Tickets for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 grand final sold out in just 36 minutes, with tickets for all shows also selling out an hour later. \n<\/p>\n
The tickets went on sale at midday for the nine live shows, which are set to take place at Liverpool\u2019s M&S Bank Arena in May.<\/p>\n
\nTickets for #Eurovision2023<\/a> have now sold out. Fans still wanting to purchase tickets should keep an eye on Ticketmaster’s fan-to-fan resale if tickets become available.<\/p>\n

The UK city is hosting Eurovision<\/a> on behalf of last year\u2019s winners Ukraine, as the country is unable to stage the event due to Russia\u2019s invasion in February last year.<\/p>\n
Ticketmaster\u2019s platform crashed under the weight of Eurovision fans with a number of fans reporting errors when reaching the front of the queue.<\/p>\n
\nThanks for nothing, Ticketmaster. 1:30 waiting for this, when it was finally my turn, an error. What a disgrace. pic.twitter.com\/rWfX2h5zVV<\/a><\/p>\n

According to a report from the Mirror<\/a> newspaper, Ticketmaster also suffered outages leading up to the start of the onsale.<\/p>\n
Ticket prices<\/a> ranged from \u00a330 to \u00a3290 for the semi-finals and the dress rehearsals, and \u00a380 to \u00a3380 for the grand final. Roughly 6,000 tickets were on sale for each show, which is lower than the arena\u2019s 11,000 capacity because of the production requirements.<\/p>\n
It was also recently announced that the UK Government had allocated 3,000 tickets<\/a> for displaced Ukrainians living in the UK.<\/p>\n
