Many thanked the Sidemen for the warning while questioning when the tickets would be delivered.

"appreciate the warning lads! secondary question though, do you know when tickets are actually given? bought from ticketmaster months ago but it still says 'they havent been released yet'" wrote @doctordoxy.

As per the Ticketing information available on Ticketmaster, the tickets for the event will be sent to the buyers' registered email addresses "no later than 48 hours prior to the event." Fans who have bought the tickets can expect to get them sometime next week.
