2. Create a budget for yourself before the ticket sale starts to avoid getting swept up in “dynamic pricing,” which can make things worse when you’re not able to weed out tickets that are outside your price range.

5. If you’re a verified fan, register for pre-sales to increase your chances of getting into the event early on.

6. Verified fan presales work a little like a lottery system so you’ll need to wait to hear whether or not you’ve been picked up for a pre-sale.
