The Weeknd fans have shared a 'hidden hack' for securing tickets in the general sale, after thousands missed out in a 'Ticketmaster war'.

As you're sure to know, the Blinding Lights star is set to play Wembley Stadium on August 14, 15, 16 and 17 (buy tickets here), and presale started earlier this week.

Buy early VIP seats


But people have been airing their frustration online, saying they were 'stuck' in the waiting room to buy tickets for a long time, before ending up at the back of a very long queue.

So, where can you buy tickets, and what is the hack everyone is raving about? Find out everything you need to know about the After Hours Til Dawn UK Tour below.

How to secure The Weeknd tickets in the general sale

On Reddit, fans have been sharing their joy after securing tickets to see The Weeknd at Wembley Stadium, and there's a trick you need to know before this week's general sale (12pm on Friday, September 12).

"Keep refreshing!!!! I refreshed for a whole hour after being 800 in the queue to see nothing available," one fan revealed, saying the once grey 'sold out' map then refreshed with available seats. "Finally it popped back up all blue and I got in."

Another added: "I was waiting in the queue at 12pm and then when I got in, they had no tickets. So I went back to work, and I’ve just got home, and they have tickets available!!!

"Refresh and you'll get some tickets. I got mine too, after refreshing countless of times, and I got tickets for in the second ring. As long as I'm there, it's good for me."

"Keep searching for 'best available seats', sometimes I think people cancel their tickets, which become available again. I got my tickets for Amsterdam like one hour after the sale started and I was like 20K in the queue," revealed another fan, so even if it seems hope is lost, tickets might still pop up.
