How do I improve my chances of bagging tickets?

This tour is going to be popular. Olly Murs already announced some huge shows during 2017, and tickets were swooped up quickly, so it makes sense to take a bit of time now to be prepared and increase your chances of securing tickets with the following tips. Notepads at the ready!

When are tickets on sale?

Tickets go on general sale at 9:00 on Friday 2 December 2016 here (Bookmark it!).

Open your account and log in now.

Get the details out of the way before tickets go on sale by logging in and checking your Ticketmaster account ahead of time. We recommend checking passwords, delivery address and billing information now, to reduce any stress when processing your order later on. Head to Ticketmaster.co.uk and log in to your account to get started.

Don’t refresh your screen.

Stick to one window when you’re being pushed through the virtual queue and always resist the urge to refresh. Hitting the refresh button means you’ll lose your place in the queue and, as frustrating as it can get, patience is the only way to win this game.

Ticketmaster is equipped with sophisticated systems that are designed to manage and process ticket purchases as quickly as possible. The queuing system that appears on your screen is actually doing something and will place you at the front of the line as soon as possible.

Check when tickets are available – even once they’re on sale.

Keep up-to-date with the latest ticket news on Twitter. If anything changes with Olly Murs tickets – anything at all – our social followers will be the first to know about it.

We send real time updates as the general sales happens, including any technical difficulties that might occur (there are a lot of Olly Murs fans, remember) and alerts on when new tickets come available. When we have popular tours come on sale, we try our very best behind the scenes to secure as many tickets for you as possible and here’s where you’ll know if we’ve been successful.
