TMZ: Beyoncé struggles selling tickets ahead of her first show

[monketsharona 89,894]

Beyoncé’s not used to missing a step -- but with "Cowboy Carter" tour tickets struggling to sell, fans are saddling up with jokes ... and she’s stuck taking the heat.

With her tour kicking off tonight at L.A.'s SoFi Stadium, there are still more than 3,800 tickets up for grabs -- and resale prices have dropped to $20. Pretty wild, considering it’s Queen Bey we’re talking about ... and she literally just snagged an Album of the Year Grammy for "Cowboy Carter"!

Bey seemed a little oblivious over the ticket sales ... dropping an IG teaser Sunday showing off the venue with the caption, "SHE COMING" -- but someone might wanna give her a heads-up that "NO ONE COMING."

There’s no clear reason why the tickets aren’t moving -- is Queen Bey’s reign slipping, are fans getting their music fix elsewhere ... or is there something else going on behind the scenes?

3800 tickets is nothing in a stadium that big. I think percentage wise it would count as sold out?

My god the press really likes to put down female performers.

This album hasnt really been all that big has it?

I certainly dont know anyone listening to it, and she is in this weird “i dont promote anymore” headspace like with Renaissance. Difference with Renaissance though it was her first album in a fee years and musically was more appealing imo.

Honestly the map with the tickets left and resales doesn't look very very cute. I love Beyoncé but the demand is not what they expected clearly. This plus all the tickets prices that were lowered the last few days. She's kinda struggling for her standards

Yeah, percentage wise it’s like 90% sold. However, if you look at the map as of today, there are decent chunks of seats that are empty, and given that resellers don’t attend the concert, it’s not gonna look packed. I saw equal amount of unsold standard and resell tickets.

Here's today's. I'm genuinely shocked af at this

Probably when People see footage more tickets will be sold

[nodandsmile 11,695]

sounds like a hater wrote this lol but yeah the tickets being expensive made A LOT of noise even international press talked about it, also that's too many dates in one city!

when videos from the first show hits the internet they'll probably sell faster

Pinks count as sold cuz they are resales. 

So only the blue are unsold in any capacity.

Not that playing to empty seats is a good luck sold or unsold. 

 

Its an interesting 1. She's very much relying on positive press from show 1 tonight to ignite further sales, but equally depending on how luck is feeling the media focus tomorrow may be clips of Beyonce performing to obvious empty patches which could harm sales.

Yeah, 3,800 out of 70,000  

Imagine taking the time to write a whole article about a show only being 95% sold out

[Leography 603]

Lmao let's talk about it after we see the footage yeah? 

[Togekiss 2,914]

Do people actually listen to Beyoncé or do they just talk about how great she is?

That's odd. I googled the concert capacity of the stadium but I guess they don't use the full 70.000 spots? Cause on the map it doesn't look like 90% sold.
