A lot more expensive than anything we've seen so far...

GC : €260 vs €150/180
GA : €135 vs €80/€90
Sitting/Cat1 : €300
Sitting/Cat2 : €220

I hope it's not that bad in Paris...

As much as I love this band but now they have overstreched it. I remember the first concert I saw from them, I snachted up all my money to see them, I was a school kid then - 20 years ago. Yes there is inflation but Switzerland does not have hyperinflation as far as I am concerned. Do not mix it up with Zimbawbe . Yes Switzerland is an expensive country. I grew up here but this is just a lame excuse to rip people off in terms of these tickets prices.

Nowadays I could afford it easily but I am not willing to pay these prices. I'd rather go for a nice weekend with my wife for the value of this money. The ticket prices are just outrages. I saw Ennio Morricone in the Hallenstadion in the first row (seatted) this year in Zürich. He was there with 160 orchestra members and we paid CHF 150,00 per ticket. Probably the promoter/organiser thinks that there are enough rich idiots in Switzerland to pay these prices. I don't care how much the prices were in other places but this is a rip off.

as a stadium i can recommend the letzigrund. it's quiet small (42'000) and not very high. there are no acoustic problems like in other stadiums and the sound at most shows i saw there was just perfect.

At first I was shocked because of the prices, but then I saw that GC in Vienna (called "Diamond Circle" there) is 399€ and GC in Oslo is 2525 NOK (= 300€). So I actually think the Swiss GC isn't that expensive at 260€. Well, obviously 200€+ for a 2-hour show is ridiculously overpriced, but that's an entirely different story.

They offer quite different kind of packages... anybody an idea what this means?



sjouke

just a warning: the *early entry package* is for normal standig tickets. it seems like there is NO golden circle access with them.

the Tongue Pit Package is a golden circle ticket with early entry to the golden circle and some extra goodies.

golden circle, ronnies side

Golden circle, Keith side For my friends and myself.

Far to be the cheapest, but the easiest tixs ever. Ticketing service started just on time, didn't slow down, after a pair of minutes it was done. I wish it would have been that easy for Berlin...

Yep, for CHF 390 :

EARLY ENTRY - One GA Standing ticket - Dedicated VIP Early Entry check in queue - Early Entry to secure prime location before public doors - One Commemorative VIP Laminate & Matching Lanyard - Bespoke Rolling Stones ticket wallet - Full itinerary sent in advance with everything you need to know - VIP ID Card - sent in advance - On site Event Travel hosts - VIP Emergency contact number on the day of the show The EARLY ENTRY Tickets and further information will be sent to you directly from SLO VIP SERVICES & eventtravel.com several 7 Days before the event by post.

So hopefully you can make it to the GA rail but I can't really see why you'd want that vs a normal GC ticket for CHF369 ?

If you select "Become a member and book tickets now" (they will add CHF49 to your cart) you can order a ticket now but GC is already gone...

Got my Golden Circle tickets in Ticketcorner presale !!!

bought normal tickets. since the stadium is pretty small those tickets are absolutely ok! just really stupid that you can only buy 2 at the moment, need more....

Seems pretty fair to me. I missed Berlin, probably the most interesting venue this tour, and i'm disgusted seeing those hundreds for sale everywhere on ebay, viagogo and other places at insane prices.

This was really an easy one to get tickets... got Golden Circle...

sjouke

2 GA for me..Yeah

Yeah I take it back, GC came up this time, so €300 with the one year membership...

DREAMTIME
$400.00 USD FOR GC PER PERSON WITH FEES!!!!
FOR STANDING?

It is up to you to sit down. Mind you tonguepit in the US was much higher, but correctly much closer to the band.

Yes, but in smaller indoor arenas. I saw people pay $4000.00 USD for a Pit ticket for the PPV show in NJ!!

Do you know if the tickets will allow to take the train all over the country?
that was the case in 2003 and 2006.
It's really hard to park in zurich...

Today I've bought my ticket for the Lisbon concert and tomorrow I will try to get one for the Zurich concert.

Nuff said! I've just bought my GA ticket to this concert!

Yeah!
Golden Circle on Keith's side!

Seems to be that that the server in Switzerland is more stable than the server in Germany was!

Although it makes me wondering why they offer a Pit Package for Zurich? It looks like that there is no Pit there?!

Keep on rollin'

There is just one Golden Circle in Zürich according to the plan, no Keith or Ronnie side.
Still plenty of tickets available.

sjouke

Swiss do have money but don't spend it that way. I have my GA because I don't pay Golden Circle.

Some here say these prizes are shameless so they don't buy.

So all categories are still available.
