BigBang Singapore concert ticket sales see queue numbers exceed 300,000 on first day
On the first day of ticket sales for K-pop group BigBang's upcoming XX: Cosmos concert in Singapore, queues for the event surpassed 300,000 people. The ticket sales began at noon on Tuesday, August 11. Virtual queues reached over 300,000 as of the time of reporting. A BigBang fan shared a screenshot displaying her queue number, indicating the high demand for tickets.
Multiple sources report some fans have queue numbers over 500,000, possibly due to fans joining without meeting the VIP membership and survey requirements. One fan with a queue number of 8,000 faced issues entering the ticketing page and was eventually removed from the queue. At 12:14 PM, Ticketmaster notified those in line that no more VIP Ultimate packages were available for the presale, with additional tickets to be released during the general sale.
A presale session for Trip.com members took place on August 12, starting at 10 AM. General sales commenced at 10 AM on August 13 via Ticketmaster. The concert will take place at the National Stadium on October 17 as BigBang's first performance in Singapore in a decade, following their last show in 2016. BigBang will release a new single, Biiig, on August 19 ahead of the Singapore concert.
The band's XX: Cosmos world tour begins with a three-night concert at South Korea's Goyang Stadium from August 21 to 23, followed by performances in the US and Europe.
