Looking for last-minute Chappell Roan tickets? What to know before KC shows
In just a few short days, Kansas City will turn into a sea of pink when Missouri-born pop star Chappell Roan comes to town for two concerts. The limited tour — called Visions of Damsels & Other Dangerous Things — takes over Museum and Memorial Park on Friday, Oct. 3, and Saturday, Oct 4.
The shows have been sold out since tickets went on sale in August, and while 30,000 lucky fans for both nights got their hands on tickets, thousands more were left on the outside looking in.
Fans looking to get inside the concert boundaries can get tickets for resale prices, but they should be aware of where they’re buying them from. Scams are out and about, looking to catch desperate fans.
Where to buy Chappell Roan tickets
Roan used a ticketing process called Fair AXS to make sure tickets end up in the hands of fans and prevent bots and scalpers from getting tickets. While it likely didn’t stop all of them, resale prices are similar to the face value prices fans paid for in August.
AXS’ resale ticket tab shows prices are $124 for a general admission ticket for Friday and Saturday. VIP tickets are available on the ticket site’s resale section for $313 on Friday, but none are available Saturday.
Resale tickets start at $135 for Friday and $157 for Saturday on StubHub. Prices on SeatGeek start at $142 for Friday and $174 for Saturday. Both resale markets say the tickets are protected, meaning you can receive a full refund if entry is denied. Concertgoers for different shows have reported issues with not receiving tickets from either site, so be careful buying resale tickets online.
Be cautious of any Facebook Marketplace listings with tickets as well, as these could be scams with no chance of getting your money back. A study from English banking company Lloyds Banking Group focused on rock band Oasis’ return to touring said Facebook Marketplace was the biggest source of ticket scams, with people losing as much as $1,300 on a ticket to one of their shows.
Facebook’s commerce policy also states it’s against the rules to sell tickets on its marketplace unless it’s from an approved seller.
Prices were $129 for general admission and $277 for VIP admission when tickets went on sale in August.
