When you try your best but you don't succeed.

As presale tickets for Coldplay's two Dublin 2024 shows released this morning, a large amount of fans have voiced complaints towards the Ticketmaster website. With the limited amount of tickets going live at 10am on Tuesday morning, fans have rushed to the ticket sales site in order to grab the coveted tickets before general sale launches on Friday. However a large number of fans have found themselves taken out of the queue for no apparent reason and unable to get back in, while others haven't been able enter the queue at all. Some fans have even received an error message saying "the site is not reachable at the moment, please try again in a few minutes."

Some of the few fans that finally managed to get to the front of the queue found themselves left with only the choice of extremely expensive VIP tickets remaining.

Bitterly disappointed at the price of #coldplaydublin no wonder they are doing some tickets for €20. having a toddler and a newborn I simply cannot justify buying, as much as it's a bucket list gig. pic.twitter.com/W4KAirJwZR
