The original ticket prices started at $97.11, and standing room tickets ranged from $194.87 to $198.15. However, when the final ticket prices dropped, Ticketmaster implemented their dynamic pricing strategy, resulting in a massive increase to $459.30 for a single standing room ticket.
The decision to implement the scheme was made in 2022 to allow for price increases for supply when demand spikes. The rationale for this dynamic pricing system is to “provide fans with fair and secure access to tickets, while also allowing artists and others involved in staging live events to price tickets closer to their true market value.”
Fans and critics alike have voiced their disappointment as the band prepare for a highly anticipated reunion tour next summer, which will include 17 shows across the UK and Ireland.
Adding fuel to the fire, an old tweet from Liam recently resurfaced.

@LeAdderNoire also said, “£380 ($498.66) for a GA ‘reaction price’ when people have been queuing for 3 hours. What kind of bastard would do that? Like you. BA x”
“Delete this, it’s embarrassing you b*tch,” suggested @glazersleavenow, while another X user, @cwo1983, exclaimed, “When will this stop Liam, who has £400 ($524.91), plus other expenses including hotel and food. Surplus of over £1000 ($1312.28) for a gig. Things have to change. There’s no better time than now.”
Had to stop my son from paying this. What a scandal. Publicly soliciting fans. What a sad day.
