So, here we are again — Drake drops his first UK tour in six years, and fans are scratching their heads faster than Mercury in retrograde. Only five dates, and the ticket prices? Let’s just say they’ve got more drama than a Leo at a solar eclipse. Some folks are downright refusing to cough up £200-plus for a single ticket and are instead eyeing the Wireless Festival, where Drizzy’s headlining for not one, not two, but three whole days. I mean, is it just me, or does this feel like a classic case of pricing that’s completely out of touch — like a Capricorn trying to do TikTok?

If you’re wondering where the astrological stars align on this, let’s just say the universe might be nudging us to rethink our spending habits this summer. Keen to find out how to nab those Wireless tickets or get the lowdown on the tour dates before prices skyrocket even more? Dive in below. LEARN MORE
Drake fans are turning to a lesser-known UK gig after the rapper’s UK tour prices were labelled ‘out of touch’.
Drizzy announced his first UK tour in six years on Tuesday (June 3), with just five show dates up for grabs.
Presale for the UK tour opened yesterday (June 4), but some fans were so shocked by prices, they’ve decided instead to purchase Wireless Festival 2025 tickets instead, where the singer will headline for three days in a row (July 11 to 13).
On social media platform X, one fan wrote, “£200 for a single Drake ticket!? In this economy… Hella out of touch.”
Another agreed, as they said: “£500 a piece for helicopter view tickets for Drake presale in Manchester. £280 to stand when tickets are advertised at £64. Absolute robbery.”
LADbible has contacted Ticketmaster for a comment.
