Could More Dates Be Added?
Additional dates on major tours are more common than you might think, particularly when demand is high. Announcements can drop with very little notice, sometimes just days or even hours before tickets go live. Following Mariah Carey on Evnt Central means you'll get an instant notification the moment any new date is confirmed, putting you at the front of the queue before most fans even know it's happened. It's one of the simplest things you can do to stay ahead. Download the Evnt Central app at evntcentral.com/app for push notifications, presale guides, and countdowns.
How to Maximise Your Chances of Getting Tickets
1. Use the earliest presale you qualify for The O2 Priority and Co-op presales both open Wednesday morning. If you qualify for either, that's a full two days before the general sale. Don't wait.
2. Set a free presale reminder on Evnt Central Follow each event on Evnt Central and you'll get a reminder before each sale opens. No risk of missing the window because life got in the way.
3. Have your payment details ready before the queue opens Log in to your ticketing account, confirm your payment method is up to date, and have your address saved. Every second counts once you're in a queue.
4. Be flexible on your date if you can With three UK dates on offer, fans who can travel have a real advantage. Birmingham opens the run on a Friday, which could be easier to get to for some.
5. Follow the artist page for any last-minute updates Sale times can occasionally shift. Following Mariah Carey on Evnt Central keeps you up to date without having to constantly check back manually.
