Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Visit online discount retailers to search for tickets. CheapTickets.com, StubHub.com and TicketLiquidator.com are all popular online concert ticket sellers. TicketZoom.com specializes in last minute tickets, which they offer at a cheaper rate to avoid losses on tickets that didn't sell earlier.

  2. Step 2

    Buy from a seller who doesn't add extra fees to your transactions. It defeats the purpose of buying a discounted ticket if you pay more in fees and other costs. CheapPremiumTickets.com offers free shipping and waives service charges for tickets they sell.

  3. Step 3

    Compare prices. Prices of concert tickets can vary from website to website, so it's important to compare several sources to find the best deal.

  4. Step 4

    Sign up for email alerts. Online ticket sellers often send ticket deals and coupons to their customers. Some sellers also notify customers of reduced price tickets closer to the concert date if the concert hasn't sold out.

  5. Step 5

    Choose to have your tickets held for pick-up at will call. Will call is usually a cheaper option than receiving them through mail, unless the seller offers free shipping.
