Promoter Everything is New expect tickets for the Arena Meo ending up quickly. On the first day of sales the queue had dozens of people
On the morning that tickets for the concert of Adele went on sale dozens of people waiting in line at the Fnac Colombo. The British singer will act in Lisbon on 21 and 22 May in Meo Arena and expectations for the concert are high because it is the first time the artist operates in Portugal.
Andreia Marcelino, 25, We came to buy the ticket this morning because he believes that they will “quickly deplete” and wanted to “seize as quickly as possible.” You want five tickets and some “are to offer as a Christmas gift.”
“I believe it will be good. It has a spectacular voice,” continues Andreia.
Oscar Fernandes criticizes the delay of the singer to come to the country: “I do not know because it did not come sooner, given the success of the last album it did in Portugal.” Guarantees, however, that it will always be welcome.
The third and final album Adele, 25 , went on sale in late November and is a success enorne . 3 sold thousand and 200 copies in its first week in Portugal, in physical and digital format, and 6000 after Black Friday, according to Blitz music magazine.
At 10 am on Friday, the queue to buy the ticket at Fnac Colombo, in Lisbon, had several meters and people kept coming. Some, the working closer to that shopping center, had enjoyed a short break at work to purchase tickets, but were surprised by the amount of people that was there.
For many, these tickets are a gift from Christmas and, to avoid confusion, the Fnac mandated that each person could only buy four tickets. While some choose the places to see the author of Hello , one of the successes of the year. Others wait patiently.
José Carlos Silva will give the tickets to his wife as a gift. “She really likes of Adele,” said the man 55 years. It came early to secure a place “but apparently will not be easy,” he said, looking at the people in the queue kept growing. “The show is very competitive.”

Who tried to buy the ticket online was also forced to wait. By the end of Friday afternoon, the ticketline, one of the pages where you can purchase tickets, showed the message “the event that you are accessing has a high demand. Please wait.” According to Rita Barradas, head of Everything is New, the production company that brings Adele to Portugal, were “thousands of people to access shopping sites at once” and the pages were overcrowded.
By the number of people to resort to sales points for tickets, Rita Barradas believes that “the shows will sell out quickly.” “It will be an extraordinary concert,” continues the representative, “Adele is the artist of the century. XXI, no doubt.”
Tickets are “an expensive bit for the price we see in Portugal” says Gilberto gourd, “but they are worth.” Oscar Fernandes disagrees. “I think the tickets are not overly expensive,” said the young man, “costs a little more to bring an international artist and the size of Adele, and why even think are quite affordable.” Tickets cost between 45 and 85 euros.
