(UPDATE 9/21/15) It’s been a long road. but the North American leg of the Sonic Highways World Tour is coming near an end. Only 11 shows remain for the remainder of the tour, but while dates are now limited, it doesn’t mean they will be in any less demand. On the secondary market, Foo Fighters tickets have an average price of $135.21.
Two of the biggest remaining shows will take place at the start of week when the band plays back-to-back nights at The Forum in Los Angeles. However, the price points for the show are not as high as some others, though that is mostly due to how soon the shows are, rather than a lack of demand. The band will play their first of two shows on Monday night with an average price of $109.19, and a get-in price of $36. Tuesday night both the average and get-in will rise, as the average will be $123.11 and the cheapest ticket is $51.
