Furious fans of Dua Lipa have slammed the organisation around sales of her tour tickets after they struggled to book for the shows. The singer is heading on the road in 2024/2025 for her Radical Optimism tour with the scheduled live dates seeing her perform around the world starting in Singapore this November and running through to October 2025. She shared her excitement at the tour on Instagram as she wrote: "WUUUURLTOOOOUR IS ON SALE NOW!!! + we added some more shows for ya during the presale! so happy.
..I COULD POP!" But the excitement was dampened for many of her fans who fell foul of the Ticketmaster demand struggle, experiencing lengthy queues, inflated prices and the site crashing before their purchase could be completed.
Fans were then left furious at the speed tickets were uploaded for resale at boosted prices. Dismayed fans then took to social media to criticise the negative experience as one wrote: "This is a broken system As a music fan, I’m discouraged." Another scathed: "Not even 5 minutes into the general sale for Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism Tour and most of the tickets are already listed for resale more than double the price?? What the f*** Ticketmaster.
" A fourth commented: "Was literally 7000th in the queue for dua lipa tickets and got nothing! presale obviously got all the tickets, what a joke." While a fifth fumed: "This aint right. tickets just went on sale about a minute ago and we're already seeing resale tickets? @DUALIPA fix this.
" Another outraged fan posted: "Ticketmaster telling me tickets are available to Dua Lipa less than 24 hrs after a botched presale only for it to be souped up resale prices is cruel. @Ticketmaster I’m actually upset." The Radical Optimism tour will run for a staggering 68 dates worldwide with fans hoping promise more dates may be announced in the near future.
It comes after Dua recently admitted in a candid chat with Anderson Cooper on '60 Minutes', that she prefers to keep things close to her chest rather than use her personal life to gain attention, saying: "It's something that I just naturally hold back." She pointed out that some artists are quite "ruthless" when it comes to airing their dirty laundry in their music, knowing full well it'll snag the public's eye: "Some people are just so ruthless with their own private life that they decide to put it all out in a song because they know that it's gonna attract people's attention." The 'Houdini' chart-topper stressed the importance of creating beloved music, not because she's throwing shade at someone: "For me, it was always important to make music that people really loved, not because I was putting someone out on blast.
" She's not about the "clickbait" or exploiting others for fame: "Not because I'm doing it for the clickbait at maybe someone else's expense." Follow Mirror Celebs on Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads ..
