I'm already going to the MEN gig but I'd love to go to this as well xD

Not sure if I can afford it though

Would there be any differences between this and the MEN?

Can somebody please clarify how the O2 priority works? What do I need to do and what site should I buy from?

Tr · 15-11-2011, 09:01 AM

Oh how I wish this was at melbourne's etihad stadium!
I'm also a city fan too so this is doubly awesome!

K1ttycat · 15-11-2011, 12:01 PM

Hi -Just a few questions!

What presales will be taking place for this - I know there is the O2 one which doesn't help me but are there any others? Please feel free to IM me if preferred.
Also does anyone know what the price range will be and how seating will work? I'm assuming it will be standing on the floor but what about the three levels of seats? Will the lowest level of seats - think its the 100s be general admission seats also or are they reserved?

Thanks!

beckie42 · 16-11-2011, 09:10 AM

I just got my tickets through O2 Priority ( http://www2.o2priority.co.uk/ )
General Admission £49.50 with a handling fee through Gigs and Tours.
Tier 2 - £65
Tier 3 - £65
And then there's another option for Tier 3 which looks exactly the same but is £55 Don't know what that's all about, sorry.
There're also some options for a signed programme which I haven't gone for because it's almost another £30 which I can't afford.

antshar · 16-11-2011, 09:17 AM

Got mine too! Whoop

beckie42 · 16-11-2011, 09:26 AM

K1ttycat,
According to the GigsandTours site, all the tiers of seating are reserved.
When I bought my GA tickets there wasn't an option to pick a seat where there is with the Tier ones, so I assume GA is ONLY for standing

K1ttycat · 16-11-2011, 09:35 AM

Thanks Beckie - Can't see anything on the gigsandtours.com site as it just says tickets on sale on Friday. All the first tier ones will probably be sold out by then though as I think the Manchester City supporters get a presale as well. Really wanted to get seats in the first tier as I have a problem with my right leg and I was hoping to enter the stadium on the ground level and go to the first tier and only have to go up a few rows. (I am assuming that with the first tier seats you go from the bottom upwards, where as with the 2nd tier you enter at the top of tier and walk down.) Anyone know? Will have to see how it goes on Friday!

YourPolitik · 16-11-2011, 09:36 AM

Well that was easier than I thought, got straight through

beckie42 · 16-11-2011, 09:39 AM

Are you with O2 or have friend/family member with them? You can get Priority tickets there http://www2.o2priority.co.uk/ but you have to have signed up.. I don't know if there're any left now.
As to the layout of the stadium, I'm afraid I have no idea, I've never been before but I would assume they wouldn't have you walk all the way down the steps as they do at the M.E.N :/

K1ttycat · 16-11-2011, 09:48 AM

I always ask to use the lift at the MEN....lol...but that's if we get floor tickets. I avoid the first tier there as I'm petrified of it! I was just looking at seetickets.com and they have a floor plan up and it looks like, according to the colour coding, that the first tier will be general admission and not reserved seating - but then again it could just be a generic seating plan they are showing. http://www.seetickets.com/Event/COLD...Stadium/601593

JackColdplay · 16-11-2011, 10:44 AM

Got standing tickets so happy! They haven't even sold out yet!
