Co-op Live: Co-op Member pre-sale explained as Paul McCartney Manchester tickets go on sale
Take That, Liam Gallagher, The Killers and other major acts had already been announced for Manchester's newest arena this year. Paul McCartney will be joining them
Co-op Live is fully up and running and a whole host of big names have either played or will take to the stage soon. The list of acts announced to play is growing almost every week, and with each announcement comes all important ticket sales days.
One of the biggest to be named in recent days is Paul McCartney. The Liverpool singer and musician who was a Beatles star is coming to Co-op Live on December 14 and 15.
Many bands and venues provide access to pre-sale tickets through the purchasing of merchandise. Buying shirts or pre-ordering an album is a method some use to get fans to register for presale windows.
At Co-op Live, it works a bit different to this and the arena uses the Co-op membership as a way of giving fans presale access. Knowing how to get signed up and ready ahead of the all important date and time is key to reducing the chances of you being left disappointed.
There are six steps provided by Co-op which outline how you can get ready for pre-sale tickets. These are listed below but before you get started you will need to make sure you have a Ticketmaster account and be a Co-op Member- this costs £1 and can be done through the Co-op website.
Pre-sale tickets for Sir Paul McCartney go on sale through Co-op Live at 10am on June 19. General sale then commences at 10am on June 21 for his first Manchester show in 13 years.
