I have tickets for the 2nd May which I bought from ticketmaster the day they were released.
I still have not received them.
They sent a message which said not to call more than a week before the show but I'm a bit worried because I have read in other threads that people received their tickets for other shows and someone has even had their tickets stolen/lost in the post.

Has anybody received their tickets for the May 2nd concert?

If you bought them from the TC pre-sale I think you have to pick them up on the night of the show.

I'm gonna be there 3rd and 2nd. We should do a celine get together. I know stevo and I are maybe planning a night out after the show on the 2nd, after stalking Celine first to get our pic taken with her obviously, but the 3rd should also be a night for a few of us to meet, im so excited too!

She will most probably be staying at the Lowry Hotel as it is minutes from the arena. The Spice Girls stayed their when they played in Manchester.

Hmmmm - I got my tickets for both dates already.

1 date (not sure which) I agreed to that thing where they send you them on email and print them out

The other date I asked for the actual tickets - which came a week later.

Got them all thru ticketmaster.

Can't wait!

Try here, not sure if it's booked up.  It's nice enough and pretty cheap and very close to the arena.  If you get no luck booking online try phoning.  I've stopped here a few times and it's alwaqys been OK.  In fact I'm stopping here for kylie in Jully.

she'll def do press in the uk, but because the dates are so close together in different cities i think, i think she'll do press a few days before the manchester date as dont forget she'll more than likely be there practicing, when they get the new stage erected there!!

yeh.
the m.e.n. is empty too. from the middle of april. so she can go there as soon after she finishes th first leg of the tour anyways.
i'm sure she'll be around manchester a few days before.
i wanna work the 2nd May at the M.E.N cos i'll more than likely see her backstage. quite close up. (the spice girls walked right past me) lol.
but i don't wanna hear the concert, set list etc. cos it'll spoil it when i go on the saturday.
:(

but yeh. i think there'll be some press stuff when she arrives in manchester.

And so the countdown goes on to May 2nd!

Am I right in saying that the Manchester concerts will be the first to feature the central stage setup??


If anyone is still needing accomodation in central manchester (walking distance from MEN Arena) let me know!  :D
