Lady Gaga in Milan, tickets sold out in a few minutes and all the prices of the October concerts

When a superstar like Lady Gaga announces his return to Italy for two concerts, the ticket to tickets is inevitable. The pop star He will perform at the Unipol Forum in Assago, at the gates of Milan, on 19 and 20 October. Two dates that are part of the stages of the new world tour Mayhem Ball. After seven of absence, the pop star returns to the Belpaese. But tickets went out in a few minutes and their decidedly high prices.

Already Tuesday the owners of Mastercard cards were able to buy their preview coupons, with priority access to Ticketmaster. And a wave of reactions on social networks was unleashed: many users complained not only due to the difficulties in the purchase, but also for the price of tickets. To date, it is not known how many have actually been put on sale during the pre-sale.

Prices vary considerably, starting from a minimum of 64.40 euros for places in the sectors farthest from the stage, until you reach 711.15 euros For the Vip Hospitality Package. This exclusive package offers not only the ticket for the concert, but also access to a dedicated lounge, personalized merchandise and other comforts, but without any possibility of meeting Lady Gaga live. It should also be said that the commissions and shipping costs must be added to these figures, to raise the final cost.

For fans who want to be closer to the artist, there are The Gold Circle (lateral areas near the stage), whose cost is 231.15 eurosto which are added the presale commissions. The standing parterre is available for € 190.90while places in numbered sectors start at 231.15 euros for the 1st numbered sector.

Premium tickets

There are also Platinum tickets, whose price is at the discretion of the organizer And it is based on what is called the “market value”. This means that these tickets They can cost the double (and even more) than the base price. For example, if the ticket for the 1st numbered sector costs 231.15 euros plus commissions, the Platinum version of that same place is sold for 460 euros, double. The same dynamic is repeated in other sectors, with a gap that also reaches 246.10 euros for the 2nd numbered sector, where, if the normal ticket costs 190.90 euros, the Platinum one reaches 437 euros.

But Platinum tickets are not new. They have always been the subject of criticism, because, in fact, they favor those who are willing to pay enormous figures in order to ensure a privileged place, with the risk that they end up in the hands of speculators. In this regard, Neil Young recently announced that it will no longer sell Platinum tickets To his concerts, inspired by the example of Robert Smith of care: it does not seem right to him that fans pay exorbitant figures for places that are not necessarily better.

The Mayhem Ball will start on July 16 in Las Vegas To then continue to Seattle, New York, Miami. And then again Chicago, Manchester, London, Barcelona, ​​Amsterdam, Paris.
