That’s crazy. Nope. I’m out. I was anticipating £80-100. I was budgeting for £120 but no, that’s just ridiculous

Crazy prices indeed! Probably because the concerts are at the Royal Opera House or maybe they just have to compensate the loss they will probably make from the Dreamworld screenings? :lol:

That’s ridiculous. I bought my parents tickets for Oklahoma at the Colliseum six or so years back and they were 120 ish each iirc which I was slightly shocked by . But I’m sure the Inner Sanctum ROH ticket I bought, good seat as well, was about £85. I’m sure it wasn’t over £100. Ah well saves me pre ordering the album off the official store with its high shipping charges
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

Truly it’s mad … and 5 nights to fill

Just checked the seats I bought last time …. Stalls Circle Right at 75 quid a pop. Now 250 for the same.

I get it … it’s been 8 years or so and inflation and all that … but I’m still reeling

I guess it's payment for new Parlophone deal?

Hoping - but doubt - they’ll have a string section playing with them

Question: are the seats in the orchestra on an incline or are they flat? Going with my short daughter and don’t want to repeat the mistake of getting seats at Wembley. She couldn’t see a thing. Thanks

A string section would be ideal.

Also, I’m thinking will the full Dreamworld production actually fit in the ROH? Or will the screens be minimalised?

Hi! I went to the ROH for Inner Sanctum in 2016 and twice 2018 (2018 - once on the first “balcony” and once on the floor) and would suggest opting for the first “balcony” above the floor if you’re with someone young and small. The floor has an excellent vibe but people will be standing up and dancing.

Take a look at the seat map that Dog posted just to the top of this page of the thread. You can click on a seat and see a pic of the view 👍
More strobes and BANGING, please!

Orchestra seats are flat. Go for one of the balcony sections. It’s all crazy prices though so suspect it’ll not sell out immediately. They’ll sell out because enough people have disposable income but for the most of us upwards of £160 for a single ticket for a show that we’ve all seen already? Nah. Concert pricing has got stupid.

Just checked my 2016 ticket. £85. Same section for this gig? £250. I’d expect a 50% hike but 200%? Jeez.

£250?! That's, erm, ambitious.
Prick up your ears.

The Seat Map shows some reasonably priced Seats. Still, the Stall prices have been doubled.
