in an amazing time record of less than 24 hours,all the 47000 tickets to the israeli concert has been sold out.

It only proves how ardent a fan we are. A sold out concert in such a huge stadium. Perhaps an additional concert can be arranged? That would be just superb.

the israeli media already asked the producer if there will be another concert due to this phenomenal record of
all tickets sold out in only 19 hours,but he denies it.
i think that there must be another concert for those who havn't got tickets for the first concert.

Wikipedia gives the Ramat Gan stadium at 41,583 seats. Can they really seat 30,000+ people on the grass?
Just curious.

Wikipedia isn't always right but you would never fit 30,000 on any pitch in the world. Here in Ireland at our Croke Park stadium we have a massive pitch, almost double the average size of a soccer pitch & for safety reasons there is a cap at 10,000. Anyway be it 50,000 or 74,000 that is pretty impressive ticket sales. Hat off to our Leonard

yeah sold out indeed... I'm actually worried for a few of my friends who couldn't get tickets. I hope there will be a second show.

Wow, that was fast... Record-breaking time! Well done, Israeli fans of the man!

Incredible.. This is going to be a hell of a concert and hopefully with there right pressure in the right places maybe even a second concert.

Forum members (Israeli and from the rest of the world), let us know where you're going to be seated. It would be nice to spot some fans during the hisoric concert.
I'll be on Grass 1 row 19 seat 93 and still hoping to be upgraded to the vip rows but we'll see about that.
By the way, there are rumors about an after concert meeting for a few Israeli artist with Mr. Cohen. If I manage to get there I'll give a detailed update.

Congrats to all of you who managed to get tickets!

unfortunately,there won't be a second show.
the producer said that although the amazing record of all 47000 tickets sold out in 19 hours,there won't be a second show.

Many Israeli fans didn't have the time to buy a ticket.
We are all whishing for a second show!
I'm waiting for this so much time!!!
so sad...

Leonard actually sold faster then Madonna... apparently the insane hype worked.

I still think it is somewhat of a duty of the producers to add another show... many people stayed without a ticket... and since it's the last show of the leg, there's no schedule problems...

i think that there should be a massive pressure on the producers to schedule one more concert and
move it to park hayarkon,so that more fans could come and get a second chance to see leonard live in israel.

There will be no second show, the tour will take a break after Sept 24, before the last leg in US

I understand they'll want/need a break before the last leg of the World Tour, but still I wonder... Dublin had 4 concerts, why not schedule at least 2 concerts in Israel? Since they'll already be there and seeing the demand for tickets...

Anyway, my 74-year old mother almost gave up hope after dialling for hours on end but she finally managed to get tickets in the pre-sale. She would have never been able to get them in the regular sale, so thank you Jarkko and all those involved, on behalf of my family! They'll finally get to experience what I've been raving about since I first went to the Amsterdam concert over a year ago.

Wow it's amazing to think how quickly the tickets sold out! I'm still in a bit of a daze after managing to get a ticket on Friday morning. Finally a dream come true.
Many thanks to all who organised and were involved in the presale!
