Planning for a Big Stadium Show: Presales, Pricing and Getting There
When a major artist such as Post Malone announces a stadium run with a guest like Jelly Roll, the announcement is usually the start of a process rather than the moment tickets appear. The specific tour dates and sale windows for any past or future run should always be confirmed on the artist's official channels and the venue's own website, because details change and resale listings often appear before tickets are actually on sale.
How presales generally work
Large tours typically release tickets in stages. Fan club or newsletter presales, credit card partner presales and venue or promoter presales often come before the general on-sale. Signing up for official artist mailing lists and the venue's newsletter is the most reliable way to hear about these windows. Some sales use a verified-fan registration, where you sign up in advance and receive a code if selected.
- Create and log in to your ticketing account before the sale starts, with payment details saved.
- Use one device and one browser tab per account; multiple tabs can trigger queue problems.
- Decide your budget and seating preference beforehand, since dynamic pricing can move quickly.
- Be cautious with third-party resale sites; check refund policies and buyer guarantees.
Looking after yourself on show day
Stadium concerts mean long hours on your feet, crowds and often summer heat. Drink water regularly, eat before you go, wear comfortable shoes and bring earplugs, since sustained loud music can affect hearing. If you have a health condition, plan bathroom access and medication timing in advance and speak with your own doctor if you have concerns. Our guides cover more practical event-health tips.
Finally, plan transport early. Stadium parking fills quickly, and light rail or rideshare pickup zones can be crowded after the encore. For local options, see our overview of Twin Cities venues.
