Stormzy blasts resale sites after touts more than double ticket prices for his tour

No holding back.

Stormzy has hit out secondary ticketing websites after tickets to his upcoming gigs went on sale for vastly inflated prices. Earlier this week, Stormzy announced details of a series of gigs between March and May this year and tickets were flying when they went on sale on Thursday morning. As has been the case with a number of high-profile acts of late, tickets were available on secondary sites such as Seatwave within minutes. Tickets for his Brixton Academy gig, for example, are available for between £59.00 and £70.00, despite originally going on sale for £22.55. To say Stormzy was unimpressed with developments would be an understatement. He took to Twitter to urge fans not to buy tickets for more than face value, with a special message for those responsible for jacking up the prices. https://twitter.com/Stormzy1/status/829628384732909568 Tell us what you really think, Stormzy. He has since teamed up with Twickets to offer fans a chance to resell tickets at face value.
