Christa42 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 You can try to get tickets thru the Today Show. if you do not have tickets ppl are lined up the night before and even with tickets we got there at 4 am the first year they played to get a good spot. It is all GA but broken up into sections March is cold ppl, dress warmly and pray it does not rain EDIT and once you are in you cannot leave your spot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halokiti Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I'm on the e-mail list for the Today Show Concert Series, this is RSVP link they sent me. Looks like the Today Show RSVP site is not working right now, but looks like it is the direct RSVP link for 3/14/16. https://visit.today.com/rsvp/special/2016-03-14/?cid=eml_tml_20160229 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 OMG, Coldplay coming to NYC ???!!! I just applied for a fan pass ! It would be a dream come true if this worked out. I have two questions, for people like @Christa42 who know more about this than me: - It says only for legal US residents. Does that mean I can't go if I am in the US on a visa ? Do I have to be American Citizen ? Or does it just mean you have to be in the US on a legal basis ? - I'm from MA, and going to NYC (by bus) would be a big thing for me. Is is worth going there even if I don't get a fan pass and trying to line up ? Or are events like these so overbooked that I will in all likelihood be turned away if I have no ticket ?

Christa42 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I do not know but you should call about the legal status information, If you do not have a pass they will be lining up the night before, we saw them with our very eyes sleeping on the streets, very dedicated fans. There is only so much room on the plaza, I do not want to discourage you in not going but it would be best to have a fan pass and then if you do you should get there by 4-5 am.

Christa42 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 RSVP to get the inside scoop on how you can be part of the show. A limited number of Fan Passes are available by advanced request via a digital lottery system. Guests who receive the Fan Pass will be notified by email about one week prior to the scheduled concert date. Each Fan Pass is valid for 2 guests. Please note that admission is not guaranteed unless guests follow all Fan Pass instructions and arrive to check in by 6 a.m. Passes are non-transferrable. ID is required at check-in. If you do not receive a Fan Pass, you can still join the general admission line on 48th Street between 5th and 6th Avenue on the morning of the concert. More info here.

I ran away Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 @Christa42 - Thanks for the infos !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 So fellow Coldplayers, I'm gonna do a similar thing as with Global Citizen: I applied for a fan pass and if I get one, I will invite a fellow Coldplayer from Coldplaying to join me for the second spot !! (Only condition: Be there to line up early!) Vice versa, if you are a Coldplayer who wins a fan pass but doesn't know who to go with, I'd be happy if you invite me along for the second spot. Let me know if you are interested in this ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Has anyone heard back yet from the TODAY show ? Cause they said they would notify you about a week before if you were successful or not, which would mean possibly today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halokiti Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Sorry for the late notice, I was late myself. I never know when they update this website. Citi Private Pass VIP Access for Today Show Waitlist. You need to be a Citibank card holder. https://www.citiprivatepass.com/landing/coldplay_today.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejiranyc Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Sooo... has anyone done the Today show with a fan pass before? I went to the Today show many years ago without a pass and I was pretty freakin' far back in the crowd. My understanding is that there is a pit in front of the stage where the camera crew works. Then there is the VIP section. Then there is a "radio pass" area. Then there is the fan pass area. Then the rest of the hoi polloi who get to watch from Pluto. I just received notification in an e-mail that I have won a fan pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 So if you are Citibank you can take up to 4 people ? Anyone here who has a Citibank card but doesn't have 4 friends to go with (and thus would have a spot free ?) Or anyone else with a free spot ? I didn't get any email :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spraycan Soul Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I didn't win anything yet either…dammit…I was hoping to go up from Philly to see it, but if I get up there early and still can't get in it's gonna piss me off. :furious3: Then again if i'm lucky enough to get it in it would be a nice adventure.:clap: Dammit, what to do. what to do 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobbins Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 On the Today show this morning, they said the CP crowd could get combined with spring breakers, which will make it even crazier. Just a warning.... :wtf: I'll be cheering for you guys if you decide to go for it. I'm just glad I don't have to make that decision for myself I'm too many states west of there to go. Hoping to live vicariously through you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbarry5503 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I'm super excited to be traveling up from DC to see Coldplay @ The Today Show. I was lucky enough to have seen them on the plaza back in 2008. The best part of the morning was watching the rehearsal. Here's some video from that morning. I would love to meet up with some fellow coldplayers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
