More Than One Million Fans Apply For LED ZEPPELIN Tickets

September 20, 2007

BBC News reports that more than one million fans have applied for tickets to see LED ZEPPELIN reunite on stage for the first time since 1988.

Just 20,000 tickets are available for November's show at London's O2 arena, which is being held as a tribute to Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun.

Tickets are being issued by ballot for the show, which also features Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman and Paolo Nutini.

Promoter Harvey Goldsmith said he was "overwhelmed" by the demand. Fans who have tickets will be told by October 1.

Entries to the ballot have now closed. Winners will have to pay £125, plus booking fees, per ticket.

Goldsmith added: "This response is amazing. We would like to thank all the fans for their support and we hope that all those fortunate to be successful will keep the tickets out of the hands of touts."
