Ticket scalpers have jumped into action
While the allocation for the pre-sales had been sold out, the general sales will commence at 10am tomorrow (17 May) for the Coldplay Music of the Spheres World Tour live in Bukit Jalil this 22 November.
Unfortunately though, as is the case with any major concert events, scalpers have emerged.
These ticket scalpers, who managed to purchase during the pre-sales this morning, have started putting their tickets up for sale on sites such as Carousell.
A cursory check on Carousell showed that the ticket prices ranged from as low as RM50 to as high as RM3,200.
The official ticket prices across different seating categories range between RM228 and RM3,088.

Coldplay fans have asked for a day-two performance to get ahead of the scalpers.
Before you contemplate buying from scalpers, take note that the organiser has stated that reselling your tickets or purchasing from an unauthorised ticket seller or ticket scalper is strictly prohibited and they reserve the right to cancel such tickets without compensation and/or refuse entry to the event.
today’s presale for KL: websites crashed, tickets sold out, scalpers reselling for double the price – genuine fans had zero chance against resellers with mobilized teams. tomorrow’s general sale will be worse! please do a 2nd show
