Unbelievable that in 2020 "Queen" is filling the O2 10 times. Who would've imagined that in 2003 when people were buying tickets to the 46664 concert which was supposed to take place in Spain but got cancelled etc.

It remains to be seen whether these additional 5 shows will be totally "filled".
Absolute joke
Two venues in the UK, they just so happen to be the biggest arenas
Fuck them, I’ll certainly not be going unless they decide to play to the fans that can’t afford hundreds of pounds on travel, hotels etc, as well the extortionate amount they’re charging for tickets. I could pay for a week away for the family for what it would cost for one night
Does the stage not fit into the other UK arenas? I mean, that stage is huuuge. I know, they already had problems to fit that last tour‘s stage into a couple of the arenas. Still, it’s a shame, that they don’t play at least a couple of gigs in the North of the UK.

It could be worse...if you're a Madonna fan and want to attend one of her 15 nights at the London Palladium, you're looking at a MINIMUM starting price of £430 a ticket (and that''s for a show likely at least half mimed, with more dancers than musicians on stage).
@cmcdrums
I actually went to see Madonna at Earl’s Court years ago, I was living in Nottingham at the time so only a couple of hours away...
Was an enjoyable show, majority of it mimed, but a decent turn
they are dumping Lambert and PR is returning? 10 nights at 02 is stupid they could have done 2 nights at Wembley stadium in August. Def Leppard, The Darkness and The Struts supporting, that show I would go to see but not with Lambert on vocals.

The stage production is video based in conjunction with quite subtle lighting moods during a lot of the show. Playing outdoors in the UK in June would mean playing in daylight, hence the o2.
It also means people will be closer to the stage, have better sound and not be threatened with unpredictable weather.
So why are 10 nights at the o2 stupid and 2 at Wembley Stadium ok.

@scottmax: I agree with you its a complete rip off and it is not Queen in any shape or form now.
No Freddie Mercury and no John Deacon and they have the nerve to charge ridiculous ticket prices.

Much like the fee you paid for your most recent Brain Transplant/Exchange Operation. I hear that the recipient of your brain - a turkey, has demanded his own brain be returned.
