Maroon 5's India concert tickets still waiting to be sold!
American pop-rock band Maroon 5, fronted by Adam Levine, will be performing in India for the maiden time on December 3. The concert will be held at the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai. The performance is part of their tour schedule and includes a gig at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix's Yasalam After-Race concert later that week. Despite the excitement surrounding their debut performance, ticket sales have been surprisingly slow with availability still open just days before the event.
Ticket prices and availability for Maroon 5's concert
The tickets for Maroon 5's concert are priced at ₹7,999 (general passes), ₹13,999 (VIP), ₹17,999 (Fan Pit), and ₹24,999 (Kotak Private Lounge tickets) (all excluding taxes). With just four days left for the concert, the tickets are still available on BookMyShow. It is pertinent to note that the pre-sale of these tickets started on November 6 with a general sale on November 8.
Comparing Maroon 5's ticket sales to other concerts
The slow ticket sales for Maroon 5's concert are quite unusual, especially given the recent frenzy over tickets for Coldplay and Diljit Dosanjh's Dil-Luminati tour. Reportedly, tickets for these events were sold out within minutes of going live. This stark contrast in demand has left many surprised as Maroon 5 is known for their hit tracks like Sugar, Memories, Moves Like Jagger, etc.
