mirage - do you know what all that means?!

[Der_Griffon]

Ok, a stupid question - are the tickets sold out already????

I don't think I'll have money for that for quite a while still...

I'm so pissed and sad.

[Cheerfuljane]

 

I'll be even further away than you, Tati. I'm flying from Chicago

Just couldn't miss a concert in my home country

For Paris they're not sold out people, chill! I think you'll still be able to get tickets for a few weeks from now on. This is not the small 4,000 seats Colosseum

I don't think the tix are sold out!

 

You know, I have a friend in France and she has been a few times to some concerts in Bercy and she told me they always act lke this: they first put some tickets on sale, than after a while they stop selling some blocks even if they are not sold out, than they add some new blocks for sale after some hours or days...

 

Yeah, it's weird but I guess they make it to keep the demand and to give more people chance to buy the tickets even some months after starting the sale!

 

So I'm sure there will be still some tickets available in June or July... but probably not the greatest seats anymore.

 

@ anewdayhascome:

 

According to Antwerp Sportpaleis website there will be a central stage in Antwerp so I suppose it will all look similair to Bercy, Sportpaleis seems to be bigger than Bercy though.

Sportpaleis seems to be bigger than Bercy though.

 

In fact, it depends on the configuration they'll use.

According to both offical sites:

 

Bercy: 17, 000 places

Sportpaleis: 13, 780 to 18,500 places

 

(I can't understand a thing at the Spotpaleis site thou lol?

 

Capaciteit tribunes: 12.000 zitplaatsen (13.500 bij gebruik van het volledige ovaal “in the round”)

Capaciteit middenplein: 1.780 zitplaatsen of 5.000 staanplaatsen

Houten wielerpiste (onder tribunes): 250 meter lang, 8 meter breed

 

????

[tativale]

Of course that you couldn't miss it Jane! That's fantastic! Do you have great ticket? I saw on the map that all the front part is for companies tables.. is thar right? If so, it trully does suck! hehe You have to have dinner with Celine!!! I'll write to Celine and tell her that Jane - her biggest fan EVER in South Africa - will fly all the way from Chicago to see Celine performacing at her (Jane) home country!!!!!! and that Celine must meet you!!!!

How likley do you think it is that she will come to the UK? And if she does where do you think it will be?

[ZoraSourit]

Prices at South Africa goes from R 688.00 (about 72 euros) to R 788.00 (about 83 euros).

[Ted]

Here is link for concert seating Sportpaleis: 13, 780 to 18,500 places. This is not seating chart. It only a picture. Hope this helps.

17 000 places in Bercy is for STANDING places.

 

Celine Dion show is with seating places only so it reduces the capacity of the hall to 11 000 places.

 

And in Sportpaleis Antwerp there will be 13 500 at the tribunes (becaue they use ALL tribunes as the stage is in the middle so non of the tribunes will be out of use) + 1 780 seats in the floor next to the stage (I guess it will be something like blocks W and X at Bercy).

 

So the total capacity in Sportpaleis seems to be 15 280 as for Celine shows and in Bercy there will be "only" 10 000 per concert.

I hope you're right.... I don't think I'll have money for that until later this year (

I don't care for the places, I will never have 200 for a ticket anyway, but anything will do, just to see Celine for the first time in my life...

Well, I also want to see an English show in Berlin as well, so... hm...

[Cheerfuljane]

Thanks Tati

I`m looking forward to that dinner

 

 

Yes, the front tables are for companies only. R10 000 for 10 seats. Thats almost $1000 for a table. You have to buy a table not just one seat. Lucky "SAFan" (above) has a table in front

I did get the next best seat though - Gala seating just to the left of the stage. We even get free cocktails That cost R980 ($90). Lucky for me, I`m earning GB Pounds so that isn`t too expensive with the exchange rate It`s still way cheaper than my LV tix

[Bellamy]

Can they make more crappy quality video than that? This video quality is so 1997.

[Cheerfuljane]

Welcome to South Africa

[CelineRox]

people who have booked for Bercy - do you think we will get an e mail when the tickets have been dispatched? I will be so excited to have the tickets in my hands!

[Terre]

Congrats to all of you who got tickets! You're so lucky! I was thinking of buying tickets for Antwerp but then deciced to wait until they release more concert dates. It would be absolutely fantastic to see both a French show and an English show but I don't think I can afford it. I'll be seeing Céline no matter what, I just don't know where and when.

[Céline's Blues]

I am so looking forward to the Antwerp concert! With the hitti ragazzi we got absolutely amazing seats for a very affordable price! Time will fly by and we will be in no time there.

[ZoraSourit]

Who's going to Paris 21st? And Antwerp 16th?

[Teodora]

Who's going to Paris 21st? And Antwerp 16th?

I'll go in Paris on the 21st. I have front row seats

[Dionesque]

It's the wrong hall - it's an another hall, smaller (capacity is only something over than 7 000 places).

 

Celine will be singing in Sportpaleis itself so in the biggest hall of this complex.

[Davey84]

Capaciteit tribunes: 12.000 zitplaatsen (13.500 bij gebruik van het volledige ovaal “in the round”)

Capaciteit middenplein: 1.780 zitplaatsen of 5.000 staanplaatsen

Houten wielerpiste (onder tribunes): 250 meter lang, 8 meter breed

 

????

(I can't understand a thing at the Spotpaleis site thou lol? yep I do

 

it says the seat capacity in the bleachers (?!?) where you sit! hahaha has 13,500 when there is a in the round concert, like Céline

and the field had 1780 places to sit, or 5000 places to stand... so I don't understand why there are sitting places...

 

and the below part has nothing to do with it!

Welcome to South Africa

 

[Dionesque]

Oh, I meant that Lotto Arena is the wrong hall as Celine will be singing in Sportpaleis itself which about 2x bigger than Lotto Arena.

 

I'm sorry, I quoted the wrong post and now I can't edit it anymore...

 

Maybe mods can remove the quote part of my previous post? Thx!

[nature boy]

How did they sell does anyone know?

[ErwinG]

congrats to those who already got tickets ... you making me anxious ... hehe

[Gina00]

I wish she would come to Australia too.

[Ronny83]

Céline announced yesterday during the press conference that she will be also in Toronto on August 2008.

[maxceline]
