How to Buy Pre-Sale Tickets on Ticketmaster

Introduction

Purchasing pre-sale tickets on Ticketmaster can secure you the best prices for popular events. This guide will walk you through the process using a Post Malone pre-sale event as an example.

Getting a Pre-Sale Code

To access pre-sale tickets, you usually need a pre-sale code. There are different types of codes:

  • Unique Code: Sent to fan club members.
  • Public Code: Found online.
  • Credit Card Pre-Sale: Requires specific credit cards (e.g., Citi).

For this guide, we use a public code. A quick search reveals codes like “PM2024” or “CORD” from sources like Reddit or Live Nation.

Joining the Pre-Sale Queue

Before the pre-sale starts, make sure you’re logged into your Ticketmaster account and ready to join the queue. The queue opens 15 minutes before the pre-sale time. You’ll need to authenticate your account, usually via a one-time code sent to your phone.

Buying Pre-Sale Tickets

Once you’re in, enter the pre-sale code to unlock ticket options. Prices vary by section:

  • Closer seats: $250
  • Standing room: $298
  • Further seats: $58

Be cautious with official Platinum tickets as they are generally more expensive. Select your preferred seats, add them to your cart, and proceed to checkout.

Checkout Process

At checkout, review your order details and avoid unnecessary add-ons like ticket insurance. Once confirmed, place your order. Your tickets will be available in your Ticketmaster account.
