Foo Fighters tickets on resale site for hugely increased prices as Cardiff gig sells out

Foo Fighters tickets went on sale early on Friday June 30, and within minutes fans were in a 2000+ -strong queue and getting 'no availability' for the 2024 gig in Cardiff. Then the inevitable happened and tickets were appearing on resale sites at a huge price increase over face value.

With thousands of fans desperate to see Dave Grohl and co at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, the 70,000+ capacity venue still isn't enough to sate the appetite and house every fan who hoped to get a chance to see their rock heroes. Within minutes of the Everything or Nothing At All tour tickets going on sale there were tickets popping up on resale site Viagogo.

While the website is updating by the minute, we found general sale tickets on sale for more than £200 over face value price. The ticket is being sold for £283 and face value (eg without any fees added) is £75.

Presale for the Cardiff dates was on Wednesday ahead of today's general tickets sale. It was also announced that Wet Leg, who played before the Harry Styles gigs in Cardiff last week, will be the support act while the opening act is Cardiff rock band Himalayas..
