A Guide to buying tickets at Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre at Irvine Meadows in Irvine Californi

Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre/ Irvine Meadows

8808 Irvine Center Drive Irvine CA 92618

949.855.8095

Buying the best tickets for Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Irvine CA is straightforward. The closer you are the better, except for The Pit. Even though being in The Pit is as close as you can get, the sight line isn’t. Try to get seats from around row E in the Orchestra if you want the best. Face values often escalate the closer you get to the stage and few shows have the same ticket price for all seats.

If you can afford face value for Orchestra seats, but don’t get them when the show goes on sale, go to the secondary market. You should be able to get Orchestra seats in the back of Orchestra 1 or 3 for close or under face value for shows that are not sold out. Additionally, tickets in Orchestra 2 will generally only be on the secondary market. Almost all Orchestra 2 seats that are released to the public are done so on a season ticket basis. The average cost per ticket is usually double the face value printed on the ticket. But don’t get upset if you are paying $140 for a $100 ticket! You are not getting ripped off. The season ticket holder probably bought directly from the venue for double the “printed” price.

Ticket Analyst advice for seating at Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Irvine:

-The pit is often overcrowded and uncomfortable for the most popular shows.

-Once you get more than 10-15 rows back in the Orchestra, it doesn’t really matter how close to the center your seat is.

-The lawn is a long steep trek and requires arrival at door time to get a good spot.

NBA Finals tickets are HOW MUCH??

Tickets are $$$$$ according to the newspaper

How often do you read a headline such as NBA finals tickets are selling for $12,500 each? Well this is a lie.  This is what one person thinks their tickets are worth. A broker or an individual has posted the tickets at this price hoping to get a lucky sale.  It’s not what they are selling for; it’s just the asking price. How often do they sell at this price? One in a thousand, maybe! I remember watching the NBA finals a couple years ago and seeing almost the whole row behind the bench being empty till half time.  This is because the individual selling the tickets waited until then to give them to their employees.  With the price so high at the beginning and no squeeze at the end all the big spenders had bought other tickets.

What does this mean to me? This is actually a good thing if you desperately want to attend this event. Why is it a good thing the newspaper and radio are advertising that major event tickets are selling for the price of a car?

By advertising the extreme top of the market the media outlets are scaring off most people who would actually enquire about the price of the ticket and find out some seats are affordable.  With less people in the market for tickets the prices fall further and faster than they otherwise would have enabling you to pay less for what you were going to buy anyways.

Once again the lesson is to always buy directly from the person owning the tickets and never buy within the first 24 hours of an event being confirmed or the event going on sale.

-Been an OK seller at the Bowl in years past. Prices will be high to start on the secondary market. It is tough to get good tickets at Nokia Theatre LA Live. Wait out the high prices at the beginning on the secondary market if you must have the best.

-Seems quite a large place for them. Same advice as Anita Baker.

How To Buy Concert Tickets Part 1

How To Buy Concert Tickets Part 2

How To Buy Concert Tickets Part 3

Hello world!

I’m Brian and I’ve been dealing tickets for over 9 years. For the past 5 years I’ve been advising clients on buying and selling tickets in a high end ticket brokerage, a stealth internet startup, to scalping on the street (on occasion, reluctantly). My success in advising people is due to my commanding knowledge of the ticket market. Knowing how to time the market, pricing fluctuations and patterns along with knowledge of the most popular places to sit in every venue from your ballpark to a summer show at the amphitheatre has allowed me to help the super fan get the best value in purchasing and the ticket owners the most profit when selling. You might find these two mutually exclusive, but they are not due to the fact that there are so many people buying and selling on the secondary market.

I started out just like you. I’d be at Ticketmaster every Saturday morning at the crack of dawn trying to get the best seats for that weeks’ concert. Over time as I got to know the people who would run the Ticketmaster at the local record store, one begins to gain knowledge of how it all works. While there were never a lot of good seats for seated venues there would always be some decent seats around 9A.M. Come 9:50 all those good tickets would be gone. This led to frustration and research into where the good seats went. Needless to say there are some shady backdoor transactions going on. As I learned more about under the table transactions people started to ask me to stand in line for them for a fee and I realized that my knowledge of tickets and seating was worth more. Combine my frustrations with the way the system worked, I moved to work within the system and help those who don’t have that knowledge. It always hurt to have people pay way too much for tickets but working in a company you are forced to do what is best for your job not what is best for others. Finally sick of the way I had to treat customers, I have decided to help Joe and Jane fan get the best seats for the least amount of money out of your wallet.
