Ticketmaster announced the first of many rounds of ticket sales on February 6. Following this much-awaited declaration, fans started gathering money by every means possible. While some broke lifelong piggy banks others made adjustments to monthly budgets for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Another Ticketmaster Blunder

When the day finally arrived the Ticketmaster website simply crashed due to the demand being 800% more than the supply.

Additionally, with every second that the demand for the Tour reached new heights, the ticket prices saw an upwards spiral that almost became too much for the crowds to bear.

This was accompanied by exasperatingly long waiting pages that often led to nowhere leaving fans more disappointed than before.

The Reseller Debacle!

With Ticketmaster letting down Beyonce fans, resellers went to the rescue but with exorbitant costs. While fans were ready to purchase those tickets regardless of the cost, Ticketmaster made every effort to prevent that rather than investing efforts in resolving their website issues.

Ticketmaster Struggles To Stay Afloat

By giving ticket-hungry fans never-ending waiting queues and repetitive technical errors, Ticketmaster deserved the global mockery that came it's way following this failure.

Having dealt with a similar situation not long ago with Taylor Swift Eras Tour tickets, repeating the same mistakes was not expected from a company as significant as Ticketmaster.

Possible Government Intervention

The way Ticketmaster was to handle its ticketing process for the Renaissance Tour was going to determine whether the government was going to interfere in its matters. Judging from these multiple failures, more aggressive government intervention is likely.

After the persistent bad news, any regular group of people would give up. But Beyonce fans don’t take no for an answer, even if it means traveling to unimaginable lengths for their favorite pop star.

How Far Can You Travel For Beyonce?

It is still unclear how this happened, but Beyonce fans have proved their dedication to attending the concert by finding a solution to their problems. It seems like Sweden is a new hot spot for Beyonce fans who were previously unable to secure tickets to the Renaissance concerts at surprisingly cheaper rates.

Why Sweden?

There is no definitive answer to this, nor has Ticketmaster responded to this question. But the Swedish currency is weaker compared to the US Dollar, which could be one reason for the huge price disparity.

Is Sweden Giving A Profitable Deal?

A Beyonce concert for as low as $300! Unbelievable right? But if you’re looking to get the right bang for your buck, this is your chance.

Is Sweden The Only Country Providing This Exciting Opportunity?

Vancouver is yet another city Beyonce fans can target if they’re looking for cheap, hassle-free concert tickets.

Concert Or Vacation?
