On the morning of November 12, the Call Me by Fire concert officially opened for ticket sales on the Ticketbox platform.
After only 50 minutes, all the tickets were sold out. The speed of "selling out" was so fast that many people were shocked because there were still more than 100,000 people waiting in line.
Although the ticket sales system crashed the minute it opened for sale and took about 5 minutes to fix the error, tens of thousands of tickets were sold in less than 1 hour.
According to the audience, the XVIP class, priced at 8,000,000 VND, was one of the first classes to sell out. At the time when the number of visitors was at its peak, the system displayed a waiting line of more than 150,000.
On their personal pages, Tien Luat and Rhymastic also expressed their helplessness because the waiting line was too long and they could not buy tickets.
Some viewers were able to purchase tickets but the payment system reported that the area was sold out.
“Too many difficulties but still can’t buy tickets. The website crashed, the waiting line was 80,000, tickets sold out early”; “Never seen a concert of such a large scale in Vietnam that could sell out in nearly 1 hour”; “Many ticket categories are being sold at 3, 4 times the price”… are comments from audiences on social networks.
Currently, ticket transfer groups are operating vigorously. However, the risk of fraud is quite high due to high audience demand.
The situation of fraud and buying tickets through intermediaries in the Call Me by Fire concert is expected to be as complicated and difficult to control as the upcoming Anh trai say hi concert in Hanoi.
In recent days, many audiences have lost several million to tens of millions of dong because they subjectively bought tickets to see the show Anh trai say hi through a third party.
Call Me by Fire's second concert has 3 ticket groups including standing, seated and VIP lounge, with 11 different ticket cost classes.
Specifically, the standing ticket group will include Big Fish and Spring Summer Autumn Winter 1, 2, 3, 4 (1,800,000 VND); Ginger Jam 1, 2 (1,200,000 VND); Nursery 1, 2 (800,000 VND).
