No. Well, hopefully.

 

I'm waiting for confirmation - I though I had a pair for the 2nd, I may just have 2 pairs for the 1st!

 

EDIT: All sorted now. Yes I am coming on the 2nd :D

Yeah, I'm still waiting on confirmation too :/

 

I really wish that they would tell you where your seat is.....you pay all that money on blind faith!

I've got one that tells me where my seats are, and the other 2 don't. Wish they'd decide :p

Ah, I just got confirmation but doesn't tell me where my seat is. SO shiiiiiit they do that to you.

Yep. I've got one set of tickets to cancel, but until I get the seats, I don't know which ones to cancel.

 

If they can do one, don't see why they can't do another.

I'm also coming to the second. Where abouts are you guys sitting? I got lower tier block ten. Should be a decent seat I hope.

 

Simply cannot wait!

Block J on the floor it seems. Hopefully the people sitting in front of me will be shorter than me :p

Does anyone know the seating layout for the NIA or got a picture of it?

I got my seat number..... really dont have a clue where it is.

2U,MM,58 ????? ummmmmm

 

wish there was standing :'(

Yeah, I found that one too.... U isnt even on it! :lol:

Uhoh.....

 

thanks anyway :)

 

If they were going to make this tour seats only, they could at least be able to tell us where our hard earned money is going to seat us.

if you got the gigsnadtours tickets. they're slowly adding seat allocations in. just need to go to order tracker with your booking ref & email addy

Yeah, I went on the tracker:

2U,MM,58

I guess I'll be happy if the '2' in 2U is in the section 2 on the map....

won't hold my breath though!

It sounds like it might be upper tier if it's got a U in it. Mine just says J, E, 1-2, which looks like floor.

I shall be extremely annoyed if it is in the Upper Tier 'cause I clicked on the £42.50 tickets... and thats not right, eh?!

 

Phone to See at the ready if that's the case! They should send everyone a map of the layout with their confirmation :(

have they said how much they're charging you? i would have hoped they'll have charged you the cheaper price if they ran out before your booking got through

Im very confused cos on my order it says 1L,K,28-31. Where the hell is that?!?! it only goes up to J on the plan!!

 

confused but VERY excited :D:D

Don't worry, if this is the case, I will be ringing them and complaining/finding out whats gone on..... just need a seating plan to confim it!!!!! :(

I booked this morning too, I think I'm on the floor in section N wherever that is! The charts are just useless! However I'm really looking forward to this as it's going to be the first time I see coldplay. I hope it will be as good as when I saw muse at the NIA 2 years ago, that was brilliant!

Lower tier?? That would be my guess. Anything else, I don't know. I've been looking on and off all day, but I haven't been able to find a decent seating plan.

 

Is it true the capacity's only 4,500?

I just talked to See on the phone....this useless guy told me that the place I was allocated is the right price (the higher price)?? even though its possibly on the upper level..... this is a joke. I dunno what to do :/

Do people think it's fair for them to charge me to sit in this level for 42.50?

I can see its nearer to the stage, but its still going to be high up.

Im so confused.....dunno whether to get a refund or not.
