Ticket Buying Tips

Prevent your tickets from being released

Please use only one browser window at a time (on the same computer) to hold tickets. If you open a new browser and order a different set of tickets, the tickets held in the previous browser will be released for sale to other customers. This helps us to prevent attempts to use automated programs to block other customers from getting tickets.

Zip through Checkout

Register for My Ticketmaster and sign up for Express Ordering by registering your billing information, you'll avoid extra steps that can stop you from getting the tickets you want. You'll also be able to signup for Newsletters and TicketAlerts on upcoming events.

Tickets on Sale for Big Events

Tickets may go on sale at varying times of the day and on any day of the week. However, the most common time slot that tickets go on sale to the general public is 10:00 a.m., on Fridays, Saturdays and Mondays. It is important to note that the time of day tickets go on sale for a particular show will correspond with the time zone in which the venue is located. For example: If you live in New York City but are looking to purchase tickets to an event that will take place at a venue in Los Angeles, you can assume that the time indicated in the announcement of the ticket sale corresponds with Pacific time zone.

Where to buy tickets

Ticketmaster sells tickets online, on the phone, at Retail Locations, and box offices. Though Retail Locations and box offices can only sell tickets for a particular region, all distribution points typically access the same regional ticket inventory.
