I have 3 Adele concert tickets for Saturday March 25th and in my rush to get tickets (any tickets) I didn’t realise it is the same day as a family wedding that I have already RSVP’d to go to 

I am absolutely guttered as I really want to go to both….. I am wondering if anyone has tickets for the Thursday concert that they would like to swap for my Saturday tickets. I paid $299 for each ticket. They are on the field very close to the stage. I am happy to talk to anyone and see if we can work something out if the prices differ.......

I have tried several social media sites but had no response so far. I am desperate!!! Lol If I can’t swap I will miss the wedding as I HAVE to go to Adele!!!

Kind Regards
