Following BIGHIT's announcement of TOMORROW x TOGETHER's 2023 world tour, Act: Sweet Mirage, across Asia and the United States on January 17, rumors regarding VIP tickets and their unreasonable pricing have surfaced on the internet, shocking fans all around.
Though the pre-sale of TXT's tour tickets doesn't start until February 5, fans have uncovered the ticket prices through their Georgia venue, Gas South Arena's website.
While the regular seats come at a reasonable price between $59.50-$199.50, the Soundcheck VIP seats coming up to $510.61 made no sense, according to several fans.
Given that many fans were eagerly looking forward to meeting the TXT members at their upcoming concerts, some have been demotivated by the insanely high ticket prices.
Meanwhile, fans of other K-pop groups also expressed their disbelief at the same, inevitably criticizing both BIGHIT and TOMORROW x TOGETHER for the unreasonable prices.
"That's beyond stupid": Fans in shock at TOMORROW x TOGETHER concert's VIP ticket prices of $510+ that come with further extra fees
TOMORROW x TOGETHER's tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster and Weverse, except for Georgia fans who can purchase from AXS. While fans were already upset with the extremely high ticket prices, the realization that buying tickets during the pre-sale would require further membership purchases left several angry and disappointed.
Check out a few of these tweets below:
However, only fans who are officially not the website's members need to spend on additional purchases before they can get their hands on the already-expensive tickets. Also, given that once the public sale starts, on February 10, tickets are much harder to purchase as they're likely to instantly sell out, and prices can spike up.
Many fans are set to see their idols perform live and are ready to grab TOMORROW x TOGETHER concert tickets regardless of their high prices. However, some MOAs have given up on the thought of attending their concerts since they came on such short notice and they don't have the finances to support the same.
While MOAs are upset about the incredibly high VIP ticket prices, they can't help but make jokes about the situation. Mixed between disbelief, confusion, and frustration, fans continued to flood Twitter with their opinions on the issue as they called out BIGHIT for pushing the rates really high.
