Paris - Stade De France (2025 August 02-03)

[delicate hull]

Hope is long gone when it comes to SOME younger people 💀

[trim marsh]

I see what you mean vro

I have 2 younger brothers

[tranquil obsidian]

Definitely, just being hopeful & positive here XD

[tranquil obsidian]

There’s a saying about stupid people or idiots "the last idiot isn’t born yet" & sadly it’s very true haha

[trim marsh]

we just getting started

💔

[delicate hull]

Ofc. I catch myself sometimes thinking in a way some elders do. something like: the youth of today...it's getting worse and worse(how they behave and stuff)

God I'm getting old haha

[tranquil obsidian]

at least we’re not ||americans||

[trim marsh]

facts

[trim marsh]

I do too wtf

[tranquil obsidian]

Haha I think it’s mostly just youths in general, it’s just that you’re able to read or hear more about it today from online etc

@delicate hull I also wrote #1341818991454195814 message btw with all necessary info that you might need for the actual concert so you can check that when it gets closer because I’ll edit it if needed too

[delicate hull]

True, True. I just entered the 30s club this year so I consider myself as a well behaved adult now lol.

That's great. That should help a lot of people. Thanks for making that post 👍🏻

[tranquil obsidian]

Haha, good for you! & 30s club is when life really begins anyway
Ofc, I’m happy to help

[delicate hull]

Yea..., but what's also true is, what they say about turning 30... The moment you turn 30, every bone in your body begins to crack here and there and when you get out of bed in the morning it feels like your well above 60/70 years old. 😄 (At least for me as an unfit person that's the case)

[tranquil obsidian]

Haha, Lee Know in SKZ who is born 1998 is complaining about this already or every time he has to stand up & he’s the dance leader hello 😂 even more funny. Maybe he will play it up even more once he actually hits 30. You would maybe benefit just by doing some stretches & light yoga 😊 but some also likes to remind you that after 30 everything goes downhill 😄 but I still stand by life beginning at 30 haha

[delicate hull]

That's actually really funny 🤣 I mean they work hard (physically), so no wonder he complains about it.

Don't get me wrong I'm actually doing some kind of workout. But it's more like regularly irregularly, if you know what I mean. In short, I only do it if I feel like it and that does not happen that often.

I'm not the one reminding others that it only goes down after 30, but I think so myself sometimes, even though I really try not to, as I already slept through my 20s and need to catch up with some things in life. So there's no place for thinking in a negative way. It seems like you're an optimist. I like that. Wish I could see things more positively in the future (working on it😇)

[trim marsh]

30????

[tranquil obsidian]

don’t be silly or do ageism

[trim marsh]

I'm always silly

[tranquil obsidian]

you can be silly but still not do ageism, that is silly on another level

[tranquil obsidian]

ofc he’s allowed to be tired etc when they do work hard, but it’s funny that the leader gets shit for being older basically but yet LK is the second oldest & the one complaining the most. & while you can get more tired or not do as much as you age etc so it might be true even for them, he’s still the most experienced at dancing & he’s always worked out pretty much daily so with that in mind it’s a bit funny that he’s making sounds as he stands up or recently they switched their solos for the fan meeting & after performing it he said ’you have to be 1 year younger to do this dance, this dance is only for younger people’ 😂 & the maknae who do originally have the solo is only 2½ years younger after all 😄 but I can understand him, I’m a tired cat always too

my mama says that about 30 sometimes 😄 while it’s true in a way you shouldn’t take it literally. 30’s is the new 20’s etc. 20’s is just when you start experiencing your young adult life, your brain is not even fully developed until 25 & far from everyone has their life figured out in their 20’s, everyone have different lives/experiences/paths so while I understand it’s easy to compare with others, we have to realise we’re not all the same & we can only live our own life & compare with ourselves. there’s no such thing as "too late", there’s always time & you’re allowed to change your mind, there’s people changing their careers completely or deciding to do something completely different after 50 too etc. so I wouldn’t say you need to catch up since you shouldn’t compare, instead you can try to see it as you wanting to reach whatever goals you have & it’s okay if it still takes time to get there, life is not a race & you don’t win anything by rushing or stressing either, sometimes it can even be better if things take their time 😊 I’m sure you will be able to see things more positively in the future as well & the older you get the calmer/wiser you will become haha

[delicate hull]

I know you're probably just being silly but as a reminder Jisoo also turned 30 this year. Although she still looks like early 20s.

[delicate hull]

Seems like SKZ would be a great choice to follow them more actively aswell. But that would be another rabbit hole I'd have to dive into and I have too many already. I'm also afraid I don't have enough time for that as of right now 😄. For now I'm fine listening to some of their songs.

[delicate hull]

very very well said (written)! I really appreciate it. I'm sorry that I can't say much more as I'm a bit lost for words when it comes to english conversations (the ones that get a little deeper) 😄. I understand everything but when it comes to speaking or writing in english myself, I always like to use words that are more fitting but those are the ones I can't remember quick enough to actually use them. Probably not enough practice in it aswell.

[limber birch]

So already France has a very poor level in English and makes no effort to improve so in general when people come and they are foreigners, they don't want to be bothered with that, then Paris is a big city where everything goes very quickly, there are a lot of people and Parisians are rather bitter so yes it is possible that people ignore you, just as it is possible that French people ignore French people, it simply depends on the person you come across

and if I speak from my point of view, even if I am not from Paris, I hate being approached in the street for whatever reason, even if I can stop to talk then that plays a role too, especially if we take into account that it will be the middle of summer, with lots of tourists and probably heat, yes it can happen

just like people can be very nice, if you go around the Stade de France, you will have no problem talking to people, they will all be nice but for example in the metro or that kind of thing, people do not want to be disturbed or just the fact of having a lot of people can disturb

and then of course it's logical but when it's men (I don't know your gender so I prefer to say it) it will surely be frowned upon

[delicate hull]

Thank you for this! I should clarify that I'm also not someone who walks around a city and starts talking to some random people. I totally understand that most people want to mind their own business (I also prefer to do so) and don't want to talk to strangers. I was more concerned about the interactions with someone that I have to talk with. For example in a store, restaurant, hotel, etc.

I really shouldn't be worried that much when I think about how many tourists come to Paris every year. If it really was that bad I guess no one would visit the city anymore. Also as long as I'm being respectful and try to use a couple of french phrases that I learned by then, it should be fine.

[somber yoke]

It really depends on who you get, the person can be super nice or super mean... I know the answer doesn't help you. So I'd say that generally if you're polite to them and ask for help from someone who isn't too busy it should be fine. I'll also be in Paris all weekend by the way, if we run into each other I might be able to help you!

[somber yoke]

Have you ever been to Paris? Where are you from?

Oh you're lucky, for me it's a 3 hour train ride, but it's still reasonable!!

Comment ça !? Tu n'as quand même pas honte de vivre en France j'espère 🥲

[trim marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/jennie-jennierubyjane-jane-ruby-blackpink-gif-4497691427588760552

well tell you what

[delicate hull]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on that aswell. And thanks for offering your help. It's not like I'm not able to handle the situation if an interaction with locals is maybe not that great. It's more like I thought it would be good to know beforehand what to expect in Paris. So I wont get that surprised when I'm actually there. 😄

No, I've never been in Paris or France in general. I'm from Germany coming by train.

[frank oak]

Hi, does anyone got the view from P12 from the last concert? can you see both stages from P12?

[tranquil obsidian]

I can't find P12 specifically but you can see section P11 which I assume should be next to it & give you an idea? at aviewfrommyseat

[frank oak]

woah uki tysm! according to the map I think this is my view in august

[tranquil obsidian]

here is the illustrated map too that you can check so based on that you can see that P12 is next to the PIT/extended stage so you should be able to see them well!

[frank oak]

Will the front stage lower than the main stage or they r the same height?

[tranquil obsidian]

I don't know, probably around the same height I would assume

[delicate hull]

I was curious aswell since I got a seat in basically the same block just at the opposite side of the stage (P15). Here's a Screenshot of a video I found on YT from the Born Pink Encore Concert. The extended stage there does actually look slightly lowered compared to the main stage (at least from this POV). But keep in mind that this can be different for the upcoming tour. Also the stage will be different with two walkways(sry, don't know the correct word for it 😄) instead of one.

[frank oak]

I think it would be different too since now it has a pit in the middle so we might be push a bit to the sides maybe?

[golden minnow]

I know it’s probably too early for that, but what would be the odds that the venue will sell lightsticks? I wanna get one, but idk if I should pray to buy one there or order one online somewhere

[chrome oracle]

The French people may not be the warmest but they have never been rude to me either. It’s unreasonable for all tourists to know French so they are used to it. If you know Bonjour, Bonsoir and Merci you’ll be golden!

[chrome oracle]

The odds of the venue selling the lightstick is 95% - they wanna make loads of money and overpriced merch is the way to go. The lightstick at the venue could be around 80€, while online they might be closer to 30/40 + shipping.

[tranquil obsidian]

Where the hell do you find one for that low unless they’re second hand or something? Most kpop shops sell lightsticks for around 80€, which is why I was surprised that Lisa lightstick is a bit cheaper
(not cursing at you btw haha, just wondering because of the price just to be clear :))

[tranquil obsidian]

Definitely buy it beforehand online if you want to buy it for the cheapest price possible

(some shops also have discount codes)

[chrome oracle]

Here https://shop.weverse.io/en/shop/USD/artists/32/sales/9619

But the shipping will probably be a lot

[golden minnow]

Thank you! I’ll get one online then

🩶

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah, this is the problem. It seems cheaper when only looking at the price at Korean sites but you have to add shipping + then you will get customs added on to that as well so the total price is not cheaper than just getting one from a EU kpop shop

[golden minnow]

I don’t mind paying extra for shipping. Just worried that if I wait and get one in Paris, they might not have it

So I’d rather pay more but ensure I actually get it

[chrome oracle]

Last tour they had an abundance of merch!

My lightstick version 1 broke a little while back so my plan right now is to wait a little to see if they’ll release a version 3 before the tour

[golden minnow]

That’s actually not a bad idea. I’ll wait if they release a new one and if not, I’ll get the version 2 online somewhere

[trail turtle]

I'm a French Blink but I only went to Paris once and it was with my family when I was 11 so idk

I wanted to go both days but idk if my friend (with who I go) wants to so...

Sorry you talked a lot, I didn't read everything lmao

[delicate hull]

If your friend doesn't want or can't go both days, maybe consider to go solo on one day? If you are afraid of going alone let me tell you, that you can have the same amount of fun and joy as if you were there with friends. I've been to concerts with friends and on my own in the past. I was a bit worried before I attended the first one solo but the moment I arrived at the venue all the negative thoughts in my head about going alone were gone. And that is coming from someone who is generally very introverted.

[delicate hull]

Yup, I can't get to the point most of the time, I apologize😅

[trail turtle]

I'm not afraid to go alone (but my mother is) but since I'm going to Paris with my best friend, we'll go home together haha

[trail turtle]

Don't worry ! You can write as much as you want

[delicate hull]

You seem to have a great mom who wants you to be safe. Especially if you're younger it's better to not have to travel home alone or back to the hotel. I also heard that the area(Saint Denis) around the Stadium can be dangerous late at night and even by day.

[trail turtle]

Yess (I'll be 19 for the concert)
Yes I'v heard too, we won't take a hotel in this area I think, my mom gave me some advices but I don't remember what she told me (we'll know when we get organized!)

[delicate hull]

Be quick with the booking though. Prices will only go up by time (At least in my experience). I always like to get a hotel room near the venue to be able to walk back without having to take public transportation but this time I looked at the options I have on the same day I got the concert ticket. All nearby hotels were fully booked out. Now that I know the area is not that secure I'm somehow glad I didn't get a hotel nearby. 😊

[trail turtle]

Yess Ik, I think we will book soon (but it''s complicated because my best friend's mother MAY want to come with us to Paris but we don't know yet, so to book etc we're waiting to find out, honestly I don't want her to come so I can enjoy myself with my best friend)
Ohhh great yes

[vital heron]

Guys do you know any good hotel close to the venue?

[golden minnow]

I'm in the same boat 💀 I have 3 tickets so Instead of just bringing my brother along, I wanna see if his girlfriend wants to go as well. That's why I haven't booked anything yet

[delicate hull]

Relatable more fun without parents, right? Haha

[golden minnow]

Your best bet would be to probably look at booking.com and pick the location where the venue is

[gilded swift]

I can make a group for 1st day, to go safe from the stadium to porte de Montreuil lmao

[trail turtle]

Haha 💀 (her mother doesn't want to come with us to the concert but only to Paris, but she didn't tell us if she was coming or not 💀)

[trail turtle]

Yess !

[golden minnow]

People don't tell you how stressful booking trips is, when you are the one doing it rather than just tagging along

💀

[trail turtle]

I've never booked anything, but I live 400km away from Paris and my mom wants to help us book etc so it should be fine
We're just waiting to find out if my best friend's mom is coming with us or not 🥲🥲

[gilded swift]

You have nice people planning your trips, if I don't plan anything my friends would just not do anything until last minute

So I'm less stressed planning every single thing

[golden minnow]

You got this

[delicate hull]

That's the exact way I did it, haha. After comparing I found one that is cheap and still fine for me considering distance to the stadium. But I have to take the metro or a Bus but it's only 2 stops for the metro if I recall correctly.

[golden minnow]

If my brother's girlfriend is going, I think i'll book myself a hotel and them an airbnb cause i don't wanna third wheel 💀

[trail turtle]

I don't know if it's good but my mother advised me to take Uber to go to the hotel after the concert, we are safe in a car that comes to pick us up at the stadium and take s us directly to the hotel, and it's better in terms of comfort
But I don't know the prices at all and I've only been to Paris once so I've never taken an Uber

[delicate hull]

I never took an Uber ever before. Depending on what they charge you for that, I might do that aswell. Altough I think as long as I head back to the hotel while other concert goers are there it should be fine to take the metro. I think the stations next to the stadium gotta be packed with people after the concert ends.

[trail turtle]

Oh yes, a metro full of blinks

[delicate hull]

Concert After-Party in the metro!! 🥳

[golden minnow]

I'd be down for that. Gonna stand there awkwardly and wave my lightstick around

[trail turtle]

Yess with the lightsticks on !!

[golden minnow]

Great minds think alike

[trail turtle]

I've only the ver.1 but I think is good

[trail turtle]

Yayyy

[golden minnow]

The version 2 is gonna be my first ever lightstick

[delicate hull]

I still need to get one. The one I had got stolen on the Born Pink tour (I'm not making this up) 💀

[golden minnow]

💀 people even steal lightsticks which are already readily available? Damn

[delicate hull]

yea there are always those special kind of people I guess. Even at concerts

[trail turtle]

EWWW how it got stolen 💀

[trail turtle]

Omggg

My first and only lightstick is the ver.1 but I want to buy the ver.2 also

[golden minnow]

I wanted an Aespa one, cause i went to see them this month, but couldn't get one at the venue

[trail turtle]

Oh noooo

[delicate hull]

It was right after the concert ended I had placed my Lightstick on my seat. And I took a couple of pics from the arena. (I was literally standing just in front of my seat but with my back facing the seat) The moment I turned around it was gone. And no it didn't fall down or sth. like that 😄

[trail turtle]

It's really not cool to do that 😞 there are people who are really mean

[delicate hull]

Yea you can't trust anyone in this world anymore haha. That's also the reason I'm hesitating to buy a new one. It is what it is.

[trail turtle]

I understand... I think I'll keep my lightstick in my hands throughout the concert

[delicate hull]

Didn't mean to make you worry about your stuff now. I bet it was just one bad person that did that. Like 99% of people at a concert wouldn't even think about stealing from a fellow fan.

[trail turtle]

Yes but as a precaution I will be careful with my lightstick haha but I WANT to take it and experience the concert with it

[tranquil obsidian]

I mean buying from a European online Kpop shop 😊 imusic etc

[tranquil obsidian]

Just keep in mind that for everything you order from Korea or outside of EU you will have to pay both higher shipping AND customs will be added when it arrives in your country. So imo it’s best to buy from a EU kpop shop for sure

[golden minnow]

Where I’m from it’s kinda difficult to ship directly, and there’s a company that handles transportation from US to here so I’d rather pay more and let them deal with it lmao. Thanks for the help though 🩶

[tranquil obsidian]

If you’re in EU it will definitely be the same with ordering from US; higher shipping + added customs. All kpop online shops use normal shipping companies too & you get tracking usually but up to you ofc

[golden minnow]

An even better option would have been if we had any k-pop shops here. Time to switch jobs and open my own

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah, it depends where you live, we don’t have any here in Sweden either unfortunately so you have to just order online. But usually it’s also cheaper online than in store actually

[tranquil obsidian]

Jennie announced as the face of Chanel 25 Handbag Campaign, how happy are you @ancient crystal? If there’s any Jennie postcards or something you better save one for me~

[somber yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/black-pink-jisoo-not-scary-james-corden-gif-14637731

[somber yoke]

Great ! Good luck then !

[trail turtle]

Maybe I will go on the two days !!

[tranquil obsidian]

did you buy tickets to day 2 as well? with your friend I assume?

[trail turtle]

Not yet, but it's not with my friend but with her brother's girlfriend who is Blink ! I asked her to go on the second date with me and she accepted, now I'm waiting to find out who's taking the tickets etc
But I wanted to take the cheapest available (cat 2) but there are no more seats next to each other so i should tell her we have to take cat3
Except that she's not here for two days and she doesn't have a phone so I can't write to her 😭😭
It's not sure if we'll go there haha but maybeeee

I must wait
But my best friend's mom is coming with us with my best friend's brother to Paris so I think the girl I want to go with will come too since she's her brother's girlfriend

[tranquil obsidian]

Ah okay. So you will maybe go to the 2nd day too. & you’re going on quite the family trip but I’m sure you will have fun with your bestie anyway!

[trail turtle]

Yess

[golden minnow]

I might be going alone so I have two extra tickets potentially 😬

The people I was going with pulled out

[frank oak]

I got my tickets through stubhub does anyone had any experience with them before?

[tranquil obsidian]

That sucks & is kinda shitty. But I think we are some people who are going alone too & there’s many who do go solo to concerts so you won’t be alone in that

[golden minnow]

Yeah I know but still being alone in a foreign country is kinda scary, hopefully i manage to find two more people to fill in

[tranquil obsidian]

it depends what you are used to I guess & maybe your age if you have not done that before. I will be travelling too but I’m not worried. as long as you just know where you’re going etc it will be fine. but hopefully you can find 2 other friends to go with you maybe, there’s still some time left too

[golden minnow]

It will be my first time traveling somewhere completely alone and I’m 25. So it will definitely be an experience yeah there’s still time left so I’m not gonna worry too much about it now

[tranquil obsidian]

you should be fine then. just make sure to have everything booked & look up transportation etc (you can get Citymapper app which will tell you all transportation options wherever you are when travelling), and you can always ask people as well or ask for advice here too. it’s a money question too for whoever would come with you but hopefully you know some other friends who would want & be able to go, you get to see Paris as well which should be fun too!

[golden minnow]

Shall do y’all are very helpful, I definitely feel a lot better going into it

[vivid furnace]

there is french blink here ?

[trim marsh]

Welcome

[vivid furnace]

Helllllllooooo❤️

[trim marsh]

Hello

[faint steppe]

Ouep

[chrome brook]

Hi, I just wanted to ask what is the protocol when it comes to freebies ? It's the first time I'm going to a kpop concert and I wanted to know.

I'm thinking about making something myself, but I don't really know what.

[tranquil obsidian]

I’m not sure exactly what you’re wondering so feel free to ask if you have more specific questions. As someone who has been to so many concerts in my life, freebies seems to mainly be a thing at kpop concerts/events & I love the whole concept. Freebies are ofc free, and fans make them to spread happiness/love to other fans & within the community, and people hand them out to others outside of the venue before or after the concert usually 😊
Freebies can be anything from official photo cards, lomo cards/fan made photo cards, bracelets (very popular, probably because it’s also easy enough for many to create), key rings, phone charms, stickers, etc. you can also search for kpop or concert freebies to see what others are doing or have created & find inspiration that way, there are really so many different things you can create so it just depends what you want to create or what you have time/budget for etc as well

[chrome brook]

Thank you. Your answer is really helpful.

[tranquil obsidian]

This was my creating process for Ateez freebie photo cards! 🤭 I’m currently working on all of my SKZ freebies so I’ll see in July if I’ll also create some for Blackpink~

[trail turtle]

I CANT wait

[trail turtle]

Yayyy

If you give me freebies I will buy a photocard holder and I'll hang it on my bag

[tranquil obsidian]

Aww, that is so cute & so sweet of you, that would be the biggest compliment really! 🥹 I had one of my own creations in a photocard holder on my bag for Ateez~ maybe I should continue doing that for SKZ + Blackpink too, & if someone asks about it I could offer them freebies.

I’ll let you know when it gets closer if I end up making BP freebies, or link the post about it here, and then we ofc have to meet up so I can give you freebies! my current project is for 3 concerts so I can’t promise it since I’m focusing on that right now. I’m very curious to see their comeback photos though because those are what I would use + maybe performance photos from their recent solo performances like Coachella etc, or if they all go to fashion week that makes it easy for me when it comes to finding good photos

[trail turtle]

Okayyy, I understand, if u can't make freebies It doesn't matter! The important thing is that we all have fun

[golden minnow]

Speaking of freebies, I have a bunch of Rose postcards from her Rosie album that are just collecting dust, so I might bring those and give them away to anyone who wants any

[trail turtle]

Ohh yayyy
Rosé is my bias

[tranquil obsidian]

oh yes, you should definitely do that! I would be happy to trade freebies with you as well if I end up making them~

[limber birch]

YES PLEAAAAAASE

[somber yoke]

yeahhh ofc

[delicate hull]

By any chance, do you guys know if ticketmaster.fr opens up an official resale at some point? 👀 (I hope I'm not that blind that you gonna tell me it's already available 😅) I know it's a dumb question to ask as probably no one will have an answer. Unless you are working for ticketmaster 😄.

Ticketmaster UK for example had a resale shortly after the tickets for the London Concert went on sale... 🤔 I also noticed that the french version of TM seems to be different compared to the UK or german version, so that they independently choose to start the resale closer to the concert date, maybe?

[vital heron]

I was bought resale ticket in born pink tour for berlin and it was 1-1.5 month before the concert. But idk if it will be the same for france. You should check it constantly

[delicate hull]

Thanks, I'm already checking every week 😄.
I know the concert is still 3 months away, but I have one ticket that I'd like to sell and I want to sell it the official/legal way, if possible. Guess I just have to wait a bit longer.

[vital heron]

Time is going by so slowly to wait that 3 months

[delicate hull]

Does it really? For me time flies by like it's nothing lately. 😄
One could argue it's ONLY 3 months.

I'm still waiting for an official comeback announcement because I can't believe how they would start a tour without new group music. Unless YG is only after the money and thinks they can do a tour without new songs (except the solo stuff) and get away with it. Sad thing is they would be able to do exactly that and people would buy tickets regardless. Can't blame anyone who attends if that really happens as I'm one of them. But my hopes are still high that this wont happen, and a comeback announcement is closer than we think. 😊

[limber birch]

a comeback Will be released in May

[delicate hull]

Well, I hope so too. Do you have an actual source for stating that, or is it just a rumour? 🙃

[chrome oracle]

No sources, only vibes

✨

People are just expecting the comeback in either May or June because it would be silly to tour without a new album but..

Anything’s possible imo

[vital heron]

If i think concert day yes, but i cannot stop thinking and dreaming that day. I'm hyping up more and more every day

[tranquil obsidian]

I checked myself just in case & it’s not activated yet anyway. You would get the best reply to this by contacting them directly to ask though. Sometimes they open it just a few weeks after tickets released, sometimes some month before the concert but I also know that resale isn’t always activated for every concert, so it’s best to contact them to ask.

[tranquil obsidian]

Time is definitely flying away so we will be at the concert in no time! I’ve only seen info about comeback happening in either May or June.
For anyone who is saying anything about them dropping tickets before concert I don’t really get, because we all bought tickets anyway because we want to see them as fans so it doesn’t matter if they had a comeback or not because we would still like to see them. Instead it’s also proof how well they’re doing that they can do this & still sell out STADIUMS, but it’s not surprising to me at all as one of the most successful girl groups ever~

[delicate hull]

Thanks for the advice. I just wait a couple weeks more and will do that when it is still not available in June or so.

[delicate hull]

I 100% agree with you that it doesn't really matter if they have a comeback and release new music before the tour starts or not. Only thing that matters is the opportunity to see them live again or even for the first time. And it's not like we wont be able to see anything new, since we most likely get to see some of their new solo songs performed live. What I tried to say is that it would just feel a bit rushed by YG when they actually got no new stuff for their most successful group prepared. That's just my opinion, I hope this won't come off as disrespectful or negative.

Maybe, it was just not do-able time wise, with all 4 working hard on their solo careers. With that said I'm looking forward to the upcoming tour like nothing else and I'm sure everyone who is able to attend one of their shows will enjoy it. With or without a comeback. 😊

[golden minnow]

Did anyone else get this email from ticketmaster about BP tickets?

[vital heron]

I didn't get it

[golden minnow]

I can’t even log in rn to check my tickets, I’m confused

[tranquil obsidian]

did you get this email in your email account? have you checked that it's sent from an actual TM email account so it's not some weird scam email, or did you book your tickets from another site? I have not received anything either & this sounds a bit weird ;o

[golden minnow]

Uhh the email was [email protected] so i assume it's legit? I just checked my account and still have the tickets so i think they just sent it by mistake, hopefully anyway. And yeah it was sent to the email associated with my ticketmaster france account

[tranquil obsidian]

I would think their email would only end with @ ticketmaster.fr but it does seem to be an existing email address of theirs. Do you have the exact same tickets you ordered with same numbers etc in your account still? I would definitely ask them about this directly, even if my tickets didn't change. Definitely check within the next days if any other email with tickets show up like the email suggests. It's definitely a scary mistake if they did send it out by mistake.

[golden minnow]

I just checked and they did in fact change one of my tickets. I had two tickets for P46 seats 2 and 21, but now it's seats 21 and 22. So I think it was indeed some sort of error, as described in the email. I'm not using those two tickets anyway so I think i would have been fine regardless, those are just extras now cause my friends aren't going with me anymore

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh okay, it's good that it only affected the specific tickets you are no longer using, so it didn't affect the ticket you will be using. you were going to try finding others who would like to join you or otherwise sell them if I remember correctly?

[golden minnow]

Yeah I wanted to find more people to go with but no luck so far so I think I’ll just slowly book stuff and fly solo. It will still be a good experience

[vital heron]

Which day u going

?

[golden minnow]

August 2nd so day 1

[vital heron]

Oh I will go day 2

But definitely u can find someone to go together

On the first day I will also go to the venue maybe we can meet if u can't find someone

[golden minnow]

If I don’t it’s fine, it will still be a good time

[tranquil obsidian]

I would definitely advise you to book things asap since flights/accommodation will only get more expensive the closer it gets too + it's already expensive since it's in tourist season. & yes, definitely, I'm also going there solo & we will definitely have a great experience either way since we get to see them & I'm sure we will have nice Blinks around us as well & if you wanted to trade freebies or at least give yours away we can at least meet up before to exchange those & say hi~

[vital heron]

I've listened you before and I've booked all of them and the prices get very expensive

I agree with you

[tranquil obsidian]

aww, I'm glad that my advice is helpful~ I definitely would've booked my flights/hotel earlier if I could, because the longer you wait or the closer to the date it gets, it just gets more & more expensive.

[golden minnow]

yep, gotta start booking soon, we will have a great time regardless! I will be bringing my Rose postcards and giving them away so we can definitely meet up i don’t mind just gifting them to whoever wants some with no freebies in return. They are sat in my drawer collecting dust

[tranquil obsidian]

yes, you definitely should! I don't remember if you've said where you're based, but for flights I used booking.com but definitely check supersavertravel + skyscanner as well to see where it's cheapest to book. & I booked my hotel through algotels.com which had the best price for both of my trips in July so I can recommend it~
that is very nice of you & it's ofc the whole point with freebies too, but when creating freebies myself it's nice to trade with others too even if I do give most of them away to whoever wants them, I'm not 100% sure right now but I will probably end up creating some BP freebies anyway last min because I won't be able to help myself from creating some to bring, so please do save a postcard for me & I will give you freebies in return too

[golden minnow]

I’m from Europe, Georgia specifically so booking.com will probably be the easiest way. Ofc I’ll save you a few i have 15 of them so Rose biases or anyone else, hit me up! Thank you for being helpful like always

[vital heron]

You’ve helped me a lot during this process, I’m really thankful❤️

[trim marsh]

Email from the official email?

Personally I didn't get anything, probably because I got it D1

Hi -
Someone know how to sell a ticket on ticketmaster ?
Idk-
I just want to make it safe
Its for blackpink 2 august in france
I don't want to just send it on social media ;-;

[tranquil obsidian]

Hi, I’m not sure if Resale is activated on Ticketmaster site? in that case, you can just put click on the Resale button to go through to put up your ticket for Resale & it will show up as a available ticket to buy with all the other tickets on Ticketmaster. If TM Resale isn’t available, I would suggest trying to sell it through Ticketswap, otherwise you can also try announcing that you are selling a ticket in fan servers where they offer that as an option, like in #1343774070189068428 or kpop europe concerts server etc.

[shadow wasp]

how much does a 24h ticket cost to travel within Paris?

[faint steppe]

https://www.ratp.fr/titres-et-tarifs

~12€ if im not wrong

I do not live in paris so im not sure

[shadow wasp]

I don't really know yet. I have about a thousand visions of how I will look.

[trim marsh]

Im not really a big merch clothing person so

🤔

In eitherway we have less than 80 days now

[vital heron]

Yeah ur right i was thinking about it im going with my sister do you have any recommendation for us

[trim marsh]

I have 0 idea even for myself

😭

[twin plover]

My mom is even gonna buy something in blackpink haha

[trim marsh]

I have the lightstick and some albums

Not a big collection but it's something

[twin plover]

Imma buy a lightstick at the concert cuz

I dont wnana get scammed

[trim marsh]

if I dont say anything wrong I have

[trim marsh]

oh and for ruby I obv have the pre-order one with the signed photo

couldn't miss out on some jennie goodies

Hi malin
what are we typing today

[tranquil obsidian]

I have 3 concerts to think about before this one. I do have a kind of crop top I randomly found at H&M last summer that has a small on it, so it’s subtle enough to look like any other top & only Blinks will recognise the heart. I wouldn’t wear actual merch to a concert though, but everyone should wear what they want & are comfy in

[tranquil obsidian]

Just ask your sister, she can style you both

[vital heron]

😂 no doubtl

[tranquil obsidian]

I assume she doesn’t use Discord or she should join the server & this thread too~

[vital heron]

She has a exam in june. So she is not using computer or mobile phone. She works hard for it

Just for communicate with parents

Last week she was asked ai to generate blackpink concert outfit for brother&sister 😂

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh, she’s very busy then & the concert some month after will be a nice reward for her hard work too!

[vital heron]

She cares a lot about to outfit

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh, AI really sucks though -_- it just steals work from real artists etc. I would suggest to search for outfit inspo for this on Pinterest, or maybe YouTube or IG

[vital heron]

For sure, I hope it will be one of the best summer for her

[vital heron]

It's probably just for fun

[tranquil obsidian]

I can confirm that outfits are very important haha, to us at least. But still, you should wear what you’re comfortable in so no pressure

[vital heron]

I agree with it

[vital heron]

Definitely

when we talk with my sister she tells about her make up 😂

She is very excited

[tranquil obsidian]

Haha, I assume that you’re maybe not very knowledgeable about or into makeup, but it’s indeed also important. I’ll just use lots of glitter

[vital heron]

She says that she will make black and pink glitter on her face 😂

[faint steppe]

Damnn slayy, which photocards you got ?

[trim marsh]

I need to checkk

um

[faint steppe]

Lemme show you mine 😈

[trim marsh]

ok lets see

found one

[tranquil obsidian]

I only use more subtle glitter so white & transparent etc, but I can see others doing this, and there will be many wearing black & pink outfits just because those colours are literally in the name

[faint steppe]

I got these

Damn i hate dc quality...

And i had jisso's album too

This one

I gave the others to my cousin 🙂‍↕️

Love the pcs. As for the outfits, do you think it would be okay to wear trousers ? I imagine in august it would be quite hot in Paris, but i don't have the standing tickets, and the concert is in the evening so it should be okay, right ?

[tranquil obsidian]

this happened some days ago now but basically 2 girls, the 2nd stating she's involved in project organisation yet the fanbase acc didn't reply themselves or step in at any time, thought it was okay or normal behaviour to curse at me on Twitter for translating their video project post + also sharing it in here in a big server (missing the fact that there's ~40 people in here, ironically they need more videos for the project yet she made up some what if about it possibly causing more work for them) & then posting it below the fanbase tweet. while at least 2 other Blinks had already asked for a translation without any reply & others liked my translation post too. you would think a fanbase would have nice & civil people behind it who are able to act normal & professional, yet all this girl did was making anyone connected with her & in turn them look bad and just rude/excluding. still 0 reply from the fanbase themselves & no translations offered to other posts either. definitely not normal or okay behaviour

[trim marsh]

Average Twitter interaction

Can't even do something nice without getting hated on

[tranquil obsidian]

I may be in the minority who have a good time on my normal Twitter timeline so this ruined my peace 😄 but it was really this, make it make sense how it's somehow wrong to want to help out other fans + sharing a PUBLIC post from a fanbase with other fans? make the whole damn acc private if you don't want info shared with other fans or want to be excluding to all non-french speakers too

[limber birch]

It's absolutely not to defend them but I don't think I've seen a proper translation for the other concerts either, as the fanbase is French it will favor French fans, and given that many people who don't live in France buy tickets it can annoy them, then I think that if you translated their posts without asking their permission they could potentially have thought it was copying etc, I don't find insults and this kind of behavior normal either, but 🤷🏽‍♀️

and for the video project, I think that people mainly wanted French people and those living in France, since they come to Paris

[shadow wasp]

Did they receive enough french blinks vids...

Is the project closed by now?
My last update was when the deadline was over but they still asked for vids

[trim marsh]

Its closed now

[shadow wasp]

I wonder if the Album will be dropped before, at or after the concert

[golden minnow]

Hopefully before so they can perform some songs from it

[tranquil obsidian]

Well, you’re proving my point then that they’re being excluding to all Blinks who aren’t French. Other EU fanbases translates all posts automatically & it’s understood by everyone that fans from other EU countries will come to whatever country since kpop acts don’t really do full EU tours like other western artists. Fan projects should then be open for all who are going to the concert.

[tranquil obsidian]

They had to open up submissions for minors too because they didn’t receive enough videos 😄

[limber birch]

before

[limber birch]

Oh yeah, I never said your point of view was wrong. I just understand the fact that it's favoring the French, and it didn't really matter to translate the project since it's essentially for French fans.
The majority of people on Twitter are underage when it comes to K-pop, or many aren't on Twitter, which explains why. The last time we did a video project, the AEG organization, which was catastrophic, didn't show the video, so a lot of people missed it.

and it's understandable to prioritize French fans for a concert that is in France and not elsewhere

after that if they really want a translation just screen and ask Google to translate

Moreover, if they didn't have enough videos, they could have possibly asked foreign fans to participate.

[tranquil obsidian]

Yes, but being excluding is more important to them it seems.
French SKZ fanbase for example always post in French & English, ofc it’s still a French fanbase & targeted towards France but all EU fans are welcome to enter projects if we’re going to the concert, like it should be.
Anyone who knows about EU kpop concerts knows that EU fans will go to concerts in other countries since we get less & especially if you’re behind a fanbase you should know this basic fact, it’s wild to not be civil towards other fans when interacting with them too

[limber birch]

I agree but for me it's not a huge big deal, if people wanted a translation they just need to screen and look on google translation, and the people who manage the fanbase are aware of that, but if they didn't want to translate it for mainly French fans it's understandable

I almost interpreted it as the "last" tour (or maybe it is )

[trim marsh]

Fake

[faint steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-dancing-real-or-fake-real-fake-gif-26222872

[magic herald]

why is there tickets available again when there was everything sold out at release?
and theyre like even cheaper than on release 😭

[delicate hull]

I saw that as well and I can't get behind why this happens with some concerts. But I shouldn't be surprised... it's ticketmaster we're speaking of. For me it always feels like they hold back some tickets on purpose. When I notice it, it always makes me angry..., like why they can't make ALL seats available when the presale starts? Imagine you got lucky during the presale madness, and months later you see tickets for a better section costing half of what you spent on your tickets.

1 or 2 weeks ago I saw tickets for 2nd/3rd row in front of the stage, for, I think it was, 270€ or even lower. A couple of weeks before that, I saw some of those stupid "Platinum Tickets" (what Ticketmaster calls them) in the same row for about 460€. That just makes me so mad. 😡

Back to your question, why? I could only think of ticketmaster is doing it on purpose, to make it seem like there's a shortage. People then buying tickets in fear of missing out. Then they may even buy them while knowing it's a section with a bad view and TM does this cause they know those tickets are harder to sell. Once they sold these, they make the rest of seats available, which they were holding back the whole time. (That's just my guess though, most likely that I'm completely wrong with my assumptions 😄)

[shadow wasp]

yooo, that's crazy

I even looked for myself

[delicate hull]

I'm also still wondering, when or if, they will open up the official resale service. (Since I got a ticket that I'd like to sell the official/legal way.) I mailed Ticketmaster.fr last week and got a response within a day. But what I received, how else could it be, was a standardized answer saying they activate a resale when the concert organizer (in this case Live Nation) gives them a green light for that. This is basically the same as what they state in they're FAQs. I wanted to contact Live Nation then, but for questions regarding your order they ask you to contact ticketmaster. 🙃
Although there
is a mail adress for general questions, I didn't bother to contact them either, cause I'd assume I get the exact same answer that I got from Tickemaster.

[chrome oracle]

So weird that it isn’t open…

[shadow wasp]

30% of the tickets are prob unsold (somewhere hidden)

[faint steppe]

maybe search on tiktok, theres many ones with a big selection of album

Asked just in case there's a specific one that people can recommend

oh okay sorry i dont live in paris but maybe try la fnac its not a kpop store but there's many albums in a good price

[golden minnow]

Dw, you were still very helpful

[tranquil obsidian]

Boutique Musica (asiaworldmusic.fr) is the main kpop shop I know about in Paris 😊

[golden minnow]

Thank you 💜

[delicate hull]

Update on my attempt to get info about whether there will be a resale and when it might start: After contacting Ticketmaster.fr, who referred to the concert organizer, Live Nation, I contacted them as well. Today, I received an email saying, "Resale is not planned at the moment." They could still, possibly, open a resale in a couple of weeks, but if not...

Has anyone experience in selling a ticket unofficially without problems for themselves and the buyer?
The only way I see this working is to meet the buyer at the stadium and enter together, since the ticket is personalized. If security requests ID, I'll be there.

[chrome oracle]

Honestly….. disgusting how ticketmaster treats the customers. The events were sold out within days and they still haven’t opened resale??

Thanks for attaching the email as well

The audacity

🤯

[delicate hull]

Yup kinda crazy. Seeing Ticketmaster UK had resale open maybe a week after the tickets were online 🤣

[chrome oracle]

Right.. I’m trying to sell my Barcelona tickets (not happening bc Ticketmaster Spain reduced the regular ticket price and added 50€ per resellticket as a fee - so my tickets seem expensive) and it opened within less than a week

[delicate hull]

Aww, that sucks. The fees they put on top are ridiculous. Looks like it's a Ticketmaster France/Live Nation France Issue here.

[chrome oracle]

Ticketmaster does different weird things in every country it seems

✨

At least EU doesn’t have the dynamic pricing thing

[delicate hull]

Thats what they do in the US, right?

[limber birch]

for Billie it’s the same, there is no re sale I think or you need to put ur email and maybe wait for a notifications

I think for Tate McRae the resale open a month before

[delicate hull]

Oooohhh, Thank you so much for mentioning Billie Eilish' concert.🙏🏻😭 I just looked at the TM site and the resale for her concert is active! (I can't look if there are actual tickets being sold right now, as TM blocked me, probably because I accessed their site way to often the last couple of weeks) And I found a reddit post where fans discussed when the resale would open. This post was made about 10 days ago... So they must've opened the resale barely 2 weeks before the concert date. Which is insane, but at the same time gives me new hope for selling my BP ticket through the official resale. 😎

[chrome oracle]

Ticketmaster france has blocked me as well 🤣

Also 2 weeks is criminaaal

[delicate hull]

🤣 We're no bots Ticketmaster please. Maybe a bit too curious people but please we're no bots or something else that want to harm your website... Jokes aside, I looked it up on a different device now. The Resale is definetly active but it seems like either no one wants to sell their ticket or the ones who were offered are all sold, cause there is not a single ticket available. But yea Live Nation seems to be the organizer for this concert as well, so my hopes for a resale are now at an all time high 🤞🏻

[chrome oracle]

Any news? Just gonna wait 2 weeks before the concert and hopefully it’ll open?

[delicate hull]

Well...that doesn't sound like a good strategy, does it? 😅 And no, I don't have any news nor do I know what I'm actually end up doing.
It's either hope for the best and TM opens the resale or I try to sell it on my own or through Viagogo. But the latter is what I want to avoid, if possible. Because, if I'm not wrong, it is legally not allowed to resell theu tickets in any way other than through an official resale platform. (And I know a lot of people selling it anyways and never had issues, but I'm still very hesitant to do this, I just want to avoid getting into trouble.) If I try to sell it myself, I have a sales agreement generated by ChatGPT, which I've attached as a screenshot. I know this is excessive and probably won't prevent legal consequences if something goes wrong, but it's better than nothing.

The last option (to minimize empty seats) would be to give them away for free on the concert day. I could find a Blink attending the concert with a seat far back and ask if they'd like a closer seat. Or I could try to find a random person in Paris on the concert day who has time but no ticket.

[chrome oracle]

The tickets have your name on them (mine do at least) so I guess this is how they avoid the resale via viagogo. It would actually be beneficial for ticketmaster if they allowed resale because they can tack on extra costs.

I am actually attending the Paris show Day 2 and just today sold my Barcelona tickets. The tickets were 399 each, I sold them for 398 but ticketmaster showed the resale price as 450 for the people buying… really rude 🥹 But luckily sold them. Was getting really annoyed tbf

[delicate hull]

Yes, mine are personalized as well. I just stumbled upon viagogo a couple of days ago. I haven't looked into it that much, but I searched for Blackpink(Paris) and there were tickets available in almost every block of the stadium. So, if they wouldn't allow personalized tickets to be sold, wouldn't there be no tickets available at all for this concert? 🤔 I don't know.

Glad to hear you sold yours. 🤗 When I sold tickets on Ticketmaster in the past, I almost always lowered the price to counter the ridiculous resale fee (or whatever Ticketmaster calls it). Otherwise, my tickets would have been more expensive than even non-resale tickets in the same block. Ticketmaster is honestly such a greedy company.

[chrome oracle]

I think the viagogo option isn’t “legal” per se as in Ticketmaster/Live Nation don’t encourage it and the buyers can get scammed pretty easily… But I think this could be a nice option for you since you’re not planning on scamming anyone!

And yes, the resale fees are bonkers. I already paid a fee to buy the tickets, then the huge resale fee + I bet the people buying the tickets had to pay a fee as well on top of it 💀

[delicate hull]

If I sell them on viagogo, it would be about the same as selling on Ticketmaster, meaning I receive the money within five to eight business days after the event, as they state. So it is probably a safer option than selling on my own. If the buyer cannot enter the venue, they would get their money back, and I get nothing. Or I might have to pay a fee because my sold ticket was not valid for the buyer. When selling on my own, I would receive the money before sending the ticket, but I would not use that money until after the concert in case the buyer had issues with my ticket.

Aaaahh!! I can't decide. What should I do... I'm begging you ticketmaster please, open the god damn resale 🙏🏻😭

REVENTE BLACKPINK DEADLINE WORLD TOUR ⚠

Je revends une place pour BLACKPINK au stade de france le 02 août en carré or (P15) 🚨🚨
Au prix d'achat, mais je suis ouvert à toute offre si je galère à vendre la place

Venez dm si vous avez besoin de + d'infos ✨

RT appréciés 🙏🏻

X · Jun 23, 2025, 8:44 AM

I wanted to sell it for the original price but since no one seems to be interested I am opened to any offers

🫶🏻

[tranquil obsidian]

I’ll probably arrive later since the concert isn’t until in the evening, if you have a seat etc it’s enough with just arriving a few hours before

[daring coyote]

Im really used to arriving in the morning not for queuing but for the good vibes

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh wow, ofc it depends if you find that fun & have people to hang out with as well 😊 I have a seat so I’ll probably just go there a few hours before max since I’m alone too, unless I meet up with someone

[daring coyote]

I would love to meet up im also alone :))

[tranquil obsidian]

I’ve ordered my freebies too, they will be very limited compared to my usual freebie projects but I’ll have some at least. Good news for you @trail turtle @golden minnow

[trail turtle]

Yayyy

[daring coyote]

If you like i also have some freebies~

[trail turtle]

Coolll
I would like to make some but idk what to do

[tranquil obsidian]

I might not go to the venue as early though but I’ll see, what ticket do you have? We can definitely meet up to trade freebies at least

[tranquil obsidian]

You really don’t have to make anything but if you want to, the most common freebies are anything with the members ofc. Such as bracelets with member names/songs, member pc’s or lomo cards, key chains, phone charms etc
My freebie projects is creating my own pc’s so you’ll get pc’s designed & handmade from Malin’s freebie business haha

[trail turtle]

Yes I know but sharing freebies with blink is so cute
Oh okayyy ! I'll see if I have the time to make something

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah, giving away freebies to share the happiness & love is so much fun. I may have thousands of freebies for my SKZ concerts but they’re being divided into 3 concerts, money well spent🤭 it’s so fun to trade with others who have made them too, & ofc just giving away freebies to make others happy is so nice

[trail turtle]

Yess, plus its my first kpop concert so I want to have as much fun as possible
I wanted to go to the skz concert but I didn't have enough money to go to Paris two weekends in a row

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh yeah, I’m staying in Paris for more than a week because of all 3 concerts, so I’ll be there since the 24th

[trail turtle]

I'm going with my best friend who is army (blink too but not at the same level) and we're going to try to get tickets for the BTS concert when they do their tour because for me it's the opposite, I'm blink, army too but not at the same level

We complement each other well lmao

[trail turtle]

Oh okay, It must be expensive, but at least you'll have fun!

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah, it’s not cheap haha, but it’s worth, having the concert summer of my life here

[trail turtle]

Yessss

[golden minnow]

[trail turtle]

I went to a concert last week, it was a French singer, I didn't listen to his music much but I loved it !
It was near my house and it was cheap so I took advantage of it

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh yeah, my concert year started with Ateez on Valentine’s. Then I went to 2 concerts at our amusement park last week & the week before so my concert summer already started too, only 8 days to my first SKZ concert for the summer O_O

[daring coyote]

Seating!

[trail turtle]

OMGGG niceee
I've only been to two concerts this year, one in February and one last week (they were also the first concerts of my life)

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh nice haha, it’s good preparation for Blackpink concert

[gray ember]

Idk if someone alr asked/ mentioned this before but does someone know if there will be a meeting place to handout freebies?

[gray ember]

Omg you're also going to skz, which cities are you going to? I'm also making freebies!

[prime cedar]

OMG I'm also going to SKZ !

[tranquil obsidian]

yes! I'm going to Amsterdam + both Paris days, what about you?

[gray ember]

I'm also going to Amsterdam!! Will you also be at the venue in the afternoon ?

On the grass field next to the arena

[tranquil obsidian]

oh, nice! I can't because I have VIP

[tranquil obsidian]

I haven't seen any info about this specifically but I also don't check the French server that might have info about it, maybe something will be announced closer to the date too

[sonic gull]

Hi, is anyone in H1 at the first concert in Paris on August 2nd?

[chilly fjord]

Hello guys, si there someone in S15 ?

[spice geyser]

S12 here

[chilly fjord]

Oh hi !

[chilly fjord]

Nice to meet you and glad you are in S15 too !

[chrome brook]

D9 here

[chrome brook]

We're across from each other

[vital heron]

Is anyone in pit for day 2?

[snow plume]

Anyone in H2, here? In Paris for Day 1?

[daring coyote]

P21 here for D1!

[limber birch]

P15 for me

[daring coyote]

Your near me

[daring coyote]

Wanna queue together before going inside:)

[limber birch]

I'll be with two friends of mine for the queue, but if they don't mind and you don't mind, with pleasure

[daring coyote]

Im fine with it, you can ask if they also are!

Going alone so would really love to hang out with someone

[shadow wasp]

I'm in P26

[limber birch]

It’s a bad seats ?

[shadow wasp]

not bad but also not good

but I have those Samsung Ultra phones

[limber birch]

omg slayyyy

I am at the far right of P15, I am too afraid of seeing badly, I hesitate to take a zoom lens

[shadow wasp]

Nice, you have a great place, near the stage plus a big screen

a video by @tomox550

looks okayish

[limber birch]

I dont think I Will be in the same place

cuz

im here

[vital heron]

oh im there also

[limber birch]

I'm especially afraid of not seeing the people in front of me

[vital heron]

day1 or day2?

[limber birch]

day 1 ..

[vital heron]

oh i'll be there in day 2

[limber birch]

so cooool

[shadow wasp]

well this video was taken from p32 first few rows
I'm seated in P26 sixth row

[limber birch]

ohhhh okay

[vital heron]

oh i thought u r in pit, didn't see the little mark in p15 my bad

[shadow wasp]

Pit is SO expensive... Like how

[vital heron]

i was saving money from last year

[shadow wasp]

lucky you

[vital heron]

and i was financially challenged for a few months – like, ramen noodles every day level

[shadow wasp]

but what about the other groups, next year they're performing here too

oh, you're pure blink, that's also nice

[vital heron]

i wouldn’t spend this much money on any group that’s not Blackpink

unless it's LE SSERAFIM, maybe

I don’t listen to them as much as BLACKPINK, but I like them too.

[shadow wasp]

but isn't pit first come first serve based?
like I could not...

[vital heron]

I think i was fast enough for it

[trim marsh]

Everyone is starting to wake up here

Less than a month guys

[vital heron]

yeah 😄

[limber birch]

it was my birthday gift lmaoo

[vital heron]

OH WOW

[vital heron]

who gifted? your parents?

[shadow wasp]

does anyone have or go for the new Blackpink lightstick version?
I want to know how it looks like irl

[limber birch]

my ex lmaoo

[vital heron]

Really??!!

[limber birch]

idk if u talk about the vip or the pit ? but for the pit yes

[vital heron]

So why did you break up?

[limber birch]

huh

[shadow wasp]

fr, why did you break up?

[vital heron]

U said your "ex"? It would be really hard for me to break up with someone who got me a gift. I was just wondering

[tranquil obsidian]

I don't think you meant anything bad but just asking something like that can be very personal & not something they have to or want to reply to in a big public server like this one. the question itself is also a bit much, no one knows the story behind that & shouldn't ask about it to begin with + what if they were an asshole but they should stay with them just because they got a birthday gift...? it's best not to ask questions like these or assume things is my point, I assume you meant no offense but just saying~

[vital heron]

Ur right

@limber birch I just want you to know that I really didn’t mean to say anything bad. That was never my intention. I’m sorry if it came across the wrong way.

[limber birch]

I just didn't understand the question because it's not because a guy offers me something that I should stay with him, but I don't think it was necessarily mean, so don't worry

[limber birch]

fr I needed to be alone

[daring coyote]

Just a question but do you know if your friends are okay with it yet?

[magic herald]

Are they selling lightsticks before the concert? And how many hours before?
Also what will be the price?

[waxen ore]

I'm looking for people with gone to the concert (for the queue etccccc) I'm at the cat gold F7 ✨️

[tranquil obsidian]

I wouldn't count on it, they don't always sell lightsticks as tour merch, I would order it online before if you want it

it might also be out of stock on many sites since the tour has begun now, and light sticks in general aren't cheap

[magic herald]

hmm thats sad… idk it kinda takes away the personal value if I didn’t buy it there..
Yk what I mean? 😭

[tranquil obsidian]

I don't see light sticks being sold as tour merch often at all, I think most people do order them online to have them before the concert. there is a kpop shop in Paris but it doesn't seem to have it in stock so that is also the problem when tour begins that they start to sell out online too

[magic herald]

Hmm ok I thought it was normal because all the concerts I was at had lightsticks in the merch shop…

well it was only 3 concerts, I was probably just lucky

[chrome oracle]

Yes they will sell lightsticks! They were around 70€ last time around

It’s how they make money on tour. The lightsticks are around 30€ online but with shipping and taxes it comes to a similar amount

[magic herald]

thats actually fine.. i remember i bought Kiss of Life lightstick for 85€ 🥲

[chrome oracle]

Hope it was cute

[magic herald]

yess

[shadow wasp]

imagine not selling lightsticks on a concert this big

I'll buy my lightstick there

[trail turtle]

I only have the ver 1 of the lightstick I hope its fine because other versions are too expensive for me

@tranquil obsidian I finally booked everything for my weekend in Paris. We got the train tickets a few days ago, and today I reserved an Airbnb that's a 40-minute walk from the stadium. It’s nice and not too expensive! I’m happy everything is working out well. Now that everything is booked, I can’t wait anymore—I’m so excited (I love Jump)

[chrome oracle]

Version 1 is iconic, use it while you can!

[trail turtle]

Oh okayy yes thxxx, I have it for years and never used it yet (its my first blackpink concert)

[daring coyote]

I also got an airbnb!

[trail turtle]

Yay

[daring coyote]

Wait

Im taking a look at the photos again and it has a baththub

[chrome brook]

I would say they are going to sell the lightstick as a merch before the concert because it's a new version, and it litearlly isn't availible anywhere.

Even on weverse.

Also the prices acording to my friend start from like 50-80€ varying between different groups and venues.

[magic herald]

thanks!

[shadow wasp]

Walking in that area for this long doesn't feel secure I believe. But idk

[trail turtle]

Dont worry I'll take a Uber

And I'll be with my parents to the stadium

They will accompany my best friend and me to the concert and come to look for us

[trail turtle]

Sameeee

I don't have a bathtub at home so I'm looking forward to taking advantage of it and having a nice bath

[limber birch]

I haven't asked yet mb

[tranquil obsidian]

oh, that's nice to finally have everything booked! I've had my Paris trip booked since march haha, but with hotels it's cheaper if you book earlier + you also wanna make sure to book when it's available ofc. it's less than a month left!

[trail turtle]

I wish I had booked everything earlier but my best friend's mother wanted to come with us and organize everything herself but in the end we managed to change her mind, My parents are coming because they wanted to spend a weekend in Paris but they're going to leave us alone, they going with us to the stadium and that's it
And we took an Airbnb, 177€ for 4, we each pay our share so it's okay (around €44 per person)

[delicate hull]

Only 25 days left, so more and more random questions come up in my mind.😄
So, to everyone who attended the previous tours or even attended a different groups' concert: I'm wondering if a t-shirt in Large, for example, will be about the same size as when I would buy a shirt from a local store, or would it run smaller, like it is the case in Asia, where a Large-sized shirt would be equal to a medium or even a small-sized one in Europe. I've been to some concerts before but I always arrived too late at the venue to buy some merch without missing the first couple of minutes of the show. So I don't know how the sizing will be. I just don't wanna end up buying a shirt for 50€ or whatever it's going to cost, that wont fit me.

[chrome oracle]

The staff selling the merch might be wearing the merch so you can ask what size they have on and you can hopefully hold the items so compare sizes. The items last tour seemed basically like regular european sizes though.

[delicate hull]

Ah ok, great! Thanks Mia! 🤗

[daring coyote]

Gonna start decorating my lightstick!

[chrome oracle]

Oh what are you planning on doing?

[daring coyote]

Just black and pink rhinestones and maybe a bow👀

[trail turtle]

Can someone help me, I don't know what outfit to wear to the concert. Does anyone have any ideas?

[snow plume]

Well, I'm gonna wear a merch t-shirt with a pink shirt over it, and black jeans 😄

[trail turtle]

Oh okay !

[sleek pawn]

Good luck to wait like hours to get your turn, and more longer wait to get in concert

Seriously idk if I want buy merch… actually I do want it but u know what

Thousand ppl there lol

I would maybe skip merch shop and go concert

Just imagine Hummel going last there but lightstick are sold

[daring coyote]

Im gonna wear a born pink shirt and then a long pink skirt

The front of the skirt is short and the back long🥹

[spice geyser]

Pink satin skirt for me w a black top and some docmartens

[tranquil obsidian]

Merch will be in international sizes most likely & it’s common for merch to also be unisex fit so they’re bigger because of that too

[delicate hull]

Good to know. Thank you! 😊

[spice geyser]

Im dying for those uniform top, hope they have some there

[shadow wasp]

I hope I can pull Jisoo as a Photocard, unless they don't do pcs in France 😵‍💫

[magic herald]

Good luck

any news about a kpop after party? (Nightclub or else)

[limber birch]

nah srry

[naive needle]

Anyone in the P22 block Sunday? :3

[shy skiff]

How early should I be there if I plan on buying a lightstick?

[spice geyser]

Im going for 6PM to buy merch

2hours should be ok

@shy skiff

[shy skiff]

Thank you! Any idea if the lockers are accessible no matter what kind of ticket you have? As a collector I’d wanna store the package of the lightstick because I’m pretty sure I won’t be allowed to go inside the venue with it

[tranquil obsidian]

You can maybe check IG pages of places that use to host those if there are any

[chrome brook]

Do you think that there is going to be an official pop up store with the merch ?

I'm really hoping for it as there are for all of the show dates before Paris.

[limber birch]

there will be a stand for the merch like for all the concert

but a pop up idk

[daring coyote]

Gonna start working on my freebies from tomorrow on!!

[spice geyser]

Sorry I don't know about that

[spice geyser]

What is a freebie?

[tranquil obsidian]

It’s like a gift given away for free by fans to other fans 😊

[spice geyser]

Sounds cool

[tepid trellis]

Hey, does anyone know of an instagram groupchat for people going to paris? 🩷

[daring coyote]

Scared i wont be able to finish 100 freebies :(( kinda busy with work as well

[daring coyote]

I would love to know too!!

[naive needle]

Would like to know too, maybe we can make one 🤷‍♀️

[spice geyser]

Yeah great idea

[gray ember]

Does someone know if there's a big fan group who organises stuff in Paris? I think it's really fun to organise a freebie meeting. A place where we can trade freebies , so its much easier for people to give out freebies since it can be scary to approach people

[gray ember]

Ye , love that idea!

Do we want to make an insta group? Or via whatsapp?

I use those more than discord

[gray ember]

Omg what place did you have in Amsterdam? Did you get a high number for standing?

I screamed so much during the concert 🦅

[naive needle]

WhatsApp may be more convenient for most people?

[gray ember]

Ye I think so too

[naive needle]

And then each member can invite the people they want

@gray ember can I dm you?

[gray ember]

Ye, everyone can use the group link for inviting people

[gray ember]

Yes ofc!

[naive needle]

I hope I can share the link here:
https://chat.whatsapp.com/Eqpr2jRcxOx0K4D3AGkkg7?mode=r_c

[naive needle]

We made one :)

[naive needle]

Done !

[naive needle]

Yup! :3

[daring coyote]

Tysmm!!

[naive needle]

You're welcome! :3

[tranquil obsidian]

There’s the French BP server so not sure if they have organised anything

[tranquil obsidian]

I was in VIP Pit 2, and yeah, they did random numbers so despite manifesting & praying we ended up with 811 T_T a friend behind me who was with 2 others got 600s. Definitely not what I hoped for but you also can’t do anything about it.
Oh no, you’re a screamer haha

[gray ember]

Ah okay

[gray ember]

Ooof :(( hope you had a great time tho!!

I mean screamed but not the whole time tho

[deep berry]

Hello !! est ce qu’il y a des gens qui comptent repartir du concert en covoiturage vers Rouen ?

[tranquil obsidian]

We did, and we did have a good view anyway for where we were & a taller guy we had met outside earlier who had a higher number than us let us stand in front of him too
Did you also have VIP or seat?

[gray ember]

Ohh that's great to hear!

[gray ember]

And I had seats :))

Good view , I was on third floor

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh, it’s good that you think you had a good view even if you were on third floor ;o I usually only get seats on the first floor

[gray ember]

This was my view

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh yeah, that’s indeed pretty good!

[trail turtle]

Finally I bought the lightstick version 2 and I will lend version 1 to my best friend who does not have a lightstick sooooo both will go to the concert

[chrome brook]

Hey guys, I wanted to ask, what are you doing for freebies ?

I have some crochet french macarons and baguettes lying around and I thought about giving them out as freebies.

Do you think it would be a good idea ?

[daring coyote]

Im personally doing bracelets and photocards (even tho they are a bit small)

[trail turtle]

I just made a diy photocard holder to take a pc with me at the concert ❤️

[daring coyote]

I LOVE IT

[trail turtle]

Thxx
I don't have enough material to make freebies (idk if i can make 10) but otherwise I could have made some for the concert and put fanmade photocards inside
But I don't have the time and the material 😭😭

[daring coyote]

Dont worry about it freebies shouldnt be a pressure🥹

[trail turtle]

Yess I know
I really wanted to give some to other blink

[tranquil obsidian]

I’m doing my own photo cards!

[chrome brook]

Wow, I always admire people who do that, because I can't make them look pretty for the sake of my life.

Like I've tried and it definitely isn't for me.

It's good you haven't seen the attempts

[chrome brook]

Do you make them doublesided ?

[tranquil obsidian]

Yes! 😊 so they have a back page designed by me too

[chrome brook]

I would love to see them, they must be absolutely adorable ! 💖

[tranquil obsidian]

I haven't posted my Blackpink freebies online yet, but you can check @ malinbelleart on IG to see my freebies I created for Stray Kids, and my Blackpink freebies will then have a kinda similar Paris back page + with a photo of a member on the front 😊 since I also created so much stock for my SKZ concerts, Blackpink ones are more limited so I chose 1 photo for each member 😊 I should get ready to post them on my IG soon as well~

[trail turtle]

I received my ver 2 lightstick with a pc of Lisa
I'm too happy 🥹

The concert is coming soon, I can't wait

I bought it on Vinted, I was afraid it was a fake but normally I checked everything and it's real!
I wanted Rosé's pc but it sold out too quickly

[lyric jetty]

hey!! is anyone else going to blackpink in france on aug 2 (VIP)?
i’m going solo and would love to hang out or wait in line together before the show 🙂 always better with blink friends 💖🖤

[trail turtle]

Sorryyy
I'm going on the 2nd but not as a VIP

[trim marsh]

Not everyone spent nearly 1k on the tour😭

[shadow wasp]

this price, but no meet and greet

[magic herald]

What do you even get from vip then 😭

[trim marsh]

Thats what im saying

no black, no pink, and no music

it's just a ticket thats overpriced

😭

[tranquil obsidian]

Was there a VIP gift included in VIP or you just get closer to the stage is all?
I’m not sure why their VIP barely included anything honestly or does someone know if this has been the case on previous tours as well? Because you definitely get things included in VIP for other big kpop groups so it’s not the norm either

[tranquil obsidian]

so badge/lanyard, small bag + poncho? it's not guaranteed to be the same for EU either

[tranquil obsidian]

Oh interesting, & how fun that she’s doing something in Paris too that will be available for EU Blinks~
I’m already on my way to the airport to travel to Paris now btw

[sleek pawn]

I’m also curious about merch in Paris and concert, I never been concert at all

I bet waiting merch include concert entrance will be too much longer to wait

[golden minnow]

Safe flight! 💜

[trail turtle]

Yayy gurl
I'm only going to Paris on the 2nd in the morning lmao

[trail turtle]

Idk I also want to buy merch but idk if I'll have the time

[sleek pawn]

Man I’m so scared lol anyone have experienced Taxi at concert ?

🤔

Someone just told me 200€ Uber

[sleek pawn]

If u go morning u have time lol

[trail turtle]

I dont think its that price...
I'll take the Uber too (first time) and when my mother looked at the average prices (on chatgpt so there is a margin of error) It wasn't like that at all

But I think it depends on where you're coming from

[sleek pawn]

Obviously not from France

[trail turtle]

I'm going to Paris in the morning (Because it was cheaper lmao) but my Airbnb doesn't open until 2 p.m. so I'll have my bags with me and we want to drop them off before going to the concert

[sleek pawn]

I’m trying to take G7 Taxi

[trail turtle]

Idk I'm from France but I only went to Paris once 7 years ago and my parents took their car

[sleek pawn]

But afraid if is come much price that I can’t pay

😅

[trail turtle]

I understand

I asked to chatgpt the average price to expect for an Uber from my Airbnb to the Stade de France
And it was written between 15€ (so 30€ round trip) but you have to plan for more in case of high demand and events

I don't know if these are the real prices because I've never taken an Uber soooooo

In any case, I'm going with my best friend and my parents are accompanying us to the Stade de France, so we divide the price by 4 (it doesn't change depending on the number of people)

Are you planning an Airbnb or a hotel in Paris?
If so, ask chatgpt how much it will cost on average from where you will be staying to the Stade de France

But chatgpt can still be wrong

[sleek pawn]

Actually I go alone because nobody come with me

[trail turtle]

(I'm disappointed... I'm an hour and a half walk from Rosé's pop-up store 😭😭)

[sleek pawn]

Gare de Lyon to Stade de France

And switch up

[trail turtle]

So sad..

[sleek pawn]

Yes

Nobody in my Area are interested in blackpink

😭

I travel first time alone also

Never been concert too

So I’m nervous and a bit scared

[trail turtle]

Omggg 😭😭😭
My parents are coming with us because they were afraid we'd go alone. They're spending their weekend in Paris, so they're not staying with us, They will enjoy their side, they will just accompany us to the Stade de France

[sleek pawn]

Your parents are sweet

[trail turtle]

Yess 🥹

[sleek pawn]

My mother wanted too but my dog are sick so can’t

[trail turtle]

It remains chatgpt it could be wrong

[trail turtle]

Oh no 🥺

[sleek pawn]

I hope no rain in concert

[trail turtle]

I hope too

[sleek pawn]

I think Stade de France concert is open?

Like not closed for rain

🤔

But then also rip for all who want use phone lol, they just need only enjoy concert

[trail turtle]

I think it will remain open

[sleek pawn]

I will take G7 not Uber is cost more but I’m sure G7 have also better and faster

🤔

[trail turtle]

Yesss, I want to film a few moments (like 2 or 3 videos max) to keep a memory (and I have a friend who can't go, she wants videos but it will be my best friend who will do it because the quality of my phone is horrible lol)

I've been to two concerts in my life, I've never used my phone, but Blackpink is my biggest dream, sooo 😭😭

[trail turtle]

Oh okay

[sleek pawn]

Blackpink is gonna be my first concert

[trail turtle]

After filming my two or three videos of a few seconds, my phone will stay in my bag. I don't like filming continuously

[trail turtle]

So cool 🥹

[sleek pawn]

Good luck also

😭

[trail turtle]

Yess
It wasn't in France, I think it's easier to get out of the stadium, but we'll all get out at the same time, it'll be hard as well

[gilded swift]

I'd say book uber in advance, I think you can book a scheduled ride. It is more expensive than getting it right now usually (maybe 1.5x or 2x price) but surely it is less expensive than the price when there will be a lot of demand which might make it rise a lot (and mostly make it impossible to get a ride)

[sleek pawn]

U mean schedule before than at right timing?

But thing is we never know when blackpink concert end and take out of concert

[gilded swift]

I can't seem to make it work sadly lol

but yeah that's what I thought

most concerts have the same duration I'd think so you can approximately time it

[sleek pawn]

Maybe before concert is possible but

After concert is bad idea at schedule

[gilded swift]

yeah I can guess so

I'd say it's pretty much a bad idea overall to take a car anyway

both ways

[sleek pawn]

Because expensive?

[gilded swift]

traffic

[sleek pawn]

😂

[gilded swift]

and sure expensive when you consider public transport is next to the stadium

[sleek pawn]

But train is more dangerous pickpocket, criminal and uncomfortable

[gilded swift]

of course

[sleek pawn]

Especially as a woman who go alone

[gilded swift]

you can find some people to go with you

[sleek pawn]

I’m not woman but I go alone

😂

[sleek pawn]

I’m too introvert

[gilded swift]

well we can go together then haha I'm also by myself

and I'll take the metro / rer

[sleek pawn]

U sure at 2?

😂

[gilded swift]

2 or 10 doesn't change much anyway lol

[sleek pawn]

That best way to go

😂

[sleek pawn]

I’m talking 2 August

[gilded swift]

oh yeah

[sleek pawn]

[gilded swift]

what area do you stay in ?

[sleek pawn]

I go at 3

[gilded swift]

ohh alright alright

good luck then

[sleek pawn]

Thanks you too

I have also bday with concert

[gilded swift]

I'll be fine no worries used to paris

[gilded swift]

oh cool

[sleek pawn]

Enjoying bday at concert

[gilded swift]

have fun

[sleek pawn]

I hope no anxious scared and yeah

But right now I don’t feel really good because I don’t know what will happen

😂

[gilded swift]

I'm more anxious for being last row

[sleek pawn]

I think is even normal for first time travel alone and concert

[gilded swift]

yeah definitely

[tranquil obsidian]

Thank you! I literally just landed in Paris

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah but you know I’m going to Stray Kids concerts this weekend & then staying until Blackpink haha

[trail turtle]

Yesss enjoy

[golden minnow]

Enjoy your time there

I’m flying on the 1st

[trim marsh]

Im going on the 2nd

got a train at 9 and I arrive at 13

[tight rapids]

I saw that they opened sale for "reduced view" tickets around 80 Euro each. Anyone made experience buying these in this stadium?

[trail turtle]

I have a train at 6am

[lyric jetty]

I just dont wanna go alone and want to meet blinks?? I never told u to get one th

[trim marsh]

Well I mean-
most of us will already be somewhere around the venue before the concert so

u won't be alone-

also there is a whatsapp group with some people on it, I forgot what the link is
its somewhere

[lyric jetty]

I will if I dont know any of those people

[trim marsh]

if u are interested in that

[lyric jetty]

thats was why I was trying to see if anyone wanted to meet up there

[trim marsh]

[trim marsh]

[lyric jetty]

[lyric jetty]

[trim marsh]

Ok good

Most of us there is on 2nd

[trim marsh]

np

[lyric jetty]

[cosmic hazel]

Does anyone know if they will check the names on the tickets? Like with ID or something?

[shy skiff]

Seeing some chances of rain in the forecast for next week’s concerts...
Will the stadium be fully covered in case it does rain?

[tranquil obsidian]

Not sure but you should bring your ID with you

[magic herald]

i wouldnt worry about that now... yesterday it said it will be 30 Cel on saturday

now it says like 15

it will change for sure

[shy skiff]

Yes but the chance is still there...
Anyone who’s had the experience of it raining during a concert at this stadium before?

[chrome oracle]

Buy a raincoat before the concert

Just in case 🙂

[tight rapids]

For normal tickets they dont check, for VIP yes.

[limber birch]

In the pit no

otherwise yes

[tranquil obsidian]

~

[feral ridge]

Hiii again! I'm here just to ask if your search was successful?

[visual sierra]

Hello! I suppose that the merch shop take credit card ? I'm so scared to not get my deadline tour t shirt

[trail turtle]

I think they take the credit card yes
Why wouldn't they take it? I don't want to take cash with me

I know that the Rosé pop-up store only takes the card, but I have no idea about the merch

[tranquil obsidian]

Yeah, I think cards are way more commonly used than cash, or they might even only accept cards

[visual sierra]

Thank you for the answers

[delicate hull]

I just looked at the list of allowed items on the Stade de France website and it left me a little confused. Do you guys think they let me in with a very small crossbody pouch like the one on the picture, since it's not transparent? I don't wanna risk arriving at the stadium and then need to head all the way back to my hotel to leave my bag there.

[chrome oracle]

As I understand a small bag is permitted

Is yours under the size of the description?

And you can even bring a sandwich lol

[delicate hull]

It definitely is. It would only fit a phone, a small wallet, power bank and not much more, so it's very small.

Yea, I guess I head into the grocery store buy some stuff and make my own sandwich in my hotel room then. Hahaha 🤣

[chrome oracle]

Grab a fruit as well

Individual grape

[delicate hull]

Or an Avocado 😏

[sleek pawn]

Does this work fine

?

Because I need a lot stuff to bring it

I’m wondering if this are bigger than A4

[chrome brook]

It is bigger than A4 so you could have some trouble bringing it in

Do you think that a bag that isn't transparent but is under the A4 format limit would be okay ?

I don't have time to buy any other bag

[vital heron]

Guys i just broke my arm one week before concert

Lol

[chrome brook]

Here's the bag against the A4 pice of paper

[chrome brook]

It would be an unforgetable memory if you could get Blackpink to write on it.

[vital heron]

I will be in pit

[chrome brook]

But honestly it's such a shame if it bothers you during the concert

[chrome brook]

Then your chance for it happening aren't so low

At least maybe your gonna get noticed beacuse of your arm

[vital heron]

I will try to be on side-barrier

[chrome oracle]

This is fine

Are there pics of the French merch yet?

[golden minnow]

Does anyone know when Rose's popup store opens? I'm flying there on the 1st so scared I'll miss it

[trim marsh]

26 to 4th

[golden minnow]

Ty :3

[chrome brook]

Also, i think it opens at 10am - 4pm

[golden minnow]

https://tenor.com/view/iu-palette-new-jeans-show-korean-gif-14940296868285686916

Got it

[trim marsh]

11AM to 9PM

@golden minnow

[golden minnow]

Thanks! 💜

[vital heron]

Guys is there any problem to enter the stadium with my arm plaster

[last flare]

People here are looking for tickets for the August 2 concert?

[chrome brook]

No, there shouldn't be any

[rare basalt]

WTS 4x VIP Soundcheck Tickets for BLACKPINK at Citi Field , Flushing, NY (July 26/27)! 😢 Can’t attend anymore. Transfer via Ticketmaster. DM me ASAP! 🎫 #BLACKPINK #BLACKPINK_WORLDTOUR #BLACKPINK_WORLDTOUR2025.

[vital forum]

soundcheck?

[tranquil obsidian]

The day before the SKZ concert they posted a story only including the first part with transparent bags, without even including the other part about bags. They must have gotten lots of upset messages including mine because why stress us out the day before with wrong info.
I don’t know why they don’t include both bag rules in one to not make it confusing. But, you can bring a transparent bag matching that measurement OR any bag under A4 size.
For SKZ first day I brought my mini Fjällräven backpack for reference, no problem & I even got in with my water bottle without them taking the cap

[delicate hull]

Oh god, they play with our mental health for sure. That is exactly what confused me, why do they have two separate rules for basically the same thing. Anyway, thats great news. So I can save my money for other things when I bring my own water bottle instead of buying one for 10€ at the stadium.

Thank you for sharing how things were going at the SKZ Concert, hope you had an amazing time at their concert.

Nice, one thing less I have to be stressed about ... If only I never had read a post on reddit a couple hours ago who claimed that he got a mail from ticketmaster stating that the PDF-Files are not the final entry ticket. Additionaly he read on their website that he receives the ticket a couple of days before the concert and that he needs to download the stadedefrance app to receive/use those tickets. I really think he/she got some things confused since I have not heard anything about this or that the pdf tickets are not final. But if he is actually right... what the hell is this Ticketmaster France? 🤣. Why..., why did I read this post...😭

[tranquil obsidian]

I did bring an extra cap for my bottle because you’re only supposed to be allowed a bottle without a cap so not sure if my security girl just didn’t see it or she saw it was a new bottle so she let it go through. So I might have just been lucky. You’re allowed a bottle without a cap is the rule though.

Whatever ticket you have bought or whatever tickets the concert use, whether it’s phone tickets only or pdf files or physical tickets, you do usually always get sent your ticket right away after buying it & it’s already visible in your account. So that’s something to keep in mind. I have my ticket in my email too from when I bought it.
The only thing is that France has multiple ticketing sites including Stade de France too, so he might have bought his ticket differently & ofc if he didn’t buy it through Ticketmaster FR then he won’t find it there. No idea why he would post this confusing post with misinfo though. But you really need to know how things work or check things up yourself sometimes to confirm whether it’s true or not.

[delicate hull]

You're right. And while I was reading this post I already thought 99% this can't be true, but still there is this 1% of uncertainty. He could be right if the tickets were QR-Codes that only get activated days before or even on the concert day. But that's not the case here. To reassure myself I've sent ticketmaster a message through their contact form.

[tranquil obsidian]

If you already have your ticket in pdf in your email, you’re good because that’s what I have too ☺️

[spice geyser]

Anyone interested?

[naive needle]

Anyone has planned a crowd display with smartphone app ?

[trim marsh]

I have it in my email, phone and drive

Beat me to it

[tranquil obsidian]

You’re obviously very prepared haha, I also already have it in my phone. I’m literally at Stade de France now haha

[trim marsh]

You are????

Yoooo we got insiders for infos!!!

[tranquil obsidian]

Fanbases would be the ones planning it in that case but doubt they’re doing anything

[tranquil obsidian]

2nd SKZ concert

[trim marsh]

By any chanceee are you in the WhatsApp group for the tour

[trim marsh]

2nd???

[tranquil obsidian]

I know Stade de France by now being here 2 nights

[tranquil obsidian]

Why go for one when they’re playing two

[trim marsh]

True true

[tranquil obsidian]

Nope, should I be

[trim marsh]

Up to you

We got some stuff planned there

Even through most of us goes on the 2nd

I didnt create it btw, someone else did

But we got quite the people already

[tranquil obsidian]

Like what? Unless it’s important info I already know about some BP café event etc happening but I’m not sure if I’m interested in other things

[trim marsh]

@naive needle it's your group not mine
You do the talking

[tranquil obsidian]

Some stuff planned like meetup or what...? I have a very busy Paris life here haha

[trim marsh]

Meetup?
Yeah there is one on the 2nd

We agreed on 3pm if I'm not wrong

And a necessary cat picture

[tranquil obsidian]

Just tell me what you have planned since you’re saying you have some stuff planned. Though if it’s meetup I’m likely not going

Cats always necessary, I have seen Paris cats, very important info

[trim marsh]

True

[trim marsh]

What i saw at least mostly is just talking about a after party thing, the meet up thing and how confusing the venues rules are

And yes
That's a lot of things in the same sentence

[spice geyser]

Yall received your ticket from ticketmaster?

[trim marsh]

Ummm
I got my ticket the day I bought it

In my email

And on my account

[spice geyser]

From ticketmaster?

[trim marsh]

[vital heron]

Oh i see

[naive needle]

Alright thank you :3

[naive needle]

Hahaha up to anyone to join 😂 yep we'll meet around 3pm the 2nd

[finite glade]

I have one ticket for the 2 august cat 1 E5 for 150 or 140 (187€ base) please I can't go I don't know what to do with the place anymore, I don't want to lose the money I put into it, I'm a student, I regret it so much

[magic herald]

do u have it in ticketmaster app?

[trim marsh]

I don't have the ticketmaster app

I just downloaded the ticket off the email I got sent when I bought it

In anyway it should be somewhere in your account

[chrome oracle]

You can’t have the ticketmaster france app if you’re not living in France

They should really not geolock the ticketmaster apps, would be way easier

[magic herald]

well i have it in my mail anyway.. but i was wondering if i can get it in the app

[magic herald]

oh ok

[trim marsh]

I dont think you can
I tried myself but I couldn't find a way to get it there

[magic herald]

yeah
