This show was sold out within minutes going on sale and you could NOT get a ticket anywhere, even at the venue. I really am starting to doubt these billboard reports..

[HolidayGuy]

^NO show is ever sold out within minutes of going on sale- and that's because only a certain number of tickets are put up for sale initially. As time goes by, more tickets are put up for sale- and, of course, broker sites advertise loads of tickets for weeks on end leading up to an event. RE the venue- even if a show isn't sold out, I don't think venues sell tickets for big-name acts at the time of a show. There may be scalpers outside the venue, of course.

Thanks for posting the info.

I'm not following. You mean if the seating for the concert has 10k tickets, the ticket office intentionally don't put all on sale the first day? why? It doesn't make sense. That's the first time I heard this. Don't the news always say this or that tour sold out in minutes, days or sth like that? I know sometimes they suddenly have some tickets open for sale again for a sold out concert, that's because sometimes they rearrange the seating plan, adding more rows. or open another section of the venue. And they usually do that when it's close to the date of the concert for some reason. Not many people know, so that could be the reason that result in a not complete sold out report.

[HolidayGuy]

Yes, the media likes to report "instant sell-outs" and such- what they don't add to their report is that only a certain number of tickets is put on sale to the public when tickets first go on sale.

Not sure exactly why they do that- there are always tickets set aside for radio promotions, people tied to an act, those sorts of things- and, especially nowadays, sites like StubHub.

Think about it, though- if ALL tickets went on sale simultaneously, for some acts, it would be a near riot. ha This way, tickets become available gradually leading up to an event. When you see people sleeping overnight, lined up for days to get tickets- ones far up in line should get tickets,but then after a certain number, the box office reaches a cutoff point and says, "The show is sold out." When, in actuality, it isn't.

[tsw2008]

Thanks for the numbers ! :) and I can co sign under what HolidayGuy is saying re ticket sales.

Nice numbers for the Country Gals(Taylor, Carrie, Kellie).
Taylor's tour is really doing well :)

[treme]

I'm sorry, but over 200 tickets left is just beyond my mind. Even retail sellers need to release their option for tickets in this kind of shows.
There never were new seats released for this show, except some with bad view(behind the stage).
Those also were gone in minutes. I know since I wanted to go to this concert and visited tickets offices every day 3 days before the show!

When, in actuality, it isn't.

I think Holiday guy nailed it right on the head. When a show is announced and tickets are put on sale, a large number of those tickets are sold to brokers and independent ticket agents first, even before the public has a crack at it.

When a show is reported as a sellout, it means that all the publicly available tickets are sold through the box office. There are loads of tickets that float around at these broker/dealers and are often unsold or resold at 2-3x face value.

Also, Billboard reports on attendance, i.e. the physical number of people that wen't through the gate, not the amount of tickets sold.

[rosemoor]

Also, Billboard reports on attendance, i.e. the physical number of people that wen't through the gate, not the amount of tickets sold.

Really? impossible. They don't scan the ticket electronically at every concert, there is no way for anybody to know exactly how many actually go through the gate.

Not sure exactly why they do that- there are always tickets set aside for radio promotions, people tied to an act, those sorts of things- and, especially nowadays, sites like StubHub.

That part is expected for every concert. and those actually are some of the sources for the tickets put on sale on the secondary markets before the general public sale. But for the rest of the tickets open for sale to the public, they are all available for sale on the same day. Sometimes they do put limit on different outlet though, just like the way they do to the presales.

I think you're wrong there I'm almost 100% certain it's ticket sales, attendance based on ticket sales. Once a sale is made it doesn't matter if a person shows up or not, Billboard counts it.

I've seen shows reported as sellouts yet there were many tickets available on ebay and remained unsold due to scalpers asking too much so I'm pretty sure it's ticket sales.

[tsw2008]

There goes the answer, ticket sales it is:

The Billboard Boxscore charts provide a glimpse of the concert touring industry by tracking box-office ticket sales throughout the world and ranking the year's top grossing tours, concert venues, promoters and events.

www.allbusiness.com/retail-trade/miscellaneous-retail-retail-stores-not/4644883-1.html

[americanjesus]

My apologies, I missed that part. I talked to a guy over at Billboard, and he confirmed it.

To quote: "Our attendance figure is actually the number of sold tickets. We don’t track comps or exactly how many went through the gate – just how many tickets were sold."

[Name Withheld]

Sorry about that guys.

[tsw2008]

no need to apologize for anything :) I wasn't sure myself to be honest and that prompted me to do research and find out

Please keep posting the numbers weekly if you can, much appreciated
