Olivia Rodrigo fans go wild as more tickets for her sold-out Aussie Guts tour are released – here’s how to get yours
Olivia Rodrigo fans went wild on Thursday as it was confirmed that more tickets for her Australian Guts tour would be released.
Many fans were left upset after missing out on tickets as the US pop star’s eight shows in Australia all quickly sold out during last month’s general sale.
However, they were given a second chance to get tickets when Live Nation confirmed that a ‘small number’ of extra seats would be up for grabs.
The entertainment company shared a post on Instagram confirming that a few ‘limited view’ tickets would be made available.
Tickets go on sale on Thursday, June 6 at 3pm, with Live Nation giving fans just an hour’s notice amid skyrocketing demand for the concerts.

The post sent fans into a frenzy as those who missed out on tickets in the general sale shared their hopes of getting some for a second time.
In the comments section, one fan wrote, “I need this so bad,” while another said, “Omggg!!”
Many other fans eagerly tagged their friends as they spread the shocking news of the last-minute additional ticket sales.

It is unknown how many tickets will be available in the extra sale as Aussies desperately tried to get a chance to see Olivia’s first tour Down Under.
Fans scrambled to get tickets for her highly anticipated Guts tour after she canceled a promotional tour Down Under late last year.
Some eager fans queued for up to 12 hours at Sydney’s Ticketek box office for the general sale last month as they tried to beat the online frenzy.
One megafan took to TikTok to share a video reportedly showing the huge group of determined concertgoers lining up in person ahead of the general sellout.

Fans went to great lengths to get tickets for Olivia’s highly anticipated Guts tour, including queuing for 12 hours at Ticketek’s offices for last month’s general sale
She told how she woke up at 12.45am to go to the Ticketek office at Penrith Panthers Leagues Club to queue for tickets, where they faced a 12-hour wait.
The fan claimed that the first person arrived in line at 11pm the night before the sale, with a very long wait until the tickets finally went on general sale at 1pm on May 16.
Later, she excitedly shared an update in the comments confirming she had tickets, but said many people in line were disappointed because they didn’t get one.
The chaos of getting tickets for Olivia’s shows was compared to the chaos when tickets for Taylor Swift’s Australian Eras tour went on sale.

A record 4 million people waited in an online queue in an attempt to get tickets for Taylor’s 2024 shows, causing the Ticketek app to crash completely.
Olivia will take to the stage for eight shows in Melbourne and Sydney in October, after adding extra dates due to skyrocketing demand for tickets.
She originally announced she would perform at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on October 9 and 10, but then added October 13 and 14.
Olivia will also take the stage at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on October 21 and 22, as well as her originally scheduled shows on October 17 and 18.
