Seating Plans in France

Post by hydriot »

Can anyone provide links to the seating plans for the French venues? I am wondering about Lille or Caen, but cannot interpret the seats I am being offered.

The show is definitely not sold out and there are several reliable websites you could try for tickets:

http://www.gdp.fr
http://www.ticketnet.fr
http://www.fnac.com
http://www.spectacles.carrefour.fr

Good luck!

Dear Wendy,

Thank you so much, 'ticketnet.fr' worked out just fine.
You definetely saved my day! Heck, you saved the whole bl***y year!
Thanks a million, I hope these links help others too, 'gdp.fr' was still broke for the evening.

All the best!
Christian

At Lille, I was offered row 3 in the centre block by Drouet, but they are a hopeless bunch, and I recommend avoiding them: no seating plan at all (I only found what was being offered by going to another seller's site) and they were saying I had to pick up the ticket at the venue an hour before the concert. No way was I going all the way to France without that ticket in my pocket!

So I booked through fnac, who seem an altogether more organised business. They offered me row 7 in the P2 block (in line with Javier Maas, which will make a change since I am usually in front of the Webb Sisters) and showed its location with a friendly flashing red dot. I decided there's not a huge difference between row 3 and row 7, and since fnac lets me print my own ticket, I went with them.

Thank you so much Marine, PeSwijngedouw and Hydriot, you really helped a lot.
I didn`t get the beautiful seats after all, because after I read your advices this morning the site of the Billetterie was out of reach all day. I tried fnac.fr and got far untill they were going extremely difficult with passwords, cardnumbers etc. It takes a lot of time and patience but o well, a rainy sunday and it was worth it: fnac.be was an easy alternative and places P2, rang 10... well, its not rang 3 but still: I`m so happy I will be there, march 3th. Thank you all for your help!!!
