Tickets for Lizzo's Dublin gig were ‘sold out before they even went on sale’
Tickets for Lizzo’s highly-anticipated Dublin gig went on sale this morning but it looks like a majority of fans were not able to secure tickets.
The performer is taking her Cuz I Love You Too tour to Dublin’s Olympia Theatre this November, following an iconic set at Glastonbury.
As the Dublin venue only seats 1,200, a lot of the tickets were snapped up during the presale. This meant only a few hundred remained for this morning’s general sale.
Angry fans took to Twitter convinced that the tickets were “sold out before they went on sale”.
"You told me there were Lizzo tickets available!"

Lizzo seems to have sold out before actually going on sale. I really like her music, but the fact she can bend the space-time continuum is what's truly impressive.

Just landed in Dublin. The whiff of Lizzo sadness hits me when I step on the runway.

It's intense and I know my country is in pain right now.
Sending prayers.
Tickets which were priced from €39.50-€45 are now available through the resale service for three-and-a-half times their original value.
"Official Platinum Tickets"?! That is 1000% NOT a real thing. They never advertised ANY sort of Platinum/VIP tix. @TicketmasterIre just hiding the fact that tickets are being sold for 4x face value even though the resale price is supposed to be what the fan paid. A TOTAL SCAM. pic.twitter.com/ZcYH5TdoTW

Lizzo is currently the number one trend on Irish Twitter followed by Ticketmaster.
