What do concerts do with unsold tickets?
When it gets to same day if not sold they will go or send someone to the venue to sell the tickets at a reduce price to what they were listed at to liquidate those.
How long before a concert should you buy tickets?
Buy immediately – or immediately beforehand. (A Jay-Z show in New York City this winter was, in desperation, taken down to as low as $6 a seat.) So if you sleep through the initial on-sale, there’s hope yet; you just have to take the risk of waiting until the last minute.
Can someone else use my tickets from Ticketmaster?
Yes, you can! Once you accept the tickets they’re all yours. If you can’t use them, you can transfer them back to the person who sent them, or transfer them to anyone else you like.
Can concert tickets be scanned twice?
Yup, but beware: multiple copies mean someone else could wind up sitting in your seat. If someone gets a hold of a copy and gets there first, their ticket will work and yours won’t because the system will show the ticket has already been scanned.
Can you just Screenshot Ticketmaster tickets?
Skip the hassle of a meeting spot and visit Ticketmaster today to send tickets to everyone in just a few taps. Can I use a screenshot of my mobile ticket to enter? Your barcode includes technology to protect it, so you won’t be able to use screenshots or print outs.
Why are concert tickets so cheap the day before?

Why do concert venues offer 2-for-1 tickets?
Something more subtle usually happens. Rather than lower the price, which is usually fixed up front and written into a contract somewhere, venues/promoters (they work together on this) will come out with 2-for-1 offers to specific people.
Is it possible to get a band to lower their prices?
You are on the right track, but generally no. Promoters realize lowering prices lowers the perceived demand and importance of an artist. Generally, a nationally touring band has a guaranteed fee.
