Wow, row 2? Might be worth it to get All Event tickets then...plus, a lot of the other tickets are easy to sell (maybe for cheap), if that's allowed.

Yes, actually, on both sides (on the left side even in the center block). 

On the short sides, both not-center blocks are suspiciously devoid of any all-event tickets at this point in time, while the center blocks have a lot for sale still. I think those not-center (but also not in the corner, so pretty good) blocks haven't had any ticket sales yet and are being kept for single sessions. Same goes for the two blocks on each end of the long side opposite the judges. 

But if you go to the ticket page, you can also see that there are TONS of seats in the center blocks on the shorts side, as well as the side opposite the judges, haven't been sold yet (all-event seats). I'd say it's a fair assumption those will eventually open up for single sessions, too, otherwise it's gonna be a very empty arena! Heck, there are even some really good seats on the judges side available still. 

 

I don't know about reselling tickets, but it should be possible. Back when I booked, however, they only offered pick up at the ticket booth, so I don't have my tickets yet, which makes it a little difficult to resell. You'd need to trust the seller to actually be on location and meet you to hand over the ticket...

An article was published this morning on an Italian newspaper saying that Milano Worlds 2018 have already sold over 25.000 tickets and the sales for single tickets will start in two weeks.

Beginning of October huh 

 

I had a nightmare last night and dreamed that tickets for Worlds were sold out and I was too late lol

That's a pretty cool video.

 

They should make the gala like a fashion parade lol that could be fun!

 

As for two weeks... it could be worse, I guess. I'll be setting aside some 900 euros, for tickets - though they shouldn't add up to even half that much, it's better to have some extra - while planning for Japan, but it sucks... I was hoping to get that out of the way before I had to arrange finances for the Japan trip >_<

Yikes... what are you planning on buying, exactly? You can buy some of the best seats as all-event tickets for that money! Okay, maybe not the best-best, but Gold-ish... with fashion or superdeluxe gourmet meals or...?

Best seats men, gala and practices lol I'm using the best seats all-event tickets as a benchmark just to be super extra safe. (And also because I have no real idea what to expect lol) And well, it'll be good to have money left in my account after that lol (Also... in case men tickets sell out, I might just get desperate >_>)

Ah, I see. It would really be nice if we had some idea of what seats will be available as single session seats. I have no memory of that with the Helsinki ticket sales, like if for instance they open up seats for single sessions that are currently still reserved for all-event tickets. Because there sure are good seats available still!

I think the 25,000 was quoted in that on-line article a few days ago, too (I'm sure I read some Italian article the other day, lol) and at the time I thought that was really impressive, but now that I've given it some thought... is that actually really good? Because that's 25.000 tickets total, and we've only had all-events tickets go on sale. So that's eight events plus gala = 9, and that is assuming they don't count the 6 or so practice session tickets that were included with the first batch of all-events tickets, which they probably do. So at best that's 25000 / 9 = 2778 people who've bought all-event tickets, and assuming they do count the practice tickets, I'd say 2,000 or even less is a far better estimate. Not sure how many seats the Forum has, but probably a lot more than that... Go on folks, buy those single session seats!!

According to Wikipedia, the arena has a seating capacity of 12.700, so I'm fairly certain that they're talking about how many individual event tickets have been sold. So one of those fashion/gourmet tickets would count as 9 tickets sold, one of those super VIP packages / a regular all-event ticket including practices... I don't even remember how many tickets that included. 15? 17? And I think they sold more of the regular all-event tickets than they did of the fashion/food kind. So if we split the difference and assume an average of 12 tickets per all-event package, then we're down to roughly 2.000 seats that have been sold so far.

I'm with you. Makes me wonder how many people are waiting for Men's single sessions / knowledge about Yuzu showing up or not. Fan or not, it's difficult to deny that he sells lots of tickets. For the sake of the organization (if not our own), I hope he comes!

I'm so scared... I've no idea of how to buy tickets, and what seats to chose. I want them to sell those tickets once for all, but at the same time, I really don't know what I'll have to do when it happens.

just hope for everyone of us to find tickets and have good seats and be happy

If it eases your mind, why not just have a look around the tickets website already? You can look at the arena, there is a seating map so you can click on seats etc., and see how the ticketing system works. As long as you don't actually put in your cc details, you're fine.  It's really not scary. I mean, scary is trying to get tickets for anything in Japan. But this is Europe, and it's a decent ticketing system. No stuff like lotteries and more lotteries and oh look, more lotteries. ;-)

Did anyone use that system before? I tried it with the all events tickets to see how it works and it sends me to the payment details straight after I choose a seat. Will it be the same for individual event tickets or will I be able to put all my tickets in the cart and pay afterwards?

 

Any tips please
