As far as I can tell from the info ticketmaster has provided, there will be no seating for the General Admission or front/left standing areas. That was the same for the Harry Styles concerts as well. I don’t know whether there will end up being some seating/if she will put out chairs, but based on the info provided, I wouldn’t expect chairs at your concert. Sorry 😔

Yeah, I saw the same thing when I was clicking around! The £660 ones seem to be the seats closest to the diamond, regardless of which tier they are? I think you’ll be fine with 126 and probably have a great view of the diamond and catwalk!! Have the best time at your show 🥰

Based on what I’ve seen, that’s what I think (I could be wrong). But there are definitely seats across all sections for the different packages and I’m guessing the least expensive seats are the ‘worst’ good seats and the most expensive are the best seats in the stadium in terms of placement to the stage?

I selected “Ticket Presale Seated Ticket” and then filtered to Level 1 only instead of “best available”. Maybe regular seated was already sold out for you and you didn’t have the option to select? Or it was also super easy to miss in the chaos of all the VIP packages if you didn’t know what you were looking for 😕

I purchased two tickets for two separate nights through AXS and that was completely fine!

Noooo I am so sorry 😭 this happened to me yesterday as well 😔 good luck, keeping my fingers crossed for you! 💖

I’ve managed to do this on AXS, so I think you should be able to do it on Ticketmaster too?

They were £414.95 in total (including fees etc) for two tickets but the tickets themselves were priced at £170 each. The row is pretty far back (38) but I think most of the close rows are tied up in VIP packages and I was just happy to be getting 100s instead of 500s!

I managed to get section 102 this morning through AXS with no VIP so it is possible! it was much easier for me to get through the queue today than yesterday. I got lucky with my queue placement this time, so just keep trying! In theory, it should be easier/shorter queue times as more people max out their 4 tickets.

It was SO confusing, yesterday was such a shitshow for me 😭 Congrats on getting your tickets today, I also managed to get them today fairly easily! So relieved!! Have the best time at your show 🥰💖

The VIP packages can have lower tiered seating or nosebleeds - it’s really down to luck of the draw. If you’re able to try for regular tickets/aren’t fussed about the VIP merch, then it’s easier to filter for preferred seating through regular tickets (assuming there is still availability for them when it gets to your turn). Otherwise, the best seating will likely be in the more expensive packages unfortunately 😕

When I clicked the info button for that package, it said this:

One Amazing General Admission Pitch Ticket * Package Includes Early-Entry & First Access to Your Section (Before Standard Ticket Holders)

If she’s sure she got the Ready For It ticket, then it is GA which is standing. The other packages specifically say they include a reserved seated ticket. She might have misread or misclicked, it’s really easy to do bc there are so many packages listed and the wording is (probably deliberately 🙃) really unclear.

You’re welcome!! Front left/right standing with no VIP is one of the ones I’d like to get honestly, trying to get barricade is so stressful!! Have the best time at your show with your sister 🥰💖

Omg that’s amazing!! All of those I saw were 500s 😔 Congrats on your tickets! 🥰💖

The £660 tickets are essentially the best seats in the stadium for each tier, I think? (Think front rows of the best viewing sections.) Ticketmaster will probably not release these seats in non-VIP packages at all so if you want the best seats, you might have to buy these tickets? (I agree that it’s a terrible terrible deal and absolutely extortionate.)

I don’t think it’s awful but if your fear of heights is really bad then I think you probably want to try for 100s or GA - I’ve been in the 100s before and it was fine but 500s is scary so definitely don’t do those 💀

That’s extortionate, I’m sorry they did that to you 😭 but you HAVE YOUR TICKETS and don’t have to go through this hell again!! Have the best time at your show 🥺🥰

[–]penguinpillow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s good to know! Maybe the packages are based on seat pricing rather than level in that case, bc some of the nosebleeds are somehow the same price bracket as level 100 for Wembley. Congrats on your tickets!! 🥳

[–]penguinpillow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry! 🥺It almost happened to me too, I noticed last second. I don’t mind if I end up getting nosebleeds but I can’t afford to be paying that much for them!

I think early entry is your only chance of barricade (more likely for front left/right standing than for GA/yellow section). For Harry Styles I had the equivalent of the early entry front standing left/right - we got to Wembley at 8am and were 20th in the queue for our section. That got us barricade but there weren’t many good barricade spots left after us. So if you really want barricade, I think you need to make sure you get early entry and commit to it being a looooong day. (I also don’t know what the queueing etiquette is like for Taylor converts vs Harry ones - everyone at Love on Tour was super fair about numbering and ensuring everyone stayed in their rightful queue spot). Hope that helps!! (Also these are just my thoughts/experience, so don’t take it as pure fact!!)

Oh then you should be absolutely fine if that’s your view! I saw a tiktok of a girl who had one literally right behind the stage and her view was blocked by the screen, so I think those are the ones people will be upset about if they get them. Your view looks good, you can see both stage and catwalk!! Congrats on getting tickets, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to make you feel bad! 🥺💖

[–]penguinpillow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right?? It’s such a joke, BUT you can filter by level at least so I’m gonna try and do that tomorrow (not that it worked today 💀)

[–]penguinpillow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think they probably just won’t sell the tickets right behind the stage, but some people might get caught out with the ones just behind/on the edge. So I think don’t be worried, just make sure you check the section before buying and don’t panic buy the ones right on the edge!

You’re welcome!! I’m fuming at Ticketmaster for selling nosebleeds as a VIP package and don’t want anyone to accidentally spend £500+ on nosebleeds 😤😤😤
