Good afternoon. It's just been announced that Coldplay will play at Detroit's Palace of Auburn Hills on 1 August 2012. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on 4 February from Ticketmaster. There will also be a pre-sale for AMEX cardholders, beginning at 10am on 30 January, again from Ticketmaster.

 

To see the full list of 59 shows now in the diary, head to our Live section.

I'm not looking for plane tickets, not at all

 

 

who am I kidding, please let me find an affordable one!

 

about time.

It's about freaking time. Now I just need to convince someone to spend $125 to go with me :rolleyes:. Seriously though, I'm going to this even if I have to get the top of the top seats. Is this going to be like all of the other US shows and have seats on the floor? If it does that's really dumb.

Can't wait!!! And it's on my birthday too!!! :D

I'm trying to get my mom to let me go, I can pay everything I just need a driver

Does anyone know what the radio/venue presale password is going to be? Are there going to be floor seats in the presale? Or will I just have to duke it out with the general sale on the 4th?

Never done this before, can somebody advise me on where the best seats are?

 

Also, should I get my tickets during the presale or wait till the 4th?

Well, the best seats are going to be on the floor. Here are the costs for all seating:

 

Floor seating

US $96.50 Ticket + US $15.15 Fees = US $111.65

 

Club seating (100 or lower level)

US $76.50 Ticket + US $14.75 Fees = US $91.25

US $96.50 Ticket + US $15.15 Fees = US $111.65

 

Loge seating (200 or upper level)

US $46.50 Ticket + US $14.10 Fees = US $60.60

US $76.50 Ticket + US $14.75 Fees = US $91.25

 

I don't know what tickets will be offered for the radio/venue presale. The AmEx presale looks like it is only VIP or non-floor seats. I think I'll be going for it in the general sale. I just hope I can get great floor seats. :\

^ AMEX presale tickets for section A/C are $425 (VIP Party Package) and $275 (VIP Tour Package). The normal floor tickets are $111.65 for section D/E/F (also AMEX presale)

Thank God the general sale starts on a weekend, that way I can get tickets as soon as it opens up.

 

...If that's a good strategy :/

Are the general sale tickets more expensive than the presale ones?

Doubt it but idk

Well I looked at the venue/radio presale. All I was getting was arena seats. I didn't get any floor tickets. I'm going to go for those tomorrow, I guess. Good luck to everyone else going for those as well! :)

For people who are interested, here is a good seating chart where you can zoom in and see the exact rows in detail: http://www.palacenet.com/files/palace_gcs_map.pdf

 

 

I'm not sure how many floor seats are "available"; a lot of those are designated VIP party and VIP tour seats.

 

I ended up getting two sets of tickets, so I'm eventually going to sell the first set that I bought (they weren't as good as the second set). If anybody here doesn't end up getting seats let me know. At some point I will either put them for sale in the Ticket Exchange thread, or put them on ebay or something.

 

This will be my first time seeing them at the Palace, I've only seen them at DTE before this (June 2009)! Actually I think DTE is better in general, but oh well. :tongue:

So are tickets already on sale? I'm looking just to get club seating because the last couple times me and the wife got floor seating she couldn't even see.

They go on general sale tomorrow :)

I'm optimistic that I can get club seating at least somewhat close because most people will be going for the floor seating. Just have to remember to set the alarm tomorrow morning.

^ You can get Club seating right now if you go to the Venue / Live Nation / Radio Presales section, type in "electronic", pick best available. However, the ones that pop up are at the far side of the stage (maybe a little behind). This is an example, they are about $120 each:

 

Section 103

Row M

Seats 13 - 14

Description Price Level 1

Club seating (100 or lower level)

Warning! Side stage!

 

But you could wait to see if you can get other Club seats tomorrow though that aren't so far to the side.

 

And when I checked earlier, the floor seats (except VIP) were already sold out.

I really hope this doesnt mean that all of the sections at the side of the stage are already sold out too. That would be a huge letdown.

I don't think the other sections are sold out yet. The hard part is that even though ticketmaster has implemented a "choose your own seat" format recently, it hasn't been applied to this yet. So you are at the whim of what the software considers best available, as opposed to what you might consider best available. Basically it stinks because we can't see how many seats are left (and where).

When I tried the password around 10:15 this morning none of the floor tickets were showing up. I can't believe that I forgot about it this morning. Hopefully I can get something on the floor tomorrow. :anxious:

WoW I'm already getting no matches which I'm guessing means they already sold out. I checked right at 10 AM and the only available seats were upper deck in the 200's.

I don't think it's sold out. It said more tickets will be available as the event nears

Yeah I think I might wait and see if any lower bowl tickets open up. Last time during the Viva tour I bought tickets day one on the floor from Ticketmaster then about 5 months after that found ones about 15 rows in front of that. Not even sure how that happens.
