Arcade Fire coming to Calgary

Posted by Trevor Scott Howell in Come See, Come Saw

Arcade Fire, arguably, one of Canada's greatest musical exports is coming to Calgary next month. The band, promoting its latest album The Suburbs, will take the stage September 26 at the Stampede Corral with opening act Calexico (a band entirely worth seeing on its own). Tickets, selling between $30.50 and $46, go on sale Friday, August 20 (that's this Friday people) at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster, livenation.com or calling 403-777-0000.

Seems the show is at the Saddledome now. You can book floor tickets already at the band's site.

@sockeye: Good to know. As of 10:30 this morning, Ticketmaster still had the show slated to take place at the Corral. Wouldn't be surprised to see it moved to the Saddledome though.

$46.00!! I guess this is how they recoup expenses from "fans" illegally downloading their albums.

You can't buy them from the band's site anymore... it re-directs you to TicketMaster. Any one have a Livenation presale password, it starts tomorrow! I'm dying for floor seats!!!

Was anybody else not able to get floor seats for this on the presale? I bought tickets but Floor was not an option and I am worried that if they go on sale friday I will not be able to buy with that card and address

I got floor tickets back on the 17th through crowdsurge, which was linked to on the band's website.

For some reason that day both the band's site and the crowdsurge site listed the venue as the Saddledome, but that has since been changed back.

Right now ticketmaster isn't showing any tickets available.
