How do the presales and the general sale work?
- Reserved by Spotify presale. Tuesday, October 20 at 10 a.m. local time, for eligible Spotify Premium top fans buying for shows at participating Ticketmaster venues. If you missed the window, it's gone.
- Artist presale. Tuesday, October 20 at 5 p.m. local time. Fans signed up for access through the tour dates page on the band's website.
- More presales. The press release says additional presales run through the week before the general sale. We didn't find the others listed, and no public codes. If you got an email with a code or link, use it exactly as written, in the time zone it states.
- General sale. Friday, October 23 at 10 a.m. local time at matchboxtwenty.com, LiveNation.com and Ticketmaster.com. For the Detroit show, the promoter 313 Presents also lists 313Presents.com.
For the Pine Knob show, the promoter notes that tickets are sold on a non-refundable and non-exchangeable basis, that shows run rain or shine, and that parking is included in the ticket price at its amphitheatres. Other venues will have their own rules, so read the policy on your venue's page before you pay. We found no published ticket limit.
Tips for getting tickets
- Choose your date and a backup. With 52 shows, there may be a second option near you. Remember the openers differ by leg.
- Know the venue type. Many dates are outdoor amphitheatres, while Nashville (Bridgestone Arena) and Austin (Moody Center) are indoor arenas. Check the seating map and the policy for each one.
- Sign in before 10 a.m. local time. Make sure your account and payment details are up to date. Use one device, one account and one browser window: the FTC says some buyers use multiple accounts, masked IP addresses or bots to buy tickets for resale, and issuers often limit how many tickets one person can buy to an event.
- Buy from the links the band or the venue gives you. The band's website and the venue's own page are the safest starting points.
What if my show sells out?
Start at the primary seller: Ticketmaster or whichever seller your venue links to is the first place to buy, and the first place to look for authorised resale. Some tours use Ticketmaster's Face Value Exchange, where fans can sell only at the price they paid, including fees and taxes. It only applies if the tour opts in, so check the event page rather than assuming.
Promoters sometimes add extra tickets or shows, but there's no set schedule. Following the band and your venue is the best way to hear.
If you buy from anyone else, pay by credit card where possible, don't pay strangers by bank transfer, and treat tickets offered before the sale opens with suspicion. The FTC takes reports about brokers who break the rules at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.
