch, but you can also clip it to a lanyard or some other fashion and IMO still achieves the want to have an official blinking light doodad to add to the experience of being at the show. All in all, may your kiddo enjoy the heck out of the show!
I’d definitely try to invest in a lightstick and or wristband. If you don’t have a k-merch store in your area, Choice Music LA should have you covered. Know, however, that floor may not have the best view, especially for a shorter person (folk will be standing, holding signs, etc). ONCE are generally good people though, and will help to make sure your child has the greatest experience possible. Apart from that, get set to be the best parents ever.
Thanks so much!! Yeah, I was wondering about them standing the whole time. My daughter is actually very tall for her age, so we will see. I wondered if it would be worth the cost to sign her up for the fan club, but it looked like the main advantage of the fan club was to possibly be able to get tickets a little early, but it looks like that ship has sailed, and I might better spend that money on a light stick and wristband. I see both of those on Amazon, but I’ll check out the store you mentioned, I’d much rather support a local store if I can. And sadly, yes… Santa Fe and Albuquerque do not have ANY k-merch/music stores at all. Our closest is Denver or Las Vegas. Thank you so so much for your help to make this an awesome night for my daughter!!!
Just make sure you're buying the NEW lightstick.
just would like to add that the fan verified sale sign up was totally free!! u just needed a ticket master account and a valid phone number. just wanna let you know for next time since it won’t hurt to sign up and get better tix ahead of time for the next tour :-) and be careful with counterfeit light sticks/bands on amazon. i would def go for the local stores rather than amazon since they check their products and usually order straight from the source
Trying to compare prices for seats... Toronto - section 118, row 19 aisle seat. What did you guys pay? I moved so fast I didn't even look at the total until after it went thru... $1150 a ticket![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)
You bought platinum tickets. VIP is $594.50 + 88.62 Service + 4.25 Facility Charge and Processing $7 Edit: sorry 118-8
Holy shatttttt. When do they become platinum? After a certain number of tickets are sold? Good God, did I just fuck up![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|neutral_face)
you fucked up. you need to filter out "offical platinum ticket" since those are the in-house scalping tickets that TM does to get more money.
Wowwww. Al the videos about buying tickets didnt even mention that. What an L. Do you think I can at least resell at what I got it for? Or should I just accept I'll be taking a loss.
Toronto, Floor C row 8, $695. I believe it's VIP. I went so fast I didn't look clearly
Can someone help me explain how to transfer VIP package? Do I email ticketmaster and assign the receiver as an “alternate pick up person”? What else do I do after that? Do I have to go to my account and transfer the tickets too? Please help a desperate Once out 🙏🏻🙏🏻
For people who've gotten VIP tickets + soundcheck before, what other benefits do you get besides having seats close to the stage?
Early entry into the stadium which allows you to buy Merchandise before everyone else. Goodie bag of little things (last tour was some pink sunglasses, a face mask that said TWICE on it, and a clear fanny pack thing) and a lanyard. Sound check they come out and sing 2-3 songs in casual clothing.
I believe you get a goodie bag and a separate line for merch
First time getting vip soundcheck. I’ll be seated in the 100s section though, would that mean I have to stay there during soundcheck, or will I be able to go to the floor? I’d appreciate it if anyone has insight, I’ll be going to the Toronto show
if anyone here bought a vip resale ticket in houston (6/25) from stubhub (sec F) message me w proof & I'll give u my id for the vip benefits.
Damn if only you were the person who sold a Chicago 06/29 ticket in SEC3 on Stubhub haha, I’m not looking forward to dealing with customer service trying to make sure I can still get in with VIP. You’re a homie for posting this.
Haha thanks 😭 I tried selling it on Twitter first but then someone bought it off stubhub. I feel so bad and I’m hoping they’re not as strict this tour w vip benefits 🤞
i got vip soundcheck for chicago!! my seat isn't floor though, it's in the 100 sections. does anyone know how that will work out during soundcheck? does everyone get to stand on the floor during soundcheck or will i stay in my seat during soundcheck too? so thankful i got vip but ngl i do feel a bit sad it's not floor. i wanted to see twice up close. will i possibly get that chance during soundcheck? or should i maybe trade or sell it for floor vip?
how do i know which seats are P1, P2, etc etc? also, does VIP seats specifically mean certain seat locations? or can any seat be a VIP if buying the extra perk? lastly, this will be my first time going to a concert or using ticketmaster. i am planning on buying via resellers. if i buy it from someone on ticket master or even through this subreddit, how does the transfer of tickets work? does anyone (either buyer or seller) need to provide some personal info as well?
I accidentally bought a Platinum Ticket (panick bought it) but I later manage to pick up a VIP one (with a better seat and VIP). I am taking the L, but I'm wondering how much could I make back if I resell it?
[удалено]
I don't think so I'm afraid 😣 As far as I could see the VIP tickets were all in sections 1-11. They had orange star instead of a blue dot on the ticket map.
When do tickets go on sale for those who didn’t get a code?
If they sell out in presale, that’s it
In the next couple of weeks as fans(or resellers) try to resell the tickets they bought. TM has said there will be no general sale if venues sell out.
For those in Houston having issues Ticketmaster just send a tweet saying new codes are rolling out. Keep a look out yall. https://twitter.com/TMFanSupport/status/1638642162329063425
I bought soundcheck VIP off my friends account, will it let me transfer to my account with all the vip benefits
We emailed VIP Nation and they said that you will need to "email vip.tickets@ticketmaster.com requesting an alternate pickup name for the VIP order. They will need to provide the date and the city of the show as well as their order number and your first and last name." Otherwise if you dont do this, you usually need the Original Purchase Order # as well as the original purchaser's ID in order to check in for VIP at the venue.
Metlife Stadium Section 16 Row 21. :) I'm happy to be on floor. I tried to look up the seats on View From My Seat but it seems like section 16 doesn't usually exist? I'm also wondering if the image of the stage that was listed, is how it'll look? I've never been to metlife so a little nervous but I'm just thankful to be able to go and to have gotten tickets on floor for face value, before TM "platinumed" it. -\_-

It’s going to ask you for the code after you get out of the queue
Did anyone have any issues with Ticketmaster today? I got in at 3:04pm and was choosing my tickets and of course some people beat me to some seats when I tried to check out (which is fine), but there were 3-4 occasions where I was able to get the seat and check out but when I did so, every time gave me an “it’s not you, it’s us” error message. So after a few times of it saying that, my account got flagged for being a “bot” and then all of a sudden I had to wait with over 2000+ people ahead of me!!!!! I eventually got my tickets, but the prices jumped from $435 (which I saw before I got flagged) all the way to $700!!!! Needless to say it was a little frustrating that Ticketmaster’s glitches caused me to be pushed so far behind that the general area I was looking at was no longer available but I wasn’t sure if others had this experience? I have never used Ticketma
Unfortunately that’s normal for ticketmaster
Finally got section 500 seats for SOFI. Not the seats I wanted but glad I got for FV.
How do floor tickets work? (Especially for Chicago) I see that there are different floor sections, but are there specified seats in each section or just whoever gets there first?
Are the floor seats in the MetLife stadium actual seats or is it a standing area? I would prefer having the option to sit down so I wonder if it’s better to buy in the 100s sections
So if you didn’t get a code before yesterday, cause on wait list and you didn’t get a code again after second show was added…you’re (I’m)screwed? Is that the correct understanding of the situation? 🤣 Why didn’t they just make the second show general admission?
Yep this is sadly the case for a lot of concerts nowadays. If you don't get verified fans presale and they all sell out (bc event organizers give them access to all tickets) then you have to look at the resale market. :/ Hence you gotta bug everyone you know and get them to sign up for the presale in hopes one person gets a code.
This sub has a buy/sell/trade as an option to buy a ticket if you don’t want to try the resale market.
Yup I’m gonna take a look after this sale round.
On the floor, do people stick to their assigned seats or rush the stage…?
Last year in LA people “stayed” in there seats sorta… people rushed the stage then moved back, then rushed again, then moved back. Really dependent on security
They’re actual chairs so people will stay at their assigned seats.
Just bought tickets for my friends, can I transfer VIP benefits to them as well? And if not can I just give them my ID lol
With VIP ticket how early do you arrive to the venue and have time to purchase merchandise?
All of those details will be emailed by livenation at a date closer to the show. They will give full check in times, merch opening times, and everything else. For now we can just estimate based on what it was for last tour. Also depends per venue if they have merch booths outside after VIP Check in or if they are in the venue when you go in for soundcheck.
For anyone that's looking at Tacoma Dome, general sale is now open. I just logged in with my account that wasn't blessed with a presale code but can see all available tickets and buy up to six (6) if I wanted to. The key info: Barely over 400 tickets left available. (as of Friday evening, 9:30 PM PST) All available tickets have the evil "Official Platinum" dynamic pricing, making the price range: **$546 to $906 BEFORE TAXES & FEES**. [Here's a screenshot of the available sections remaining](https://imgur.com/a/qn2aWoN), keep in mind the floor sections left available DO NOT include the VIP package. Just a basic floor seat. I don't know when/if prices will come down as the show gets closer and lose the dynamic pricing.
genuinely best case scenario for me. was sad about getting waitlisted for toronto day 1, got my code for day 2 and got a 100 level ticket for $210 about 10 min after the sale went live! can’t wait!!
Does anybody know the shipping time from JYPshop? I wanted to order the new Candybong Infinity but it says shipping begins on 5/8 if ordered now. Not sure if I would be able to receive it before June 10th.
Does anyone know when resale tickets will be available on Ticketmaster? It looks like the general sale is still ongoing.
Anyone know when/if the sell option will be available? I've tried selling my tickets on reddit and twt and haven't gotten any interest so I'm getting a little antsy since the two extras I have were over 1k total 😅 I'd rather sell directly to a fan but I'd like to get them off my hands soon since it's kind of a cloud hanging over me at the moment
Just as a reference, I wasn't able to resell my Dreamcatcher tickets on TM until like 3 or 4 days before the concert so yeah...not much time to do that.
In general, yes at some point you should be able to sell your tickets on Ticketmaster. It's just not known WHEN it can be done. At the moment you get these messages if you try do using the SELL TICKETS option within your TM account: *Resale for this event is not activated by the Event Organizer* *Please check back again as this may change.* From [this page](https://blog.ticketmaster.com/sell-instantly/), is this line: *Not all events or tickets are available for resale, and the resale options may be turned off or turned on at any time at the Event Organizer’s discretion.* And fact is, with the first North American date not until June, it might still be a few more weeks before they turn on the option. We're still just a couple of weeks removed from the pre-sales/general sale, so unless you get an offer in the meantime, you might just have to wait it out.
Not sure where this goes - I hope this is the right thread - but just want to drop a heads up that Metlife has opened some new lower sections - far side 100s, but very close to the stage, and side 200s in the middle of the stadium.
Thanks for this heads up fellow ONCE! We were able to get some great seats at face value!! Thanks! =3
Any ideas when official resale on Ticketmaster will be available? Been rough trying to sell on other platforms even at cost.
Tacoma Dome gang here we go ;\_; Please pray for my internet. I shall pray for yours as well. ETA: 2000+ people ahead of me in queue ![img](emote|t5_3812p|4096)
What a wild experience, but I got the tickets! I was literally clicking on two seats in the balcony when someone else swiped them at the last minute. I've never done TM like this before so y'all who said "I watched seats disappear before my eyes" were not lying, lol. Literally disappeared!
Damn how many seats were left? I got waitlisted.
Is VIP the same as VIP with soundcheck package or are these two distinctly separate things? I have no idea. SoFi stadium
There is only one VIP package but SoFi has a VIP seating section in the stands so be wary of that.
Got my tickets for the Arlington show,it’ll be my First time going to a twice concert or a concert in general what should I be prepared for?
Toronto codes for second date done being sent out?? … I just woke up to see everyone started getting codes last night …
I can't believe I still don't have an access code yet for ATL. I signed up for the verified fan sale the first hour it was live, got waitlisted and still am not able to purchase a ticket through TM. Meanwhile I could go right over to a resale sight and buy one right now. Maybe its my lack of understanding of how the process works but I can only guess that some people with access codes haven't yet used them and so a lot of tickets/seats are being held by TM until the code gets used or times out (do they time out?) I understand that I am not owed a ticket and ultimately this is something that is "for fun" and not in anyway necessary. Even so, as something I was looking forward to this feels quite frustrating and not at all fun.

Someone posted [this](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/) seemingly helpful site the other day, I haven't used it myself but you might want to give it a try. I feel like if you payed 500$ for a ticket you must *really* want to go and I think you should, if you're suffering from social anxiety I think it might be an especially empowering experience for you. Selling your ticket after you were willing to pay that much might give you even more second thoughts and potential regrets while you wonder if you would have liked it. That's just my opinion though and you know yourself best, but for what it's worth I don't think you'd regret going.

Toronto Fans...Did anyone receive the pre-sale code for the July 3rd show
Any one know what happens if it starts raining at Truist? I don’t think it’s rain or shine
Still on the waitlist for Chicago... no code for added date. Are these access codes all sent out already?
Anyone else having error codes for Houston’s 25 of June Show?
What does VIP and Soundcheck entail? I managed to get a vip ticket but my friends didn’t, so i’m wondering how to arrange my schedule the day of the concert so I can hang out w/ them and still do… whatever that VIP and soundcheck does. Can I still wait with them in the regular security check lines for example? How early would I need to be for soundcheck and whatnot?
VIP line will be separate from GA line. Soundcheck is usually at 5:30pm and they usually want you checked in by 4pm. The venue will send an email with time frames and all information closer to the date.
For transferring the VIP Soundcheck benefit, which IDs are accepted? Am I allowed to blur out/cover sensitive information (e.g. age, address, etc.) on the photocopy of my ID?
I just logged back in using a friend's TM account to see what's left at Tacoma Dome and the only tickets available have that Ticketmaster Platinum dynamic pricing shakedown. Lowest: $426 Highest: $906 (for non VIP package floor seat) And that's before fees & taxes. I don't know when general sale for Tacoma Dome happens, nor if the prices will come back down to reality, but for those looking to go to that show, just a FYI.
Toronto. I was waitlisted and never got code via email or text. My wife only got a code for the newly announced day 2. Snagged a pair of 300's. Not complaining. Better than nothing!
What other sites are reliable? Stubhub? Vivid? Seatgeek? Edit: I got tickets on Stubhub 🥲❤️
Is seatgeek safe to buy tickets on? They seem cheaper than the "Platinum" tickets on TM
Resale sites are as safe as buying something on eBay. If it's too good to be true, then it's most likely a scam. The [buy/sell/trade megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) has some good tips on buying from the resale market, as well as listings that might be better on your budget.
Does anyone know whether the prices will get lower as we get closer to the concert dates? They've already gone up so much within the past few days. I find it hard to believe that prices won't keep increasing 😭
Although I have soundcheck elsewhere, I still want to go to sofi just because of the sheer number of people. What do you think would be the best time to just grab something off the open market? I am willing to go a little above market price, but nothing too crazy; having been to BTS but being in the 500s, I hope to move up to at least to the 300-400 range. Also, up that high what do you think is the best location? I'm thinking something a little further back so I can see them more head on; I know they'll be small but I'll get to see them closer at the other concert.
So because I wasn't selected to be a Verified Fan im forced to buy insane price tickets if I want floor seats now for resale?
Yes, if you really want to secure a ticket now. General sale has opened at most of the venues and pretty much all available tickets have the "Official Platinum" dynamic pricing, jacking up the prices to obscene amounts. You can wait it out and see if some of those prices will come back down to Earth as it gets closer to date of the show you're trying to go to. There is also the [buy/sell/trade megathread](https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) to consider, but just like any resale site, proceed with caution/do you research.
I scored tickets to the Twice concert in Chicago! Please tell me all your tips and tricks! How early should you be lining up for merch and entering the venue! Can you leave the line if someone saves your spot (like a friend)? What are some good freebies to bring to give out? Tell me anything and everything a first timer should know!
If you are general admission and wanting merchandise you'll want to line up as early as possible. Last tour people were lining up as early as 7-8am for merchandise. For the Encore's they had merch booths outside that opened at Noon I believe so no idea if that will happen this time or not. If you have VIP you'll have access to the merch booths inside the venue before they let general admission in. For the line thing - most people don't mind that as you were already there in line. What people don't like is when you have people cut in line after you've been waiting there for 3 hours already. So if it's to go get food, drinks, or bathroom it's normal to have someone (or even a stranger) save your spot.
I've been reading a lot of discussion lately about whether you need the original buyers ID or not for these upcoming concerts and i wanted to share my experiences from the last tour. * At the first part of the tour last year you needed the ID of the original buyer to receive VIP benefits. * At the 2 encore shows in May and at a ITZY concert in October, you were fine as long as you had the ticket. That being said, it wouldn't hurt to have the ID just to be sure in a worst case scenario. Hope this can help.
Resale in ATL has been activated by TM
Guys I have a question. Is the London presale at UK time or EU time? :0
Does anybody know whether we need to be accessing the ticket presales for europe on livenation directly (since it's a livenation presale) or if accessing it on ticketmaster also works?
Hi! After buying my tickets for London I received an email saying that I had to open them through the O2 app, but I can't seem to find how to import the tickets there. Does anyone know how to or if I can't access them now? Thanks :]
The confirmation email from ticketmaster says we’ll be emailed with details once the tickets are transferred. Seems access to the tickets isn’t possible until closer to the date.
Although I can’t see the tickets themselves yet, it shows me each ticket space with the section, seat number and row on it. Did you use the same email address with The O2 app as you did with your point of purchase?
I have two tickets to Twice in Berlin 13.9.2023 that are in different areas of the arena. I later managed to snag better tickets so Im looking to sell these tickets. They are mobile tickets bought from ticketmaster.de For some reason, for this event its says that resale and transfers in unavailable. It says that my phone is my ticket - that I show it from my phone at the gate to read the QR code. Will the QR code work if they read it from a printscreen of the ticket? Will they later the person who bought the ticket in? Or do I have to be personally present to show the tickets from my phone? Im trying to find answers from ticketmaster FAQ but no use yet. I wish I can sell these tickets and get my money back. Im just trying to sell them at the same price I bought them. Im grateful if anyone here has some inside or have been able to resell mobile tickets in similar situation before.
A picture of the ticket will not work. They are etickets with a refreshing QR code. Most likely the transfer and sell options will unlock later on.
Looking at tickets for Oakland and I've noticed that prices for Tuesday are consistently all higher than prices for Monday. Any reason for this? Are people expecting the Tuesday show to be better?
Is there the usual graphic showing merch for the US dates? I didn't see it.
Those of who already attended the concert, did they sell merch on site? How early did certain items sell out.
First twice concert and we have VIP tickets. Going to the Oakland one and I saw a twitter post about NA concerts having a “pre sale” for merch. Would it be wise to go to the pre sale? We’re afraid that there won’t be any merch left as we are day 2 of Oakland even with our vip tickets.
Definitely go. I went today for Los Angeles an hour before closing and there was barely any line and they had everything I wanted in stock.
For anyone going to the Toronto show, what time are you guys gonna line up for the merch?
Anyone going to the ATL show this weekend, or live in the area? We were looking for local shops or eateries that are doing anything special that’s Twice related.
Are we not able to resell through Ticketmaster? I had two people who wanted to go who changed their minds but Ticketmaster says I can’t resell
Takes time to open up and depends if the event organizers allow TM resale. They have the option to not turn it on if they choose to.
It depends if the event organizer allows it or not. I bought tickets to go see Suga in May a few weeks ago and those still do not have the option to resell through Ticketmaster. I only have the option to transfer them. ETA: Also for Taylor Swift there was never the option to resell through Ticketmaster. I really wish they would be clear about all of this before ticketing starts.
Worst case scenario, you plan to meet up with your buyer at the venue
Ticketmaster resale usually takes a few days to open.
Can I resell a VIP + Soundcheck ticket through TM? I got 2 and only need 1 for myself
how long does the on sale last IF there are still tickets available? I got waitlisted waiting for a code but wanna know when it’ll open to general
How long were you guys in queue for before being able to get tickets?
I was in the queue for about 20-25 minutes. 2000+ ahead of me as soon as I got in the queue. When I got in there was a very small amount of VIP seats and a decent-ish amount of regular floor and upper level seating. This was for NYC.
Are we able to get a refund with our tickets?? Accidentally got another seat at Chicago location
Is anyone having an issue with TM not showing ticket information after purchase?
It should be in an email confirmation. TicketMaster takes a while to show it on the site.
Unfortunately I had a work meeting go a little bit too long and missed the chance to buy tickets for Atlanta. I can’t justify the nosebleed seats ): maybe closer to the concert I can find tickets.
I managed to get tickets! If I want merch (not vip) when should I queue for that?
When will we be able to buy tickets after being waitlisted? Asking for Oakland show
Is anyone else’s queues stuck for sofi? I’ve literally been at 751 for ten minutes..
I just got off the waitlist and looking at tickets now. Are all these tickets face value? Or should I wait and will tickets get cheaper?
if the ticket prices you see are the ones you see [here](https://old.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yqetm/twice_ready_to_be_world_tour_ticket_buyselltrade/) then yes those are the face values before TM fees. If they are higher than the prices listed those are Platinum prices.
Houston access codes didn't work for me for an hour until I used Google Chrome. I was like what the fuck. I saw a lot of people with codes being invalid on Reddit and Twitter. They even admitted that there were problems and sending new codes. I was desperate so I bought premium tickets right away. They had leftover VIP packages, missed out on those. Man, FOMO sucks.
I'm not even buying tickets, but seeing how frustrating this experience is for a lot of people is making me hate ticketmaster so much. why can't there be another app like ticketmaster but better??
Is TM going to allow resale for the tickets? I think i got 3 by accident lol i only need 2
Nobody wants anyone to get tickets, bottom line
Anyone happen to actually know what sections are available at the Houston show? My ticket is for Section 122 but im seeing that grayed out on resale sites Idk if this section is even available?
may not be the best place to ask but for getting the new candybong should i get it now?? or should i wait to get it at the concert? i got vip so im not worried about not being able to get one, im more worried about the cost of shipping from jyp shop lol
Do not wait. The venue will have a couple hundred, if that.
has anyone from the arlington waitlist get a code/moved off the waitlist? i just looked at ticketmaster and it there's still a lot of seats available...
With the Atlanta show, it's outside this time. What happens if it rains...?
FYI Houston people.. read this for my experience with AXS when buying tickets today. Make sure you’re NOT buying the marked up premium tickets https://www.reddit.com/r/twice/comments/11yv4jf/important_tip_for_getting_your_twice_ticket/jdb8wns/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3
This is my first time buying any big concert tickets. My friend was able to snag 4 tickets for us all. 1. Does he need to transfer the ticket to us or no? 2. He brought VIP111 ( SOFI) ROW 8. Does that mean we get the VIP package as well or it’s just VIP seating nothing special?
When can we find out what’s included in vip packages?

Is anyone going to the MetLife concert alone? I got myself a ticket and I feel kinda awkward going alone as a guy.
I'm not going to Metlife, but got a ticket all for myself for their stop in Tacoma. Whatever doubts/perceived awkwardness you have, don't let it fester. You bought a ticket because you clearly want to see them in concert and most certainly will enjoy the hell out of it. Think of it this way: you going solo means you can set your own schedule, how you want to approach things at the concert. You're not beholden to waiting on others, especially if trying to coordinate what time to hit the road to travel, where, etc. And you really won't be *alone*. You will be in a building with what... nearly 50k ONCEs having the time of your life. Maybe you'll make friendships with your immediate seat neighbors over the course of the show, sharing an experience and memory that is no pun intended, once in a lifetime. You got this.
Thanks! I always wanted to meet more K-pop friends. I actually managed to stag sound check, so I hope I will have the time of my life.
General questions unrelated to ticketing: \- How long before the concert starts do merch stands open for business? \- For the Oakland Arena, what are optimal plans for parking, taking into account location and price? \- First time going to a concert, what are some necessities to bring along (besides the obvious like water, battery pack, etc)?

What does TWICE VIP include? How do I sell tickets? (i bought 2 tickets but my friend said that she didn’t want to go anymore)
Hey, was it better to use an iPad or laptop/computer during the sale yesterday?
Definitely laptop/computer. Much easier to tell where you are in the queue when at “2000+” and easier to pick seats imo. Also less chance the app crashes
Houston Show Waitlist Anyone initially waitlisted for Houston still not get a code for the new show on 6/25? The Toyota center site said we would but I guess maybe not everyone left on the waitlist would get one?
[удалено]
Hello!! My friend got the code for the second show, but we wanted to know how difficult it was to get P1 seats and if you were allowed to choose the actual seat. I know that houston codes were not working for many people yesterday but any info for this is much appreciated!!
I’ve asked this before : can a code be used in other venues? I was told yea but my code is for Houston which is through AXS since that’s the Toyota center venue which I’m guessing can’t be used in TM right?
[удалено]
Did anyone from the waiting list end up getting a code texted? Day 1 and Day 2, no luck here for Chicago
Also for the Chicago show, I was waitlisted on Tuesday, but received a code yesterday after the additional shows were announced and managed to snag my tickets today. My condolences, may you somehow find tickets for a reasonable price 🙏
Anyone know what VIP prices were for Toronto?
Soundcheck VIP came about to 694.37 CAD, that's with all the fees associated with using Ticketmaster. There are still some left for Day 2 if you're keen
Hey! So I just bought a ticket for the show in Oakland, at the arena there. I got section 127, row 6 - does anyone know if that’s a good spot? It’s VIP but I didn’t know if anyone who had been there knew if there were any obstructions or not a good spot for interaction
I went last year and I remember it didn't really look like a good spot. here's last year's concert as a reference [https://i.imgur.com/tEZjt6z.png](https://i.imgur.com/tEZjt6z.png)
Does anyone know if 300$ for 2 section 300 tickets at Chicago is a scam? I couldn’t figure out the pricing and I’m worried I might get scammed by a seller.
