There is expected to be crazy demand for tickets, but tips have been shared before on how to best navigate the Ticketmaster system to increase your chances. Ahead of Taylor Swift's three concerts in Dublin's Aviva Stadium in June, Instagram account The Concert Celebrity, who has 80,000 followers and offers exclusive concert news, shared their top tips.
They said: “Open your mobile browser for Ticketmaster, or Ticketmaster website on your computer browser. Please do not use the app! Make sure you are logged in to your account, if you are not logged in you won’t be able to access the waiting room or queue and this will slow you down.
“Do not use multiple devices on the same Ticketmaster account, it will place all your devices in the same place in the queue and too many devices will make you look like a bot and kick you out of the queue. When you join the queue and get through to selecting tickets, don’t panic!
“I also suggest not selecting best available, it never gives you best available. It normally gives you random seats that normally aren’t that good. Search the area you want and then search and see if you get your tickets.
“It’s also a good idea to check your Ticketmaster account is up to date. Have the current card you’re going to use saved as well as the correct billing address. If you search and there are no tickets available, keep searching for a little while, people with tickets in their basket might release them and they will become available again!
“Also just a bit of advice on your computer: I do also suggest if it’s a laptop or computer, closing all the apps and tabs and keeping it plugged in, as it will run faster. Also make sure your browser is up to date. You can also clear your cache. If you don’t know how to do this Google it or find a video on YouTube. Finally, good luck getting tickets!”
Tickets for the Dublin gigs will go on sale on Ticketmaster at 8am on Saturday, August 31.
