Buying tickets is almost never a stress-free task – awaiting final numbers from your gig-group, pestering hang-ons for that ticket fee transfer and minutes spent in the mysterious online “Green Room” can all be particularly anxiety-inducing.

Last week, one of modern rock’s most revered acts, Arctic Monkeys announced a massive Australian tour. Playing a slew of arena shows across the country in celebration of their most recent album – the sultry, experimental Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, it’s set to be one of the year’s most hyped tours.

Scoring yourself at one of these shows is a must for rock fans – Arctic Monkeys shows are a guaranteed sell out pretty much everywhere they go, however, we’ve got a little tip that’ll see you secure your spot to the huge tour.
