Second chance for Thirty Second To Mars fans as fresh standing tickets expected for Manchester Arena gig

By Ella Murphy

Disappointed Thirty Seconds To Mars fans may be given a second chance as more standing tickets for Manchester’s November show are expected to emerge.

Tickets went on sale last Friday for the band’s upcoming UK tour – yet fans battled by phone and online only to see that standing tickets had rapidly sold out from all official ticket suppliers within a matter of minutes.

However, fans contacting the Manchester Arena box office are currently being told that more standing tickets are expected to be released the week prior to their November 16 show.

After announcing their UK Tour at Download Festival, tickets were always going to be popular for this concert; a series of outlandish PR stunts ensure that Thirty Seconds to Mars remain in the public eye – including playing on the roof of the O2 Arena in London two weeks ago.

The L.A three-piece’s live performances are infamous for demanding audience participation – even if that means frontman Jared Leto has to get into the crowd himself to show you how it’s done.

Special guests include Surrey sextet You Me At Six, who are gaining even more momentum after selling out Wembley Arena for their show in December last year, The Final Night Of Sin.

Seated tickets are still available via most major ticket sellers.
