Fresh off the successful release of their fifth album, British rockers Coldplay have tickets for their upcoming North America tour on sale throughout the weekend ending December 17, as compiled by TicketNews.
Known for their unique musical styling, Coldplay has become one of the most popular bands of the last ten years. Having sold in excess of 50 million albums worldwide, the recent European leg of their current world tour sold out in minutes. This weekend sees tickets on sale for their upcoming concerts in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago, Seattle, and Boston.
Also among the weekend’s onsales are tickets to several upcoming concerts from alternative rockers Tool. On hiatus for the past several years while band members explored their own personal projects, the group recently announced that they have begun work on a new album. Tickets are on sale this weekend for concerts in Toronto, Tucson, Albuquerque, and Reno.
Continuing the weekend’s concert onsales are tickets to the joint concert tour from Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw. Two of country music’s most popular solo acts, the singers will team up for a North American concert tour. Stops on sale this weekend include shows in Maryland and Cleveland.
Tickets for the upcoming Bamboozle Festival go on sale Saturday. The three day festival in New Jersey, which is celebrating its 10th Anniversary in 2012, has announced that Bon Jovi, blink-182, and the Foo Fighters will be headlining the concert, with additional acts to be announced at a later date.
“Onsales” is a ticketing industry term describing when tickets initially go on sale to the general public. Each week, tickets are released by promoters, venues and others to dozens of events, but the number of tickets available can vary significantly between locations.
