RESALE tickets for Gary Barlow’s show at The Brindley are priced at up to 10 times the original face value that they sold for.

Gary heads to Runcorn between February 10 – 15 for ‘A Different Stage’ – a one-man stage show which narrates the journey of his life alongside music.

The project was created by Tim Firth, Gary’s long-time friend and collaborator.

For each of the evening shows, stall seats, balcony seats and box seats were priced at £38.50 on Gigs and Tours.

They sold out in a matter of minutes and resale tickets have since been listed on Viagogo.

At the time of writing, on the opening night of the show, there is one ticket available for £338.

On Saturday, February 12, tickets have been listed up ranging from £155 - £388.

Two days later on Monday, February 14, there is a ticket listed for £236.

And on the final night, Tuesday, February 15, a ticket can be bought for £155.

A Viagogo spokesperson said: “Gary Barlow has tweeted this is the 'first lot' of tickets  – suggesting there will be more dates announced. Prices fluctuate depending on availability and demand. That is the nature of dynamic pricing on regulated resale marketplaces, like Viagogo, where prices are set by the seller.

“In our experience any unreasonably priced listings gain a lot of media attention, but will rarely ever sell at those amounts. And, as always, we strongly encourage buyers to research ticket availability and costs before making a purchase.

“Also, holding back tour announcements and ticket allocations is a popular tool used by promoters to create this type of ticketing frenzy. We believe that consumers are owed more transparency when it comes to the total amount of shows and tickets available to the general public, so they can make more informed decisions when purchasing.”
