click on "seatmap"

a map of the stadium will pop up.

Pelouse: lawn - standing

Carré d'or: "golden circle" (in front of stage) - standing

Scène : stage

When you position your arrow on a spot you are intrested in, a small widow will open giving you placement/ price/ availability ("free" meaning available)

Good luck.

i have the same problem with the plan, the plan is totally confusing 2 me...

what i dont understand: when "scene" is the stage, and golden circle/carre d'or is infront of the

stage, why do people BEHIND the stage pay 260 / 350 SFR for their tickets?? I mean, ok, he has a sexy backview. BUT ... ? any ideas anyone?

I noticed that too. When I bought my ticket a while ago, the blackened area was the stage. Either they changed the setup, or they are having technical problems they are not aware of... at the bottom of the page you can click on "contacts" and send them a message. Good luck!

I Have a ticket in Sector Q (behind the scene/stage. Resaplus told me that the ticket will be changed when u will enter the stadion. because there have only 8'000 tickets sold until now they have chaned the layout 90c (from longside to crosswise).

I hope all will b fine 4 us.

We're thinking of going as well, from Holland, since we're going to Italy on holidays the day after - might as leave a day earlier and travel to Umbria via Geneva! Only thing that concerns me is that the tickets as so EXPENSIVE! I want to take my 9yr old daughter since they offer seated places, but approximately 200 euro per ticket is outrageous. Are those tickets through Resaplus the official ones or is this a reseller?!

Resaplus is the offficial one (there is Eventim.ch too but the ticket prices are the same).

Maybe you could ask resaplus if your 9 years old daughter has a free admittance with your ticket...

Ok so i booked my tickets for the show and am so excited! I got the the 180 standing place carre D'or tickets, i hope these will be good!

My question is for anyone who knows Geneva, where is a good nearby hotel? Also how far is the concert venue from the airport etc?

Thanks! x

Have Fun

You're in the Carré d'Or? You're fine! You'll get a great close up view of the Man and his Band!

I just hope the date is not going to get changed again... or cancelled. I had to rebook flights and hotel reservations, agh!

I am already discussing the date change stuff with resaplus who said they'll forward my questions to the organisers.

I had to rebook train tickets and hotel reservations too (from Italy). I keep my fingers crossed all the time...

Instead of simply rebooking and crossing fingers, perhaps taking a loss there, why not talk to the organsiers of the concert?

Just email them and tell them they overestimate the selling power of Prince and/or overestimate the buying power of fans in these cri$i$-times, thus causing issues for the casual consumer that you are.

They need to know what they cause.

Hmm.... well, they said that on the original date, which was a monday, people couldn't use public transport to get home after the concert, so they decided to put it on a weekend! They kinda lost me with that logic, as usually public transport is more likely to be in operation on a weekday, than on the weekend... but they did manage though now to get an extra SBB train after the concert, but in general, friday obviously is a better concert day than monday... bottom line though was, that they haven't sold enough tickets!

Cool well i cant wait!

Does anyone know how long the tickets will take to arrive. Im in the UK and only ordered them yesterday - im worrying that they wont arrive in time but i still have a week so think im just being a dram queen? lol xx

PatrickS77 said:

How many did they sell?

What doest this imply?

The number kicked around was 8.000 in a 30.000+ stadium!

PatrickS77 said:

That is recent info?

Hmmm.

So maybe a smallish 10K of tickets?

I still smell a risk of cancellation.

Yes, from last week when they changed the date!

PatrickS77 said:

The date change was to attract more buyers because of the weekend or something, right?

Did they succeed? Or rather: will they?

Most likely, yes!

Will they succeed? I don't know... I'm no psychic... we will see next week... but I'm sure that people are more likely to go to a concert on a friday, than on a monday!

dont know if this is going 2 sell more tix.

i am still thinking of going or not. i am just afraid of a mess in the stadium, cause they want 2 change tix and seats and so on. i would go 2 golden circle anyway... this is in every case in front of the stage, no matter where this stage will b.

but in berlin, they said also all the time, that they didnt even sell the half of the tix. but it seemed in the end very well crowded. sure not sold out, but sure much more than the half of the stadion was full. and prince will play as good as he can, no matter how many people come.

hmm... look at nice, they have 2 different prices only - basta. and both not so high price.

on the other side, the expensive tix in geneva r sold out. so these r the people who make the prices. its 4 sure not easy 2 organize a concert, but also not so hard. its a prince concert, not just anything. i am still thinking of going or not... will u go?
