    That's almost 100% markup from the Gigaton tour. I don't think they've raised it that much in a short period of time. My guess would be 125 before fees
    Camden was 154 after fees.  Can’t see it being less this time.

    Exactly. Look to the shows announced in 2022 for a guide, not the ones from 2020. 

    I fully expect to pay somewhere between $300 and $400 per pair.

    It's hard not to see what every other band from Arctic Monkeys to Depeche Mode to Springsteen is charging for arena shows and not tense up a little

    150 + fees for a half decent ticket to a major band is not terrible in this day and age.  Granted, in 2016 that covered a pair, not a single.

    Yah I expect a ticket to be sub 200 after fees, but I don't suspect by much.   Tickets have taken off so much in price now.   Not sure if it's because demand won't ebb, or if it's because there's less arena/stadium bands to see, but it's gone crazy. 

    It's hard too, because most of my favourite bands are older now, so it definitely occurs to you.. how many more chances will I get to see them.   If I live to be old enough I won't be able to see these bands anymore... makes you want to see them while you can... but the cost.. lol.

    It comes down to sales bands just don’t make the $$$ for album sales, so they have to make up for it by sky high prices! I don’t care how great a band/artist is I’m not dropping $150 a ticket to see them in giant outdoor stadiums or festivals screw that.

    I'm mixed.  I won't do that for a band I'm a casual or larger fan of, but my favourite band.. probably more latitude with that one.

    Stadiums are kind of a shit show, so my mantra is usually great tickets or bust for stadium shows.

    I know some folks mentioned there was 10c tickets then also premium tickets, what was the difference in price between the two last year, for say, GA tickets?


    They were 100 plus fees which came out to about 128. Premiums varied. I think the closer to the show it was pretty close to the actual price.

    To my knowledge, there were no premium pit tickets. Those are still for 10c only (unless someone drops them on F2F). Regular tickets ran between $121-$124.50 after fees. Premium ran anywhere from $50 to $4000 more depending on the venue, seat location, length of time before show, etc.
    Thanks y'all! this is helpful. Sounds like premium was about as high as Springsteen and Swift, but the face value is still very reasonable. Let's see what we get next go around!

    2018 I believe was 116 after fees. I don't think they'll go to 200 for 1. Probably stay at 154ish. But if they ever play a place like Indiana it'll probably be less. Also in Camden they had lawn seats that were under 100.

    When I saw Ed at the Auditorium Theatre 13 months ago, I paid $475ish for that pair. I would expect similar for the next new Pearl Jam tour.

    That’s absurd I’ll never drop that kind of cash on him the band or any other artist!

    Ed's prices were more than I was willing to pay. Relieved actually to see that tour skip Boston. Made the decision much easier.

    The Earthlings tour was mostly smaller venues so it’s not surprising the tickets were more.  I don’t think PJ tickets would be as much as those Ed’s were.

    Maybe?  On the flip side that was the beginning of platinum tickets, and PJ started shortly therafter when selling the tickets people return from the postpone 2020 tour.

    $475 in US funds for a pair of tickets? I hope this doesn't happen for Pearl Jam. God help us!

    I really dont think it matters a deal, I'll pay what it is. 

    Every time I see these guys they remind me why they are one of the greatest live bands left standing. The entertainment provided in that few hours is often a highlight of the year

    The tickets in 2022 I remember being noticeable "expensive" (Budapest, Prague, Copenhagen) compared to what I have paid for similar shows here in Sweden.

    Are they really at the low end of the spectrum?

    Maybe I'm misremembering.
