How to buy Stereophonics tickets: Exact prices, release date, how to maximise your chances and mistakes to avoid
STEREOPHONICS fans are in store for an exciting summer next year.
The Welsh rock legends have announced their Stadium Anthems Summer ’25 Tour — here’s everything you need to know about getting tickets.
When do Stereophonics tickets go on sale?
The general sale for Stereophonics tickets will begin on Friday, October 11, 2024, at 9am BST.
However, there were a couple of presales offering earlier access to tickets:
- Album presale: Fans who had preordered the band’s upcoming studio album by 2pm on October 8, 2024, could gain access to a presale starting at 9am on October 9, 2024
- Venue-specific presales: Some venues are offering their own presales — for example, Principality Stadium account holders could access a presale at 9am on October 9, 2024
Maximising your chances
- Prepare in advance: Create accounts on ticket selling platforms including Ticketmaster and See Tickets before the sale date
- Use multiple devices: Have your computer, phone and tablet ready to join the queue simultaneously
- Join a ticket queue early: Queue systems often open before the official sale time, so it’s a good idea to join 10-15 minutes early
- Have your payment information ready: Save time by having your credit card details at hand
- Be flexible with dates: If you can’t get tickets for your preferred date, be open to attending on a different day
- Consider hospitality tickets: These are often easier to secure due to higher prices and lower demand
- Team up: Coordinate with friends or family to try for tickets on multiple devices simultaneously
Mistakes to avoid
- Relying on a single device or browser: This limits your chances in the queue
- Refreshing the page excessively: This can kick you out of the queue in some systems
- Opening multiple tabs: Accessing the sale from multiple tabs can also lead to you losing your place in the queue
- Being unprepared with payment information: Tickets often have a time limit in your basket
- Falling for scams: Only purchase from official sources like Ticketmaster, See Tickets, or the band’s official website
- Assuming your old account is active: If you already have an account, double check it is still working, billing info is accurate and saved, and that you can remember the password
