MADRID, December 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

• U2 fan club members already buying tickets 
• Prices ranging from 30€ to 170€ 

Whether in crisis or not, sometimes there are shows we just don't want to miss. This is certainly the case with U2's upcoming "Innocence and Experience" tour. With an overabundance of fans dying to see the band perform live, securing a ticket will be quite the challenge. Their last tour alone sold a total of 7.2 million tickets around the world.

The expectation achieved by U2's announcement reminds us a lot of the last Rolling Stones tour which sold out in every venue in a matter of days or even hours. Although the resale gives fans a better chance of securing tickets, according to the online marketplace Ticketbis, the average price for a Rolling Stones ticket on the secondary market was 253€ ($310).

We should all expect to relive this phenomenon with U2´s upcoming concerts. Since yesterday fan club members have had access to presales and these have already sold out in several locations. Fortunately, subscribers to the U2 website still have the opportunity to participate in a second presale today. The first presale was only available for those who had already subscribed to their site prior to the announcement of the tour.

The second important date for fans wishing to secure tickets will be this upcoming Monday, 8th of December, which is when tickets go on sale worldwide, with the exception of Spain where they'll go on sale the following day. In total, 44 concerts have been confirmed in Europe and the US with seats ranging from as little as 30€ to around 170€.

For those who want to pass on the online queue or that have no idea what they'll be doing six months from now, the secondary market will be an option too. Average price for U2's 360º tour was 147€ ($180) in Ticketbis. However, prices range heavily and tickets were available for as cheap as 30€ ($37) on the resale market.
