Did you miss out in the presale? Bon Jovi fans have revealed a 'Ticketmaster hack' to secure tickets for the UK Forever Tour, ahead of the general sale (Friday, October 31).
In case you missed it, the legendary rockers are coming to this side of the pond next year for gigs in London, Edinburgh, and Dublin.
The forthcoming run is to celebrate 16th studio album Forever, which was released back in June 2024, and tickets are in huge demand.
"There were 147k in front of me [in the queue] for Wembley and 70k at Murrayfield," one fan wrote on Reddit. "Managed to get tickets for Dublin. So happy!"
Another shared their experience: "Wow, joined the queue with around 4,400 people in front of me... and managed to secure two tickets for Wembley."
A third said, "I was in the waiting room for 10 minutes, joined the queue instantly, and there were 38,651 people in front of me."
But successful fans say there's a trick to securing tickets, even when the queue feels impossible, you simply need to 'refresh the page'.
"Just managed to get a single general admission standing ticket for £97 including fees," one shared. "Had 25k people in the queue in front of me. Took a couple of refreshes but it paid off."
"I got in after being over 7,000th in the queue," another commented. "The site crashed and the page was blank! It then loaded and said tickets 'unavailable' - I refreshed thinking I had no hope, but then it reloaded and worked!"
A third emphasised, "You need to keep refreshing."
So, what time does general sale open, and where can you buy tickets? Find out everything you need to know below.
Where to buy Bon Jovi tickets and what time general sale starts
General sale starts at 9am on Friday, October 31 via Live Nation and Ticketmaster. It's recommended that you join the waiting room 15 minutes before the sale kicks off, so that's 8.45am.
For those of you who can't wait until Friday, hospitality tickets are already available to purchase on Seat Unique. Prices start from £609.
Tickets are likely to go on resale soon, too. You'll want to keep your eye on StubHub, Viagogo, and Ticombo.
If you're based in the US, you'll be able to buy tickets via Live Nation and Ticketmaster.
To avoid ticket scams and ensure a money-back guarantee, always purchase resale tickets through verified sites.
