Daily Mail is so trash :rip: Dragging 6 shows having MAYBE 200 seats left over a year from the actual shows :rip:

The way any other pop girl would get skulldragged for those prices. Not everyone opts out of dynamic pricing I guess

Dua (a UK act) performing marginally better than Billie's tour dates in the UK that will take place a year from now isn't the flex you expected it to be...

mind you Birds of a Feather (an album track) is outstreaming the entirety of Radical Optimism. It's not a mystery who is bigger.

And ? Dua is still bigger than Billie in the UK it's not even comparable, Billie is still booking the same arenas as Dua lipa did years ago :rip:

 

 

anyway meanwhile even thee Taylor didn't overprice her tickets

 

Last month Swift, 34, took her UK Eras tour to Scotland, Wales, London and Liverpool with ticket prices ranging between £58.65 and £194.75, with the average standing ticket setting punters back a hefty £175.

The prices are crazy but they will still sell out, it's a year away. But I really don't think OP wants to compare tour dates/gross of Dua with Billie cuz.....:rip:

Weren't Taylor and Beyoncé's prices similar and they weren't dragged. 

 

At least with them it makes more sense due to their legacy and status though. It's ridiculous how you have newer acts like Billie and apparently Sabrina (wtf) charging such prices when years ago only artists on Madonna's level had really high ticket prices smh.

Umm wow, there's absolutely no reason Billie's tickets should be £100 more expensive than Taylor's, that's a joke. :deadbanana4:

Dua doesn't have a single album that's bigger than WWAFA in the UK (or the world) and Billie will have more multi-platinum albums in the UK than Dua will. Youngest headliner ever at Glastonbury and sold out six O2 arena shows on her last tour while Dua had only two. She made $10M off of those six shows alone which is more than FN's entire UK gross:rip:

i really want to go as this new album turned me from a hater into a stan but i'm so not paying 300 for an arena show wtf

DailyMail doing the most as per usual. These dates will sell out easily once it's closer to the shows in a year. :rip: Although I agree prices are insane. I wanna see Billie live but I'm waiting closer to the show since ticket prices are crazy.

Time is OK for a current kii but she will seel them out at one point. 

 

The prices are indeed outrageous.

Just cuz an artist is streamed a lot doesn't necessarily mean they can sell out concerts, especially when their streams are probably inflated through bot farms anyway :coffee2:

She is gonna be sold out, I mean, she has 1 year to do it. Not everyone is Taylor Swift or Dua Lipa in the UK to sell out their shows in minutes.

Ma'am, some songs from Radical Optimism didn't cross 10M streams yet, please don't set Dua up like that :deadbanana2:

OP didn't even do basic fact checking before setting themselves up to look a mess.

 

The tickets left ONE YEAR before the shows start in July 2025.

Exactly. There's a few rows left in each show, and they are literally a year away.
To make it sound like she couldn't sell her tour is just ridiculous.

Those Uk prices are steep yes (and its probably the only reason it hasn't sold out completely yet) but these are leftover tickets ofc the ones left are the pricier ones and some are resale. And ticketmaster is using the dynamic pricing which is shitty. People who bough in the pre-sale and first Sales were able to buy them between 80 and 150 pounds I think. I bough mine for Barcelona in the 100's section very central (great view hopefully) and payed 300 euros (w fees and insurance) for 2 tickets which is not cheap ofc but is also not insane. I'm waiting to see her since I last saw her in 2019 so I was prepared to pay but ofc I had cheaper options too.

She sold out almost immediately the rest of the Europe tour dates and the Australia Tour (and this was before the album was out).
In the US there's like 3 shows (MN and NE) that have few tickets left, the rest is sold out. 
 

Also her stage is central floor that means she is selling the entire capacity of the arena.

Fans are begging for more dates/countries actually because many couldn't buy tickets.

I feel that the shows are almost sold out already and they are supposed to be in July 2025.

 

And the tickets are not that expensive!! 

 

Looking forward to see her live again! Her energy in unmatched! BOAF would sound amazing live :weeps:

The shows are happening in July 2025, that's 12 months of selling tickets. 6 dates with center stage at the O2 Arena is 120.000 tickets. The tour is doing amazingly great.

The way you can tell a swiftie wrote or paid someone to write this article just by the way they started talking about the eras tour out of nowhere in the middle of the article...

 

Anyway, Billie has already sold out 6 dates at the O2 with the hte tour and she will clearly sell out this time too, the remaining tickets will sell out eventually. Olivia Rodrigo still had a lot of VIP tickets available days before her shows in Europe and no one said anything, it's normal not to sell everything at once, especially when prices are a little expensive.
