ED SHEERAN PLAYED to a packed out Whelan’s last night to 800 lucky fans. Despite rocky start, with over 100 fans turned away as allocation was done first-come-first-served.
We can understand peoples disappointment at receiving an eTicket for the Ed Sheeran show, then to find there were no spaces left.We want you to know that all the ticketing for this event is handled byApplauseStore.com, specialists in television event ticketing, for such shows inc. the likes of the X Factor and Top Gear etc.
They went on to say that “it’s common practice for all TV productions worldwide to oversubscribe as a percentage of people who apply for tickets, simply don’t turn up”, and those turned away were offered guaranteed tickets to another show.
For those who received an official eTicket, it did state in the terms and conditions that the event would be oversubscribed and that wristband allocation would be served on a first come, first served basis and all subject to availability.
For those who couldn’t go, or were turned away, radio station Spin 103.8 held a viewing party in 4 Dame Lane
