Ticketmaster reports today they are not selling any more single day tickets to Coachella… at least for now.
The promoters are currently counting how many tickets have sold to see if they can release any more single day tickets, said Vidal, a sales supervisor for Ticketmaster in Los Angeles. For security reasons, he said he cannot provide his last name.
Vidal said that once promoters have counted the tickets, they could release the single day tickets as soon as tomorrow.
There are still quite a few tickets available for the event so chances are good the single day tickets will be available again, he said.
He said with large events such as Coachella or Hannah Montana, promoters often scale back on the number of tickets sold, or hold off on tickets sold, until they know how many are left.

Word of mouth has caused a rising popularity in Coachella.. Regardless of a lack of a good headliner line up this year, single-days are already sold out.. Three days will be sold out within a month I predict..
Although this board seems to hate Jack Johnson and thinks he ruined this year (I agree that Jack Johnson should not even be NEAR the lineup, but still am going). The undercard is still great, and no one can get past that. The people who can understand that Jack Johnson doesn’t affect Coachella at all and that if the lineup remained the same except without him would be awesome are real coachella fans.. Honestly you all know if JJ wasn’t on the lineup all you bitches would still come.. Fuck all you bitches who can’t stop BITCHING!!

Fortunately, every month there are a lot of events where one can enjoy his time and entertain his self. For example, there are great events that worth attendance like Coachella which provides different kinds of entertainment. And really this festival is ultimately attended. But every time in such hot events the problem of tickets is disturbing. Lately, I discovered an interesting website where to compare ticket prices for free and I find that it’s a great idea because this way I can find the cheapest offer.
