Etihad teams up with Flash to offer new allocation for 'sold out' show

More Madonna tickets released

Eithad has teamed up with Flash Entertainment to offer Madonna fans another chance to purchase tickets to watch her first performance in the Middle East next month.

The shows, which will take place at the recently renamed du Arena on June 3rd and 4th, had allegedly sold out of their 44,000 ticket allocation over the two days. It is unclear if this is a new allocation, or a planned promotion.

Most of the packages are ticket and hotel bundles, though the firm is offering standalone tickets.

Earlier this year, promoters Flash warned that tickets purchased from touts would not be honoured. At that time, there were 158 listing Madonna tickets on sale via online classifieds site Dubizzle.com. One of these listings was advertising two ‘Golden Circle’ passes for AED13,000 (US$3,500). In contrast, Eithad is offering a Golden Circle ticket for AED1,125.
