The presale for Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine UK tour descended into chaos on Tuesday after Ticketmaster UK crashed under massive demand, leaving thousands of fans stranded in endless queues.
Social media quickly erupted with frustration. Many users reported being stuck for hours in virtual lines, while others faced error messages just as they reached checkout. Within minutes, hashtags like #Ticketmaster and #ArianaGrande were trending worldwide, filled with memes, complaints, and despair.
Screenshots showed fans waiting behind thousands of others in the queue, with one viral post reading: “I had front-row tickets in my cart and Ticketmaster just kicked me out. This is emotional trauma.” Another joked: “At this point Ariana should just perform in my living room.”
Netizens were quick to blame Ariana’s team for choosing Ticketmaster, calling it the “worst platform as always” for high-demand sales. Many argued that alternative systems should have been considered, given Ticketmaster’s history of outages during big-name presales.
Despite the outrage, demand for Grande’s shows remains sky-high, with fans determined to fight through the technical mess in hopes of grabbing seats.
