Sometimes there is a password revealed at the last minute, sometimes there is not (i.e., just a link). The other unknown issue at this point regarding the presales is the ticket purchase limits. I think in the past it has been as little as 2 tickets for certain concerts, but up to 6 for some others.

I had also wondered if Halifax might squeak in, but it did seem unlikely given the large scale of the venues played during most of the tour. I suppose the Maritimes were so thoroughly spoiled in 2008 with several small (even very small) venues that the experience can no longer be repeated--truly once in a lifetime...

Hi, does anybody know if there is a low budget US or Canadian airline that operates between Detroit & Montreal. I'm thinking of going to both shows. :?:

Clarification request:

Does this mean that during those Pre-Sale date designations we can purchase ANY of the venue tickets?

I've [quickly] reviewed what's in the four threads, and nothing is jumping out at me that suggests otherwise.
Did I miss it, though?

Thanks!

Each venue will have an individual password. Also note that all tickets will be Will Call.

Will they ALL go on sale at the same time, though, Jarkko?

Good question! It would be great if Montreal and Toronto did not go on sale at the same time :!: ;-)

Anyone who has ever ordered from Evenko, I'd appreciate any tips please :)

The info says the presales all start at 10 am, so if they are in the same time zone (e.g. Ontario and Quebec), they will go on sale at the same time. Good luck multi-tasking to those of you who plan to attend more than one concert!

What is meant by "exclusive time"?

This means that only the Forum presale will be going on at that time. After that time, other presales will be starting, although the Forum presale will continue until the regular ticket sale begins or our ticket allocation is exhausted.

We will have three presales. Presales A and C both have four time zones EDT, CDT, MDT/CST, PDT included - so there will be four starts. All venues located in the same zone will open simultaneously.
Every venue will have an individual link and password. You may buy tickets to any, and to as many as you want. There will be ticket limits per concert (number not yet confirmed).

You should practice buying tickets for a concert currently on sale at the Bell Centre. Assuming their process hasn't changed in the last year, the Evenko site operates very differently from the Ticketmaster site. Just before the concerts first go on sale, you are placed in a virtual waiting room. When the sale starts, you are randomly drawn out of the waiting room and given a chance to buy tickets. You can reject your ticket allocations twice if you don't like what is being offered to you (i.e. you are given 3 chances before you are sent back into the waiting room, at which point you have to wait until you are randomly drawn out again). Evenko does not allow you to keep a permanent account, but you can provide your personal details while in the waiting room in the minutes before the tickets actually go on sale.
