Huge Demand As Tickets For Coldplay's BBCR1 Concert Are Snapped Up

Tickets went on sale at 19:45 UK time this evening, for Coldplay's special BBC Radio 1 Concert on December 3rd. Demand was very high as expected and tickets were sold out within minutes!

 

Some fans were stuck in an online ticket queue, while others weren't able to complete their transactions. It's estimated (according to a Twitter poll and forum posts) that only 12% of online Coldplayers managed to snap up tickets.

 

Like we mentioned previously, getting tickets to the intimate show was always going to be very difficult, as we know what happened during the ticket rush for the Royal Albert Hall gig last year and the capacity of St John's church is 4 times smaller than the London venue of the 'Ghost Stories' tour. Unlike many tour concerts of 2014, this show will be available to listen to via BBC Radio 1. The concert will take place at St John's church in Hackey, London (E5 0PD).
