Avoid Scalpers, Promoters Limit Ed Sheeran Concert Ticket Purchases

Kapanlagi.com - After successfully holding his first concert in Indonesia in 2019, Ed Sheeran will return to the country to greet his fans. Specifically on March 2, 2024, the British singer will perform at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium in a concert titled (+ - = ÷ x) or Mathematics Tour.

In order to maintain the comfort of prospective ticket buyers, the promoter has implemented limitations on ticket purchases. Only one identity is allowed to purchase a maximum of 6 tickets.

Not only that, during the concert day, there will be an identity verification for ticket buyers.

"So for the concert, from the ticketing side, it will be very strict because there will be restrictions. One transaction can only purchase 6 tickets and data adjustment will be done on the day of the event," said Harry Sudarma, Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer of PK Entertainment, when contacted by phone on Friday (20/10).

"So the buyer's identity must be the same if the purchase is more than one, they all have to come together," he added.

2. Pay Attention to Fan Safety

This is done because Ed Sheeran himself pays great attention to the safety of fans who will buy his concert tickets.

"We need to inform potential ticket buyers because Ed is very aware of the issue of secondary ticketing or ticket scalping," he said.

For information, Ed Sheeran's concert tickets in Jakarta will start selling on October 30, 2023, at 10:00 AM WIB until November 1, 2023, at 9:59 AM WIB, through the website edsheeraninjakarta.com for UOB cardholders. Meanwhile, general ticket sales will start on November 2, 2023, at 10:00 AM WIB.
