In the case of the Miami shows, accounts that were given access to additional drops before night one were also given access to drops in nights two and three, meaning these users could have had access to as many as 12 tickets over the three nights (if purchasing the four-ticket maximum)
, if they jumped in the queue early enough. Other
shows in summer 2023 saw releases happen about 26 hours before the first night of the show, and again the day of the show. The earliest ticket drop for those shows was the Detroit show at 5:07 p.m. the Thursday before Night 1. On the day of night one, ticket drops happened as early as 1:49 p.m. in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and as late as 6:12 p.m. in Minneapolis. The midweek ticket drops often occur during stage set-up, when the venue and tour have a clearer idea of how the space is going to be used and if any seats can be added.
