Arctic Monkeys have announced a second Manchester date as part of their new 2023 tour following huge demand. Fans who had pre-ordered their new album, The Car, were able to get tickets this morning (September 29) but many were left disappointed following a quick sell-out.
See Tickets hosted the pre-sale event from 9am on Thursday and there were online waiting rooms which held many fans for up to an hour because of demand. Ticket prices started from £72.50 for the Old Trafford gig.
The Sheffield band have said they will now perform a second night at Emirates Old Trafford ground on June 3, 2023. It means those who couldn't secure tickets for the original show on June 2 will now have another chance on Friday, September 30 for the general sale. Ticketmaster and See Tickets will go live with tickets from 9am tomorrow.
