At 10a GMT, tickets went on sale for
One Love Manchester, Ariana Grande’s star-studded benefit concert happening this Sunday, and by 10:06a they were completely sold out.
The venue can hold 50,000 people, and the people, who went to the May 22nd show, all receive free tickets if they want them. In order to make sure the original ticket holders are accommodated, Ticketmaster will reopen registration at 2p GMT.
The great news about the concert selling out is that we are showing the terrorists they didn’t win. We are going to go on and not let them stop us. That message is loud and clear.
The bad news is that some of the today’s ticket buyers are scalping tickets for a profit. This is a benefit show, not a for profit. I hope the scalpers give their profits to the Red Cross Manchester Fund.
Update: Little Mix and Robbie Williams will join Grande, Justin Bieber, Niall Haron, Miley Cyrus, Take That, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Usher, Pharrell, Oasis and Black Eyed Peas on stage this Sunday.

I’d imagine the security will be *rather* tight.
