Bradley 55,071 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I have seated tickets for the first Los Angeles date, I know for General Admission attendees you have to be there in the morning to get good spots but my question is, for seated tickets, how early should I be there? I'm thinking 3pm/4pm for a 7:30pm show but I'm afraid queuing and traffic might leave me out of the arena for too long, I haven't been to a concert in the US, can someone advise me on that? Especially not to a concert by someone as popular as Gaga who's one of the biggest stars in America and the world right now... Thanks in advance!

Bradley 55,071 Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 I don't want to be still queuing and then listening to the opening intro begin when I'm still outside the arena I would kill myself. Also when it says the show begins at 7:30pm, does it mean opening acts (if there are any) will start at that time or the real show (by Gaga) begins at that time?

Bradley 55,071 Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 Just now, T E Anne said: why didn't you buy GA or EE, though? how will you be able to resist jumping and screaming? I bought overpriced resale tickets from Ticketmaster and I'm not sure why it indicated that there weren't any tickets left when sales opened, now I discovered that there are official tickets sold at a much lower price. As you can imagine, GA tickets would be far more expensive and I'm not a very tall person so I prefer looking at the whole stage from afar than being blocked by people around me.

TropicOfCANCER 6,292 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 If the show "starts" at 7:30---that's the opening act. and even then, they probably won't go on until 8:00. Gaga probably won't begin until 9:00-9:30. You should honestly just try to get there at 7:00-7:15. Trust me, there's so much waiting around at concerts, and you're DEFINITELY not going to miss anything. If anything, going in a little after the "start" time is better because there's less waiting in lines, which, tbh, usually aren't even that long of a wait anyway.

AndrewGr 6,019 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 If you have a numbered seat, you can even show up at 7.00 p.m and not miss anything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no opening acts announced though, so I will be conservative and assume Gaga starting at 7:30 though I can't imagine Gaga starting a show that early.

Aim to get there at 6:15. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustaMonster 4,909 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I live about 1.5-2ish hours away from my venue and I'm probably going to leave around 4:30 so I can get there around 6:00-6:30. Although now that I think about it I might need to leave earlier because there will be rush hour traffic Hands up to the sky, I'm about to fly!

Monster Voices 1,024 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 If you don't mind waiting a bit I'd say it's better to not worry or be rushed. Go at 6, talk to some people, feel the vibe Forever and Always! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaga won't be on stage at 7.30pm- just rock up about 30 mins before the show starts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be no queue when the show starts. That would never happen. If support starts at 7.30, latest to get there would be 7. If you're not bothered about the support act you can get there any time up to 20 minutes before Gaga comes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
