Royal Albert Hall General Sale Tickets

I was an hour early to the general sale (9AM UK time). It said i sit and will be given a queue spot. When the tickets came online an hour later I got a 4500 ish position in the queue with an estimated wait of over an hour... If u have gotten the tickets what position were you and were the tickets going out real fast? Was I just unlucky with the queue position or is the demand really that big?

UPDATE (Mar. 7th 10:51 UK TIME): JUST GOT IN AND GOT TICKETS FOR THE LAST DAY (SUNDAY).

Got the 2nd Tier Seating (Its above the expensive boxes but below the rausing circle). Its not what I wanted (wanted Stall seating since they are lower to the ground and closer to the dohyo). Stall seating got sold out in front of my nose. I clicked on it and said no longer availible.

Ticket: 207.27 GBP

Fees: 22.73 GBP

I payed extra 14.51 GBP for booking protection so i can refund it if im unable to go.

Total 244.51 GBP

Sad I didnt get Stall seats i really wanted, and payed the same amount I was going to pay for those seats for objectivly much worse seats but I hope that the tsuriyane (the floating suspended roof) and big ass screens dont fly in front of my face and Im actually able to see the rikishi live. But at least I got something to do in October!

See you all there on SUNDAY! Im going alone if anyone wants to hang out Im down for that as well!

Good luck everyone else with the tickets!

THERE ARE STILL NORMALY (presale non inflated) PRICED TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE TIME OF WRITING!
