Everyone past the pit is seeing the show further from you True, thank you, I know I shouldn’t be worried at all, this made me feel better about it!

I do it every time! This is a really good idea! Although I’m going solo to the show, I’m hoping to make some friends with other monsters attending. I just hope Gaga doesn’t see me leaving and coming back with merch lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daenerys 5,944 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 From personal experience. Yeah there’s a chance the merch will be gone, but I’ve been to every Gaga show since TMB and can tell you right now they don’t sell out. The good thing about artists of her caliber is that the stock is MASSIVE. It’s annoying holding all of your stuff during the show, and even more annoying when people are giving you dirty looks from your bags hitting them. there are merch stands literally EVERYWHERE. The lines move fast, even after the shows. I’d say 100% to wait until after the show. You’ll be comfortable enough to dance without anything in your arms, and you won’t have to worry about anyone stealing your bags if you set them down to watch the show.

Ouranos 674 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I did that for the BTWB I regret it as I was stuck with a bag in the pit but glad I got what I got 🤷🏻♂️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its good to hear about your past experiences with Gaga-specific shows, definitely helps in making a decision. I think considering time and not wanting to hold stuff through the show I’ll purchase merch when the show is over. Thank you!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tylertremallose 1,360 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I’ve seen some concerts that are expected to be very full, selling merch a day or two before outside the venue maybe they might go that route Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

beli8 1,386 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 My spot in the pit is always priority for me, and I'll get merch after the show. Sometimes I won't even buy any merch because I don't like any of it or it is too expensive, and I'd hate to miss a better spot in the pit if this is the case. I also don't want to carry more stuff with me during the show how some have said. They'll definitely have card payment methods available. I heard about the Taylor shows selling merch outside of the venue. My niece went to one of her shows and the merch sale outside of the venue was the day before the show. I think that's pretty amazing if it starts to become a norm (unless you're traveling to the show and won't arrive until the day of lol although I think they'd still sell merch at the show).

monstertoronto 8,779 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I would go straight to get a good spot in the pit. The show itself is the memory you will keep with you. Most merch is sold on her website. Some artists do sell special merch only available at the venue that has only the specific city or something in big letters but I don’t recall if Gaga has ever done that.

Ophelia 4,476 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I always go after the show and most of the people do. I’ve never seen it sold out, they have a huge stock. Don’t worry! 💕 ...has anybody seen my disco stick? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty like sodium 1,072 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Pretty sure when I saw Beyoncé you could buy merch really early on, like from the morning. If you're going with someone else they can hold your place in line and you can go buy merch before the fans flock in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
