couldawouldashoulda Posted June 17, 2019 at 04:17 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 04:17 PM Well I don't exactly find 370 Euros (for a Diamond ticket) cheap..... Especially if you can still end up standing at the 15th row or further. My NYC tickets were $900 each. I found 299 pounds/roughly $400 per ticket to be cheap comparatively! Quote
Peter12345 Posted June 17, 2019 at 04:21 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 04:21 PM Imo the string section is one of the best parts of old show. The arrangements were spot on as was the vibe. I just never want to hear the prince medley or YTV ever again or see the Turquoise monstrosity ever again Part of the reason I refused to see the end of the "Celine" residency was due to YTV. 1 Quote "Celine": The Colosseum: August 7, 2011Celine Dion: Courage World Tour -- Milwaukee, WI -- November 3, 2019

Especially if you can still end up standing at the 15th row or further. For access to the VIP bar thing, the first section with priority entry and being as close as possible... not to mention that not only does it cover Celine, but also to see two other big acts along with her.... its not like its just a tour set up Quote

I'd gladly pay €400 if I know I'll be in 1st or 2nd row.But to not know your place, having to wait the whole day (possibly in the rain), having to endure a few other acts before Céline, don't know if it's a modified Vegas show or a completely different show and pay that amount of money (and I haven't even mentioned the traveling costs), I'm sorry but that's a bit too much, especially if you can't really miss the money.

None of that changes the fact that the cost of a festival ticket is cheaper thanVegas or Tour. Quote
AdrienneM Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:13 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:13 PM €400 couldnt even get you first 20 rows in vegas let alone on the US shows. And you do. If you go to a festival youre not just going for the headliner but for the other acts too, otherwise there would be no point in going because you would have to sit through 2 hours of their performance anyway... and even if it is a modified vegas show, its a festival such a vibe, and probably also TT and FOMO, which is for me, reason enough 1 Quote

scielle Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:20 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:20 PM Moral of the story: Go to Quebec.If I recall correctly, top-priced seats for the 2016 Montreal shows were C$220, so about US$170.I distinctly remember paying no more than this and that was for first few rows, no VIP anything. (Not to mention these are always special shows because of the hometown crowd.) 4 Quote
Shamrock_1982 Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:29 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 06:29 PM (edited) Yeah me too, I sat front row centre in Vegas a few times and paid less than the diamond tickets at this thing, that was during A new day mind you when the world was cheaper, lol!!!

Chantemoi Posted June 17, 2019 at 07:30 PM Posted June 17, 2019 at 07:30 PM Part of the reason I refused to see the end of the "Celine" residency was due to YTV. That was one of the only songs she performed when I went last month that had any real energy to it! It’s not my favourite, but at least she seemed like she was having fun. 1 Quote

I got Front Orchestra tickets for $280 each the week before “Céline” ended. Yes, it was a Tuesday night, but I still think it was an amazing deal - and we were so close, especially during the mosh pit songs! Nosebleeds for the “Courage” tour are more expensive than that!!! 1 Quote

Exactly my point, normally shes far more expensive for worse seating world wide, BST is not a surprise for me. And sorry, but considering tickets for the entire last run in Front Orch were $350 PLUS, most dates in June breaking $800-1000, i struggle to believe that Edited June 17, 2019 at 08:24 PM by AdrienneM Quote

And in the end it's all about your own preference and personal choices: you may want to pay that much money for it, I don't... it's as simple as that Europe in general for her tickets is so different to the US in terms of price, thats a known fact so it doesnt really count, and this one off show, in which you cant seem to understand that youre not only paying for Celine, youre paying for lots of extras too, hence the price. I can guarantee that when you went to vegas it was before the price surge in 2018, cause front orch since then has been $300+ no question, infact, comparing Vegas 2007 at prices of $320 to this year at $1200 explains my point whole heartedly. In most places $300 wont even get you on the floor for the courage tour... Anyway, completely off topic rant, im just hoping for a new wardrobe and at least 4 or 5 different songs in the set 1 Quote

You can't seem to understand that I'm not willing to do that, hence my choice. Plus Shania Twain gave a huge gig in Hyde Park too 2 years ago (for BBC Radio 2 in the Park with plenty of other acts) and the most expensive price was about 70 pounds (this is purely an example, no need to come up with how she's not Céline etc. etc.). My friends paid that and they were able to stand front row. So it doesn't only have to do with the reasons you give. You also pay for the name Céline.

And yeah it kind of does, Celine Dion and Josh Groban and Claire Richards and Priority entry etc.... worth alot more then Shania Twain but hey hoh who cares, i just want to hear TT again, arguing about this is pointless cause at the end of the day neither of us a43 going so...

ehild Posted June 18, 2019 at 03:41 PM Posted June 18, 2019 at 03:41 PM Wow!! I will always buy on presale from now on. My Vegas tickets were $250 / $350 each ticket for the final 2 shows. My lower level tour ticket near a side stage was only $225 ( I think?? Hard to keep it all straight....) I can't even fathom thousands or upper hundreds. I really hate Ticketmaster and their price gouging. 3 Quote ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life. Let it be your passion, let it bring you pleasure, but don't let it become your identity.

The prices for seats spiked after Memorial Day I paid 250 dollars + tax on May 29 in the front orquestra row LL (12th) and i had the opportunity to be on stage during the Price medley and the LCMM/RDMH medley. No one in front of me, just Celine. I'm going to London but i bought the golden ticket (200€) and to Montreal (2nd row but no chair in front of me so it's like a front row 375€).

celinesounds Posted June 18, 2019 at 07:11 PM Posted June 18, 2019 at 07:11 PM Will Celine be in Paris for a while before this concert? a new french album is on the horizon Quote #FREEJAVITO
CSCfan Posted June 18, 2019 at 08:50 PM Posted June 18, 2019 at 08:50 PM (edited) Will Celine be in Paris for a while before this concert? a new french album is on the horizon She has said she would be shooting with L'oreal in Paris in June, and PFW's Haute Couture portion is between June 30 - July 4, so it's safe to assume she'll be in Paris before going to London. I'd doubt though she'll do anything for a future French album in the next while.

noyau Posted June 19, 2019 at 07:11 AM Posted June 19, 2019 at 07:11 AM Heyyy guys/girls !!!Finally I am pretty sure that I will go on my own to London. But I have an extra ticket for diamond circle. I want to do something special..... I want to "offer" the ticket to a fan who was not rich enough to buy the diamond one, who has a "gold" or less "pricy" ticket... And who goes on her/his own to the show of course (as I have only one extra ticket).So if you want to take part to this special lottery, write me a private message. If I find nobody in this case, I will sell my ticket in London.But... It is not SURE AT 100% that I will have this extra ticket, so I will only tell you maybe 3 or 4 days before the show. I don't want to tell someone "yes you will have my ticket" and after that a close friend of mine beg me to have this ticket, and I have to say "no"... (I hope you understand my bad English. French speaking people will have more luck to have my ticket ahah). 4 Quote ***I speak French, sorry for my mistakes in English.
