Coldplay’s highly anticipated concert in Abu Dhabi on January 11, 2025, created a frenzy among UAE residents as the pre-sale went live. Thousands of eager fans logged in promptly at 12pm, only to find themselves stuck in virtual queues with over 200,000 people ahead of them. Many waited for hours, only to face disappointment as technical glitches marred the ticketing process. One frustrated fan, Namira R., shared her experience of being logged out after waiting for hours, forcing her to rejoin the queue from the end, ultimately leading her to give up on securing tickets.
The frustration was shared by others, including Naushad Dhun, who reached the front of the queue after 2.5 hours, only to find that most of the ticket categories were already sold out. With limited choices left, he faced further difficulties in purchasing tickets due to system errors and blocking for unusual browsing behavior. The experience left many fans feeling stressed and exhausted, with some missing out on tickets after waiting for hours. A second show on January 12 was announced later in the day, renewing hope for some fans, but the ticketing process remained equally challenging.
The pre-sale experience for Coldplay’s concert was described as feeling more like winning a lottery than a regular online purchase by Sara Saify, who waited nearly four hours only to leave empty-handed.
