Ticketmaster issues Judas Priest ticket warning for 2024 UK tour

Ticketmaster has announced the ticket rules for Judas Priest fans as tickets for the legendary heavy metal band go on sale tomorrow (Friday 5 May).

The group has announced a first tour in decades and will visit Glasgow, Leeds, Bournemouth, London, Dublin and home city Birmingham in 2024. They were originally set to tour the UK alongside Ozzy Osbourne but were forced to cancel due to the Black Sabbath singer's health.

Tickets for the shows will go on sale at 10am on Friday 5 May on Ticketmaster here.

The six arena show will form part of the worldwide Metal Masters Tour and will include special guests Saxon and Uriah Heep at the shows. Announcing the tour this week, Judas Priest said: 'We are thrilled to start this world tour in the renowned traditional homes of heavy metal and can't wait to see our amazing family of Priest maniacs!'

Ticketmaster has warned fans who wish to buy tickets for the London leg of the tour at the OVO Arena they will have to study the seating map if they struggle with steps or are uncomfortable with heights.

It says: " Block E represents the East Terrace. Higher rows may not be suitable for patrons who cannot manage steps or who are unhappy with heights. Blocks N and S are within the tiered, side seating of the Arena. Even numbered bays (i.e. N6) are in the lower tier; odd numbered bays (i.e. N7) will be in the upper tier. Upper Tier seats are not suitable for those who cannot manage steps and the higher rows are not suitable for those who are unhappy with heights."
