Coldplay Passes: 50,000 Line Up on BookMyShow for ‘Fail’ Sale

Tickets worth 5,000, 7,500 and 15,00 were sold in less than two hours!

Tickets for the Coldplay concert in Mumbai on 19 November went live on Bookmyshow on Thursday afternoon, and people do not seem pleased.

With more than 50,000 people (at least!) queued up to buy the tickets, India took to Twitter, complaining of the ill-handling of the sale of one of the most awaited concerts in India.

People ‘lined up’ as tickets for Rs 5,000, Rs 7,500 and Rs 15,000 were sold out in less than two hours.

Okay WTF??Tickets getting sold out only in couple of hours.52058 people are ahead of me for booking😠#ColdplayIndia pic.twitter.com/rjVNziruMq

Says a lot about India's population problem when there is a queue even for online sales. #Coldplay #GlobalCitizenIndia

The only hope we have left of watching Coldplay live is those tickets Global Citizen is reportedly giving out for free.
