weird because section O is "cat 1"... I've got 2 tickets, section O, row 10




At Bercy, each letter designates a door, which leads to several rows.

Now if you look closely on the seats map, you'll see that O section is for both cat 1 on the right and cat 2 on the left of the door. If you are in cat 2 and in O section, that means that you will be in cat 2 but in the part that is the closest to cat 1 and to the stage.

Another thing !!

At Bercy, rows are reversed. Row 1 is actually at the top of stairs, while the highest number will be at the bottom and closest to the stage. There are about 30 rows if i remember well.

I'm on row 15 and on the map it showed i was around the middle.

See you there guys !

You're welcome, indeed i'mgetting used to Bercy now.




Now to everyone, remember that in 2008 they added a show and they may well do the same this time, considering the succes they have in Paris...

I would actually be surprised if they didn't !!!

Hi charley!

Do you know which is the right gate to the parterre?

There will be a "Main Entrance/ General Admission sign" at the front of Bercy. It is actually the A Gate.

Lu'kaa 22-09-2011 09:23 PM

But this A gate is on the 'back side' of the building when you come from the subway, right?
Two friends of mine went to another gig in Bercy a few years ago and waited for 2 hours at the wrong door... ^^

If I remember well, the entrance to the standing area is on this side:

Only 80% sure though. But we have plenty of time to figure it out.

Jason-DeBord 22-09-2011 10:03 PM

I'm sooooo excited about these shows. The new album, foreign country (for me anyway :laugh3:) and I've never seen shows in venues this large before. Will definitely be a different kind of Coldplay experience (especially compared with Liverpool and Newcastle last year).

Jason

Lu'kaa 22-09-2011 11:11 PM

@markeane : that's what I thought too. :) At least it'll be quiet, near the park :D

charley 23-09-2011 08:56 AM

Jesus, it sold out so quickly today !!!

beebz 23-09-2011 08:56 AM

wow that´s insane! :shocked2: apperantly i will be attending the gig with freaking coldplayers .. that´s awesome !!! :happy:

Jason-DeBord 23-09-2011 09:06 AM

Wow. I feel lucky from yesterday even more so now...

Jason

charley 23-09-2011 09:13 AM

Yes a lot of people couldn't even get a standing ticket (which in 2008 was available for a few hours !!) even when online at 9am...

So really, thank you coldplay for the presale !!

Last chance for coldplayers, Fnac stores are selling them from 10am (15min ago) so they must have kept some spare tickets to make sure they will still have some to sell 1 hour later than the online booking.

tamunia 23-09-2011 09:36 AM

we all are super-hyper excited aren´t we ??? hope to see you there guys .. it will be my first proper Coldplay concert (festival doesn´t count, it´s different crowd and feelings there.. )
we do need to have some coldplayers´/coldplaying´ sign to recognize each other .. they are working on it in another thread hah :D

jcfromparis 23-09-2011 09:42 AM

I haven't been so lucky, I didn't get tickets yesterday and today (maybe my computer is too slow). I need 3 tickets for me, my kid and my wife. :cry:

FixYougirl 23-09-2011 09:46 AM

Sold out, i've read on Twitter. I hope, guys, you've got tickets. I bought them yesterday at 9 am.

charley 23-09-2011 09:56 AM

It's even worse for the O2 in London. It was sold out at 9.00 AM DEAD...

Something's wrong...

Do you think they sold most of the tickets during the presale ??

jcfromparis 23-09-2011 10:13 AM

Ticketnet was unavailable for me all the time.
And Fnac.com... I had the opportunity to choose 3 seated tickets at one time, and then I pressed the button it said sold out.:(

jcfromparis 23-09-2011 10:17 AM

Thanks Tamunia !

Try all the day, sometimes they add tickets during the day

Jahyan 23-09-2011 10:51 AM

I am disappointed. I did not get tickets.

I was there for VLV and wanted to be there for this one. I hope they will add a second show in Bercy.

Meanwhile, lots of tickets are already on ebay at expensive prices. I am really upset with that.
Is the solution create fake accounts and place fake bids ?

(I know, the anger is not the solution but...)

angedediamant 23-09-2011 10:56 AM

It was sold out for me too. And I was in front of my computer when it began ! They blocked me for 10 minutes because there were too many people !

I am so dissapointed.


Aux Français :

Si vous avez deux tickets pour Bercy en catégorie 1 ou 2, merci de m'envoyer un MP. Impossible d'en avoir car j'ai été mis en attente à cause de l'affluence.

Je n'achèterai pas à des prix exorbitants. Je ne cautionne pas ces pratiques.

EDIT : Got my tickets. That's a relief !

yes i did .. yesterday on presale!
first i though i didn´t and called myself looser and late in the evening i found out i was lucky enough .. i read u got it too and standing .. see u there , or not :D:confused:

i am really pissed that there´re tickets already availabe on ¨secondary market¨ which are freaking expensive. that´s so unfair to fans !!! coldplayers should have got these tickets instead of money-makers :angry:

charley 23-09-2011 11:13 AM

By the way I heard people may need advices once in Paris, I can help if you need me.

It's early but be aware that I know Paris quite well if you have any questions if it's your first time either in Paris or in France.

;)

markeane 23-09-2011 11:29 AM

I really don't like seeing tickets being sold that quickly for such a big venue. Of course, there are also people buying tickets to sell them, but in 2008 things were much more 'normal'. I'm worried this might change the atmosphere of the gig, I'm not sure it'll be the same kind of audience that it was back then.

For those who couldn't grab their tickets, I don't know why, but I have the feeling they might add another show. Let's hope so!

scottie 23-09-2011 12:14 PM

I GOT IT!

They may add tickets later on. http://www.fnacspectacles.com/recher...earch=coldplay

Lu'kaa 23-09-2011 01:31 PM

What an amazing sale. Incredible. In 2009 I was in the train when the sale for the Parc Des Princes tickets started, and bought my tickets 1 hour later. Had no problem. I got my presage ticket yesterday, bought a ticket this morning for a friend and two other friends managed to get their tickets too. Everything in the standing area.

I'm really sorry to read some of you didn't get tickets. I hope you'll find one soon at the normal price.

I will want all your details! I think it would be so fun to see them in another country, with a crowd that's not an LA crowd. Your whole trip will be awesome.

angedediamant 23-09-2011 07:16 PM

WOW. I've finally found today two tickets category 1 thanks to ... my supermarket. He has a ticketing service and my mom asked if they had any tickets. They told me earlier that was not the case anymore but they finally found two tickets. They were the LAST ones ! I am so lucky !

And that was at 5 PM ! :)

I've heard Coldplay three time today. :) And the first time was in that supermarket. :dance:
