Bruce Springsteen fans’ fury as £150 concert tickets locked behind £800 package
FANS trying to buy £150 Bruce Springsteen tickets early were shocked at having to pay for at least two, plus a hotel room — costing up to £800.
Packages on Ticketmaster, part of Live Nation, included £796 for two front standing tickets and a double room at the four-star Novotel in Liverpool ahead of next June’s gig at Anfield.
Two rear standing tickets in last Thursday’s pre-sale were £754 with a room at the Hilton.
Two plus a night at the Ibis were £732. A pair and a room at the three-star Holiday Inn cost £698.
Ticketmaster was criticised over its “dynamic pricing” for Oasis shows when £135 tickets suddenly shot up to £355.
But a fan of The Boss tweeted: “This tie-in with hotel packages is taking it to another level.”
