Billie Eilish recently announced the dates for her WHERE DO WE GO? world tour, which is in support of her record-breaking debut album WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?
The tour starts in March and will continue through July as she treks from North America to Latin and South America and then across the pond to Europe and the United Kingdom.
However, she faced a lot of backlash when fans hoping to score a ticket for one of her upcoming shows through a Ticketmaster Verified Fan presale were hit with chaos.
Some lucky fans were selected through the Verified Fan program to receive a presale code for early access but faced numerous systematic errors.
When fans went to get their presale tickets though, dozens found themselves locked out of the Ticketmaster site, kicked out of their spot in line, or facing a waitlist of up to 500 other people as one user said.

I couldn’t get #verifiedfan to take my kid to the concert. Now people that did get verified are scalping tickets on @StubHub for Paul McCartney level prices. Seems like your verification process doesn’t work so well.— Adam Yale (@ayale99) October 3, 2019
This @billieeilish @Ticketmaster #VerifiedFan presale has been an absolute nightmare from my end. So far, I have been kicked out of the system even after being verified, being in the queue, etc. All the cheap seats seem to be gone by now.

The response sparked Ticketmaster’s apology and a representative for the company told Billboard that the on-sale was delayed an hour total due to a system error and but the issues have been resolved.
“Billie Eilish Fans: We sincerely apologize for the issues during today’s presale. We will ensure that all Verified Fans are able to purchase tickets prior to tomorrow’s public onsale.”
