Olivia Rodrigo fans have revealed that they queued up for as long as 12 hours in a bid to nab tickets for her hotly-anticipated Australian Guts 2024 tour.
The American pop star, 21, is set to take to the stage for eight shows in Melbourne and Sydney in October, and fans have frantically tried to nab their tickets on Thursday.
The general sale kicked off at 1pm AEST and, after warnings that the presale on Ticketek was ‘chaos’, some fans went to extreme lengths in a bid to secure their seats.
One megafan took to TikTok on Thursday to reveal that they had spent 12 hours queuing up at the Ticketek box office in Sydney to score their tickets.
The fan, called Ella, shared a video allegedly showing the huge group of determined fans who lined up in person, rather than queuing online, ahead of the general sale.
