WHY IS FALL OUT BOY USING TICKETMASTER VERIFIED FAN®?

Fall Out Boy is coming home for one very special show at House of Blues Chicago to celebrate the release of their album, M A N I A! The band cares about their fans and they know there are going to be more fans who want to see them for this one night only special show than there will be tickets available. So they are collaborating with Ticketmaster to exclusively sell tickets through the #VerifiedFan platform – a unique fan-first technology that levels the playing field so fans have the opportunity to unlock access to tickets.

Please note: Registering does NOT guarantee you will be verified, receive a code or have the ability to purchase tickets.

I got a confirmation email, what does that mean?

Receiving a confirmation email only means your registration has been submitted. It does not mean you will receive an #VerifiedFan Onsale access code. If verified and randomly selected, codes will be distributed the morning of Tuesday, June 27 prior to the start of the Onsale at 10AM CT. Receiving a code does not guarantee you will be able to purchase tickets.

Does registering mean I get a code?

No, successfully registering does not guarantee you will be verified or receive a code.

If you receive a code it will only unlock the ability to access tickets. Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis and are not guaranteed.

No. The tickets will be in the Ticketmaster account holder’s account. (Remember, receiving a code does not guarantee tickets.)

You said you got rid of scalpers, but I already see ticket for sale and the Onsale hasn’t started.

Many unofficial sellers will list tickets even before they go on sale. This practice is called speculative listing and fans should not trust resellers claiming to have tickets. Those speculative listings are not real tickets in hand. Beware of these sellers.
