On July 25, the Hanoi People's Committee issued a statement about "BlackPink World Tour 2023".
Accordingly, the show at My Dinh Stadium on July 29 is expected to welcome about 36,000 spectators, and on July 30, about 31,000 spectators.
BlackPink's show in Vietnam is still going on as planned.
So, there are only 5 days left until the BlackPink concert in Vietnam officially takes place, but the black market has not cooled down yet, many people holding tickets are rushing to sell them, accepting a loss.
Even though the ticket seller Ticketbox has temporarily suspended its ticket sales website since July 14, many seats have not been purchased yet, and ticket sellers are advertising deep discounts and cutting losses, but no one is asking to buy.
In groups with tens of thousands of participants, a series of posts selling tickets appeared with high frequency. Among them, many accounts announced to cut losses with prices lower than the original price by millions of dong, buying all tickets at a discount of up to... 30%.
To "save tickets", ticket scalpers give many "half-crying, half-laughing" reasons: Suddenly receiving tickets as gifts, having a sudden family matter, accidentally buying the wrong tickets... In particular, there are accounts that post urgently asking for everyone's help because they have "held" a large number of concert tickets.
The BlackPink concert ticket market is bustling on social networks but there are few buyers.
Previously, statistics from the SocialHeat platform showed that the consumption of black market tickets for the group BlackPink was gradually decreasing, the situation of supply being greater than demand was happening. The difference ratio was even up to 21:1.
From July 7 (the date of ticket sales) to July 11, the black market was extremely active. According to statistics from this platform, there were 25,609 comments on social networks from 7,243 users who were in need of transferring tickets.
The number of people wanting to buy tickets is only nearly 1,200 comments. That means only 5% of people want to buy, which means that for every 21 people who want to transfer tickets, there is only 1 person who wants to buy. The chaotic ticket market makes buyers hesitant because they are afraid of being scammed.
On July 22, Ticketbox - the ticket seller for two BlackPink concerts in Hanoi, suddenly announced that it would exchange bracelets for attendees, causing a stir.
Accordingly, this unit requires participants to come to My Dinh Stadium to exchange electronic tickets for bracelets. This is considered a way to minimize fraud when reselling tickets.
The Organizing Committee (OC) requires electronic tickets sent directly from the ticket seller when exchanging rounds to ensure validity and authenticity. Screenshots, forwarded emails, prints, photocopies, etc. are not accepted.
In case the ticket buyer cannot come to receive the ring, it is necessary to confirm the information via the ticket issuer's website and have a signed authorization letter.
