Brand New confirm intimate UK dates: here’s how to get tickets first

Brand New are BACK, and they’ve announced a string of intimate UK shows this June.

Now there’s a sentence we feared we’d never get to write…

After unveiling their first slice of new material for 8379386287 years (we’re exaggerating, a little) with Mene, the influential foursome will play a handful of UK shows as part of their European run this summer.

Brand New will tour this June:

01 – RNCM Concert Hall, Manchester
02 – Art School, Glasgow
03 – Glee Club, Birmingham
04 – Brooklyn Bowl, London

Tickets are expected to fly, so we’ve narrowed down some top tips to improve your chances when they go on sale this Friday (17 April) at 09:00.

1. Open your account and log in, like, now

Get the basics covered before tickets go on sale by logging in and checking your Ticketmaster account ahead of time. Give those passwords a good old checking, as well as your delivery address and billing information; this will all reduce any unnecessary stress when processing your order later on. Head to Ticketmaster.co.uk and log in to your account to get started.

2. Hands off the refresh button

Put all your faith in one browser window when you’re waiting in the virtual queue, and steer clear of the refresh button. Refreshing means you’ll lose your place in the queue and, as frustrating as the timer can be, patience is the only way to win this game.

Ticketmaster is equipped with sophisticated systems that are designed to manage and process ticket purchases as quickly as possible. The queuing system that appears on your screen is actually doing something and will place you at the front of the line as soon as possible.

3. Open the direct link to Brand New tickets

You don’t need us to tell you how much of a big deal this tour is going to be, right? Right. Open this link to Brand New tickets for 09:00 on Friday 17 April and select the show you’re after. We’ll have tickets for the Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham shows when they go on sale.

4. Keep up to date with last minute news

If anything changes before tickets go on sale, our Twitter followers are first to find out. Keep up to date with aaaall the latest news at Twitter.com/TicketmasterUK and Facebook.com/TicketmasterUK.

We’ll send real time updates as the general sale happens, including any technical difficulties that might occur and alerts on when new tickets come available.

5. Don’t miss the sale on Friday

Set your alarms, folks! Brand New tickets go on general sale Friday 17 April at 09:00. Tickets will be available at Ticketmaster.co.uk. Remember we’ll have Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham tickets.
