Despite the initial rush for Adele concert tickets, thousands have been left unsold, provoking fan backlash due to the exorbitant prices.
Every one of the ten evenings planned at the Messe Arena in Munich, which seats 80,000, still has seats up for grabs for the ‘Hello’ hitmaker’s shows.
Ticketmaster displays around 2000 empty seats for each show in August.
The most affordable ticket found was priced at £281, while a prime location near the stage cost up to £1,070.
This will be the first time since 2015 that Adele, who is now 35 years old, will have performed in Europe.
Following the initial report, fans took to social media to express their disappointment: “Adele ticket prices are insane. Why are artists making it so hard for average folks to attend their concerts?”
An anonymous source from the industry commented: “Should these tickets remain unsold, ticket promoters might need to think about dropping the prices. Additionally, hotel prices have skyrocketed. It’s quite the quandary.”
Adele announced just six dates initially but then extended her schedule to include four additional nights due to the overwhelming demand.
The ‘Someone Like You’ singer shared on the web: “I was perfectly happy with my concerts at London’s Hyde Park and my residency in Vegas, so I hadn’t planned anything more. But curiosity got the best of me, and I couldn’t resist seeing what it would be like to create a one-time pop-up stadium show in Munich, right in the heart of Europe—although it seems rather random, it’s still marvelous!”
