Foo Fighters 2024 New Zealand Tour Ticket Tips

How do I purchase Accessible Seating tickets?

Accessible seats (including Companion Cards) can be purchased by calling our Customer Service team on the Accessible Bookings line:  09 970 9711 . This phone number is reserved for patrons with accessibility requirements and companion cardholders and can not process any other ticketing requests.

Select the seat you want using the Interactive Seating Map

Whether you are familiar with the venue your planning to attend and have your ideal view already selected or you want complete control over your purchasing experience, we know that having the ability to choose your seats is super important, and we want to make sure the process is as quick as possible when you’re buying tickets against the clock. That’s why you have the freedom to choose the seats you want via our Interactive Seating Map. To get started, click on a section of the map to zoom in on seats and see what is currently available. Scroll left and right and zoom in and out to navigate around the venue. Then, select a seat and zoom right in to get a preview of what your view might look like.

Please note: If you’re booking for an event that’s in high demand, you may not see the interactive seat map when you first log on to buy tickets. In instances where we have a lot of fans trying to buy tickets at the same time, we aim to make your checkout experience as fast as possible. The interactive seating map will be deactivated to speed things up for you and boost your chances of securing tickets.

Log into your Ticketmaster account and update your password if needed!

Get in early and ensure all your MyTicketmaster account details are up to date – from your password to your card details and your phone number.

Ticketmaster will regularly ask you to update your password to ensure the security of your account – you don’t want to get stuck having to change your password while the ticket timer is counting down during onsale as you can risk losing the incredible tickets you have secured.

Instead, now that you know you want to purchase tickets, log into your account and update your password today to ensure you are ready to nab those tickets.

Get to know Ticketmaster’s Smart Queue

We expect that tickets to Foo Fighters will be in high demand, and to make the process fair for everyone you may be placed in a queue.

We recommend signing into your Ticketmaster account at least 30 minutes before tickets go on sale to save your spot and join the Pre-Queue waiting room.

If you aren’t familiar with Smart Queue, it is Ticketmaster’s way of creating a clear and fair process for thousands of fans to buy tickets in a short space of time. Fans enter the virtual Waiting Room prior to onsale time before joining the Smart Queue – which acts as a ‘virtual line’, helping us protect you and your tickets in a more effective way.

Please note: The time you join the Waiting Room does not determine your place in the Smart Queue.

Once you get your spot in the queue, please do not refresh your browser as you will be pushed to the end of the line.

We will get you through the queue as quickly as possible, so please sit tight.

All Foo Fighters tickets will be digital

All tickets purchased through Ticketmaster are now digital, meaning you can easily access your tickets on your phone via the Ticketmaster app or mobile web browser via Ticketmaster.co.nz, add them straight to your phone’s ticket wallet, and share them with your friends and family.

Hints and tips for improving your chances of getting Foo Fighters tickets

Make sure you have a My Ticketmaster account

Get the basics covered before tickets go on sale by logging in and checking your Ticketmaster account ahead of time. If you don’t have a Ticketmaster Account then make sure you sign up in advance – Ticketmaster.co.nz

Sign into your My Ticketmaster account ahead of time

Remember to triple check your passwords, account information, and billing information are all filled in correctly in advance, that way you’re not facing any last-minute account updates when trying to process your order.

Keep your options open with ‘Best Available’

Save time by searching “Best Available,” which scans all sections fast – it’s quicker than searching sections one at a time.

Keep an eye on the clock

There will be a time limit applied to all transactions as you are progressed through the ticket purchasing stages. Remember to keep an eye on the timer on your screen and move through the processing pages as quickly as possible (this is even easier when you’ve completed the account set-up stage we mentioned above).

Don’t refresh your screen

Stick to one window while you’re in the Waiting Room and when you’re being pushed through the Smart Queue and always resist the urge to refresh.

Hitting the refresh button means you’ll lose your place in the queue and, as frustrating as it can get, patience is the only way to win this game. Ticketmaster is equipped with sophisticated systems that are designed to manage and process ticket purchases as quickly as possible. The queuing system that appears on your screen will place you at the front of the line as soon as possible.

Remember: there are a lot of fans

We’re expecting this to be a very popular event. When a popular event goes on sale there are hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of customers all attempting to purchase tickets at the same time. Tickets are sold as long as seats are available, and when an act is this popular, sometimes they go very quickly.

Be sure to follow the above tips to ensure you have the best chance of snapping up some tickets.

The Foo Fighters will bring their tour to New Zealand in January 2024. Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster.co.nz
