Well, here's the thing:  If tickets go on sale on Friday, then all the scalper sites will buy them out because us poor souls will not have enough money to buy them just yet.
And even if you do, it's extremely unlikely that they'll put the good seats on sale now.  They will wait until a few weeks before so they can hold them for VIPs and big spenders.

You may be able to detect that I'm furious   This is a huge slap in the face for us and I'm close to organizing a boycott !!

Come on ya'll !!  Let's protest

Count me in too... this is really frustrating!

I think I'm going to wait, I'm a poor soul at the moment too and Friday is too soon to decide. Plus you're absolutely right, unless there is a TC presale - there won't be any good seats available to purchase on Friday, most likely. Hopefully my luck will continue as far as tickets… and it’ll all work out in the end.

I wonder if other fans are treated this way...

Shitt! I couldn't affor seeing her in Vegas last time, but I might just be able to do that now. So, people, how does one book from Europe? I hope I'm lucky enough to get tickets for the premiere show, if that would be at all possible.

There are a few possibilities to book.  

1) Ticketmaster
2) Caesars Palace
3) TeamCeline (Céline's official fanclub)
4) Other websites (but be carefull with that)
5) In Las Vegas itself at the box office or one of the differen shops through the city.

Yeah, well, that's no secret about TM.  It sucks, but it's just the way it is.
So if you can't buy tickets when they go on sale, you end up with no choice but to pay the high prices for scalper tickets from places like stubhub and not get great seats or pay the EXTREMELY high prices from TE and get great seats.
Once again, it sucks, but we have no choice

I remembered there was some issues going on with Ticketmaster's  TicketExchange a while back .... you may want to read this.  Not sure, just wondering if Ticketmaster is still using Ticketexchange based on this information:

http://www.switched....dary-web-sites/

http://classactionbl...ness-practices/

Ticketexchange and TicketsNow are companies owned by Ticketmaster Inc.  I'm pretty sure they will use it any time they can   As long if there is no local law against the things they are doing and nobody is actually filling complaints they will keep doing it.

To joing Team Celine or not , that is the question?  
the website is really un user friendly when you go about trying to join! they ask for address to send out a package or something? weird....you should not have to wait 7 working days to get all the benifits......I d be so mad if i joined today and if the tickets went on sale on friday.....when your travelling across the world and all !!!!ahhhhh!

I just renewed my TC about a month ago and when you purchase the membership, they immediately send you an email with an activation code to register and get into the TC website so you should be able to use the TC "benefits" right away. Then they send a package with your letter and membership card and gift in the mail.

Thanks LadyLindsey, I wonder so if I join like today , I wonder would i be allowed to buy tickets in the presale if there was one  

I'm pretty sure you would be, as all you need to activate your membership is that activation code they send in the email. Let's hope we actually get a pre-sale and that the TC block of seats are better than the regular seats!

I know what u mean, I just purchaced TC acct. not sure whats in store for me, but I 'm NOT going to TChances on not getting bad seats for this one. but I will call TM/Caerars Palace.

[Davey84]

I got this e-mail back... and I nearly had a heart failure (second one today! ) when I saw 'Team Celine' & 'Tickets for the new show' in once e-mail head!!

It will cost a bomb if i ring ceasers palace from my house in Ireland! but if i need to do that to gaurentee good seats, ill have to think about it .   I remember when i was at Taking chances tour in dublin, I could see all celine fans , like a major flock of them with tour books, hats etcI was almost sure it was team celine stuff they were all wearing, like 100 or more fans all together, but to me they hadnt got good seats at all!!! like i couldnt see celine at all, barely, i could just see her on screens properly, those guys had worse seats than me. Thats my opinion anyway from what i remember,So if they are the kind of seats team celine offer, well it kind of sucks. But anyway, it doesnt look like TC are going to be offering ANY seats from the looks of things, so i dont know.....
The moral of my story is is that i want really good seats and havnt a flying clue how to go about getting them!   i wont be going if i dont get one of the frontish rows

I'm in the middle of planning my Las Vegas wedding (September 2010), and... because of this... the last thing I have is extra money lying around.  Welcome back, "Celine fund"... I guess I need to start saving again!

[Celine Fan 77]

OMG, do you think I'll be able to buy 2 tickets for 1st row for one of the April concerts??¿??¿??????

It's extremely unlikely that they'll open the front row if the tickets go on sale now, but give it a try anyway

[angelil78]

I've been in:
2nd Mezzanine front row, they were good seats
Rear Orchestra -4, second row for the premiere, good seats
Rear Orchestra -5, front row, great seats
Front Orchestra  row 10 twice, fantastic seats

So I will say that no seat at the Colosseum is a bad seat.

Ofcourse the front row is the best but if you don't get front row, it's not bad at all

You are right ... just have to be there!!!

But ofcourse we always try to get the Front Rows ...

Jane & Erwin - Thanks!  You can see what an impact Celine has left on me... a Vegas wedding!  Would never have happened there without her.  I should invite her.  

[thu_celine dion]

Well if this does turn out to be true then it obviously means no baby, which makes me    

If those prices of $95 + $200 are correct, then i think that second price is bloody expensive!

If those dates are correct, then she'd only have (most of the time) Mondays and Thursdays off. I thought she only wanted to do 3 shows a week??

$200 is totally worth it, when i went to see A New Day i was in 4rd row center, you can even see Celine's toes from there, so have and buy one of the expensive one because is worth it!!!

Well there are rumours Neil Diamond will also get a contract at Ceasars' Palace and it should be announced soon... so who knows...

And Jennifer - why don't you add "Celine Dion tickets" to your Wedding Gift List???

Ticketmaster began promoting an on-sale ticket date for this Friday for Celine’s new run of Colosseum shows to start March 25 next year. It’s expected that Caesars Palace and AEG officials will this week announce Celine’s return home to Las Vegas ........

[nuts2you]

Well if that is the date that she will be there , I was thinking that would be a prefect b-day gift from us to all be there for opening night. Since her b-day is MARCH 30,

Hey, good point! If we make it with the award thing (and I'll do whatever I can to finish the project and BE THERE), it'll be an amazing early birthday present! *.*

But still, I hope the date IS March 25th but I'm lso praying that they've decided to postpone the sales by at least a month.. I need to solve some private and professional issues and make some plans, I can't just cheerfully spend $200 on a ticket this Friday and wonder if I'm even gonna be able to go...

[CSCfan]

Wow, they asked Barbra to sign a $100 million dollar deal for 3 years and she turned down.

A source tells PopEater.com, "After Celine Dion left Vegas, no one has been able to replace her. Bette Midler failed, Cher is trying, only Barbra is guaranteed to succeed.
