    Make the Ticket icon on the menu activate the ticket. If one is unaware to check their email to activate, it’s easy to THIS (attached) is the ticket; it’s not. Then I got to the venue. Doesn’t recognize because there’s no bar code to scan. Better yet, avoid the whole “activation” process and load the ticket with QR within the Ticket icon upon purchase. Also, enable posting ticket in Wallet like other services.

    Hey Robin, we know you would enjoy the convenience of being able to access your electronic transfer tickets in our mobile app. Since we operate a marketplace and don't have any affiliation with this venue, we don't have the ability to generate tickets on their behalf. Your tickets were instead delivered via electronic transfer over the Pacific Northwest Ballet account manager. You would need to use their account manager to access your tickets, and once you do they may allow the option to add your tickets to a digital wallet if that's something they have the technology to scan for entry. In some specific cases we are able to link directly to tickets or provide you with QR codes in our mobile app, but in many instances tickets have to be delivered through the venue's official ticket distributor or account manager site or app instead. If you prefer to access your tickets in the Vivid Seats app, look for Mobile E-Ticket delivery types when browsing for seats!

    Will never be purchasing tickets from this company again. Never got a email of my tickets, I called three times and was told I’d receive my tickets on time and I didn't. It took me getting on the phone for the fourth time five minutes before my event to finally get someone to help get my tickets to me.

    Hi Taylor,

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand how disappointing it can be when plans don’t unfold as expected, especially for an event you were excited about. We noticed that during your initial contact, you indicated that you could see the tickets, and by your final call right before the event, you were able to access the barcodes, which are typically released closer to the event date as a security measure to prevent ticket duplication. We appreciate your patience during this process, and we're here to help if you have any additional questions or concerns. Your feedback is important to us, and we will continue to refine our communication to improve our service for all fans moving forward.

    I appreciated the ease of purchasing and the reminder about the event since I ordered tickets a little over a year prior to the event. The frustrating part came at the venue when waiting in line to get in, we found we had to go into another line purely for those who purchased through Vivid. It took an hour for them to Transfer the tickets to what the venue would accept (SeatGeek) That's something that should have been advertised or clearly stated at the time of purchase since the Delta Center is a huge venue and not new to hosting large-scale events.

    Hi Jennifer, thank you for your honest feedback about what happened at Delta Center the other week, and for taking a few minutes to talk to us over the phone so we could gather some more information about your experience. To clarify, we are not affiliated with Delta Center in any capacity and we do not generate tickets on their behalf, nor are we affiliated with Ticketmaster or SeatGeek. The venue switched their digital ticket partner from Ticketmaster to SeatGeek, and reissued all the tickets for this concert through SeatGeek. While the seller who provided you the original tickets did transfer your tickets through SeatGeek the morning of the concert, it sounds like there may have been some technical issues with SeatGeek that day which required the venue to manually confirm each transfer for anyone who bought tickets through a marketplace like ours to ensure that you had no issues getting to your seats. We're glad to hear that they were able to get this sorted out for you and that you didn't end up missing the headliner!

    The seats themselves are really cool. Good view of the field. Happy with that. Good access to concessions and bathroom. The problem with these seats relate to seats 1-24 which can only access bathrooms and concessions through one side (by passing these seats). Imagine standing up and sitting back down 40-50 times in a single football game. It’s just distracting and inconvenient. I would NEVER recommend these seats to anyone, especially at $270 for a pair!!!

The worst is that you may not get your tickets until 2 hours before the day of the show. They are a marketplace and not an ideal seller to purchase tickets from.

    Original Review: Dec. 6, 2024

    Did not get tickets to concert tonight Dec 6 2024. Purchased tickets Sept 2024. Was on the phone all day and was promised email delivery for 6 different times during the day. It is now 3 hours before concert and no tickets. Customer support says tickets should arrive 1 hour before concert. I live 3 hours drive from the venue. Do not use this site. Customer support is from Philippines and are useless.

    I purchased tickets for the Hometown Holiday concert in Kent WA, but was no longer able to go because of work. When I tried to sell the tickets, Vivid Seats did not have an option to sell digital tickets, which almost all tickets are digital now. Instead, I went to social media to try to sell the tickets and email them, but I wasn’t able to sell them. Because Vivid Seats does not allow selling of the most common type of ticket, I am just out over $200. I won’t be using VividSeats again.

To ensure a safe and seamless experience for both sellers and buyers, we have certain requirements in place for individual ticket sellers.

    Vivid Seats failed to disclose a 40% service fee. I went through multiple pages selecting seats, adding contact info and adding payment info, all without the fee being shown. After all information had been input, the fee was added off to the side on the "complete order" page. No information about the existence or nature of the fee had been disclosed before this page. I believe this is a deceptive and predatory practice and in violation of the state law where I live. The fee was not even disclosed on my receipt (I was just charged 40% more than expected). I immediately asked Vivid Seats for a refund upon being charged much more than I expected but was refused. In fact, they tried to get more business out of me by having me sell the tickets I no longer wanted on their site (for who knows what fees)!

    Hi Alexander, it sounds like you've had a frustrating time trying to discuss your order total and the price breakdown since you did not spot this information during the checkout process. We display the fees prior to purchase as part of the full price breakdown which details the quantity of your tickets and the listed price (which is set by and paid to the seller), the service fee (broken down per ticket), and any applicable sale tax or delivery fees depending on the location of the venue and the delivery method of your tickets. All of this information is available to review before you submit and finalize your order by clicking the Place Order button at the bottom of the page.

    While it is true that we offer fans the opportunity to resell their tickets on our platform, only certain formats of tickets are currently accepted for listing by fan sellers (folks like yourself who are maybe not as experienced with reselling tickets). Since these tickets are not being issued in a format that we permit you to resell with us, you would have to list them elsewhere or arrange a sale independently via social media. We suggest this course of action for various reasons where you may no longer want your tickets and those reasons don't fall within the scope of our Buyer Guarantee or Terms of Sale, because we want you to know that you have that option.

    Despite any frustration you may still be feeling about not spotting the fees before you submitted your order, we'd like to emphasize that you've secured tickets for the game, and you're bound to have a fantastic time watching some Spring Training sessions if you choose to use your tickets. If you decide you no longer want to keep these tickets, reselling is a fantastic option for you to recoup some or all of your order total at your discretion. We hope you have a better idea of where to find all of your order information before you place an order in the future, and that you'll be able to find a resolution from the available options we've described that works best for you.

    Denver Nuggets game 12/03/2024: This experience began when I made a purchasing error and purchased one seat instead of two. I immediately phone customer service and was told there was no problem. The customer service agent purchased two additional tickets together in the same section although a different row. No problem. He then said he would switch me over to his colleague who would take care of eliminating the one-seat purchase. I was switched to a different agent who said something to the effect, as a reseller, Vivid Seats could not be responsible for customer errors. Therefore, “you” must take the one seat that you purchased and place it on StubHub for sale. It would be have been very easy on my initial call for the agent to simply purchase an additional seat in the same row if a refund or correction of the error could not be made.

    I ended up with three seats instead of two, and did put the one seat on StubHub for sale. I totally admit it was my initial error of completing the transaction for one seat instead of the two that I really wanted. However, because of the way it was handled when I call customer service it ended up costing me about $400, that could have easily been avoided if the customer service agent had responded in a different and more efficient manner. As a result of this experience, I will not use the services of your company ever again. As I said, this was initiated by my error, but customer services approach to solving the issue cost me $400 of unnecessary expense if the situation had been handled in a much easier and much more efficient and appropriate manner.

    Once app was download & complete it was a bit confusing regarding purchasing food & beverage items. There was a hold up at the entrance of the store. My seats were AMAZING. I'm glad I chose that section. Can't stand people getting up every 5-10min. Everything would of been PERFECT during the performance if they would of turn the monitors ON. Also in my area you couldn't hardly hear what they were saying. That was a BIG TURN DOWN. Last part was the exit that was crazy because in case of an emergency that ain't going to work.

    I called the morning of the show because I still had not received my tickets. The first time I called, the agent told me that the seller would send them in 5-10 mins. I then waited another hour. I called again and another agent told me she would investigate my case. I was then put on hold for 30 mins on and off, during which she kept saying she was investigating. Then there was less than an hour left before my show, and I finally received my tickets after speaking to another agent. Ultimately, I received my tickets 10 mins before the start of the show.

    When buying parking from Vivid and you use the direction button it was the wrong parking lot and no one knew where said parking lot was located.

Once we found said parking lot there was no one to scan ticket so we had our fingers crossed that our car wasn't towed. Tickets for game were easy.

    Terrible experience! We arrived at the concert and they placed us in chairs that had our number and letter written on them. But after an hour of the concert they moved us to another place because they had made a mistake when sticking the numbers on the chairs. I couldn't see the concert and I missed the songs because I moved. Horrible! It was a surprise for my boyfriend but we didn't enjoy it at all because of the poor organization of the concert.

    Hi Diana, that sounds like a disappointing experience for sure, and especially not one you would want for a surprise gift for someone you care about. We're not affiliated with the venue in any capacity, so we can't account for any errors they may make with the seating arrangement, but it sounds like your view may have had an undisclosed obstruction as a result of the movement to a different location. We want to connect with you to get some more information about what seats you were provided via electronic transfer, and what exactly happened when they moved you to a new location. Please follow up with us here via private message, or send us a direct message over our official Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter (X) accounts so we can discuss this further. We're here to help!

    I just made the mistake of buying a parking pass for a USC Football game tonight from Vivid seats for the 11-30-24 game. They were unable to get the pass transferred to me how they promised through TicketMaster, then after a difficult time getting a hold of one of their service agents, they made me download and sign up for another App to try and get me the ticket through Parkwhiz. After being intentionally being left on hold for over an hour when I complained about their service and then a two hour wait trying to get assistance through their chat I was finally able to get the parking pass I paid for. Stay away from this predatory company that takes your money and doesn't care about making sure you get your tickets. They obviously do not monitor their calls or care about service.

    I normally use Stub Hub. I tried Vivid Seats once. Never again. I had 2 tickets to the Lions game. $1700.00. The seller transferred the tickets to someone, not me. The phone number they had was not mine. My number is correct on my account. I was on the phone for 1 hour and 32 minutes trying to resolve the issue. The person helping me was useless. At 6 minutes before the start of the game he finally said, "There is nothing we can do for you" and hung up on me. When I contacted them for a refund they basically said too bad.

I called Vivid Seats and explained that I found better tickets for a much lower cost. The representative told me it happens and there’s nothing they can do. Even after I explained the concert is not for another 8 months and we don’t even have the tickets yet and we just ordered them a few weeks ago, they refused to do anything.

    I bought tickets for the Notre Dame vs Army game at Yankee Stadium on November 23rd. I missed half the game waiting on line to gain entry to the Stadium due to insufficient security processing. Many thousands of others faced the same issue. Further, it was a dangerous situation for all as the crowd pressed together in frustration. In short, the paid for services were not rendered. I want a full refund.

    I got my tickets a few days before the event and the seats were great and the family had a great time. I will definitely use Vivid Seats again and would recommend them to everyone else. Thanks for everything. The seat I ordered compared to the seats I got was different and the seats I got were better as I had Row 30 and got Row 4 but if this had been the opposite way I might not have been so happy. Worked out great though with even better seats. One other issue would have been someone that couldn’t do stairs not getting Row 30 and now having a better seat but more stairs could have been an issue but wasn’t for us.

    I recently made my second purchase through Vivid Seats (first was a P!nk concert, second was the Eras Tour). I had no problems with the Pink tickets, quick delivery and they worked perfectly fine! With the Eras Tour tickets they were 2 days late, but when I contacted Vivid Seats they were very helpful, explained the situation occurring with my tickets, and assured me they would be delivered two days later (it was an issue with the seller and not them) and I did receive them two days later. They were very helpful and eased my concerns quickly. I would definitely purchase tickets from here again.

    Parking attendants were not familiar with handicapped parking areas or how to get there was set in numerous parking lots to have an attendant send us to another. I was dropped off out front and my son then parked in our paid lot H Gold. Tried to get assistance at gate but was told by another couple they have been there 45 minutes waiting. Finally walked to seat after taking numerous breaks because of disability reaching set exhausted. This was a BUCKET LIST check-off. It was supposed to be a great experience that will have a bad memory.

    My tickets were fraudulently transferred to someone after I received them. While I understand that "you did your job" by getting the tickets to me originally, there was zero assistance given once I brought the fraud to your attention. New tickets were never issued, no refund given, event was missed and I am out $651.68. The representative "Gwen **" was zero help. She would not let me speak to a superior. She would not help me in any way and kept repeating, "We did our job and you accepted the tickets." I will tell everyone I know to NEVER buy tickets through you.

    Never use the ticket 332 row 10 Seat 15. I try to reach out to you several months to tell you I did not need it and no one responded even up to the day before the football game. I reached out, no one responded. I was hoping to get refund for the ticket seeing that I never scanned it at the gate, never used it and kept asking months in advance tonight.

    Kellie, thank you for your feedback and review. We work closely with many top-tier vendors and ticket partners in the entertainment industry to ensure you have access to a wide selection of events and tickets.

    The Sales Terms and Conditions, which are reviewed and agreed upon before purchase, specify that all sales are final. Our vendors and partners put in a lot of effort to secure tickets, and unfortunately, we are unable to offer cancellations as an option. However, if you choose not to keep the tickets, you do have the opportunity to recoup some of the cost through independent resale. We see that the tickets were delivered several days before the event, providing ample time for resale if needed.

    We appreciate your understanding and are always here to assist with any further questions.

    Parking garage was not where I was directed by your app. We asked several people where the parking garage we were supposed to be in was. No one had heard of it. Had to pay double for parking at the venue. The venue was amazing and worth the trip. But it was almost ruined by us having no idea how to get to our garage. Some people won't have the extra $60 to double pay for parking.

    The I had gotten were not the real tickets, when first buying them there was No notes that said it was not an entry ticket. That information didn't show up until after I purchased the tickets. Then even the day of the event the tickets were not delivered, wasn't until I called about that issued, and I've never in the whole time I've used VividSeats have I ever had an issue. So my thought will be not to buy college tickets again. And I'm out $120 never to be returned. This situation was just horrible.

    It's as important to us as it is to you that it's clear what a seller is offering for sale. That's why we require sellers to be explicit about the nature of the ticket. In this case, the seller wrote, "Not an event ticket/does not allow entry into the game/must have a game ticket to enter" in the listing notes. This disclaimer was visible in the "ticket notes" portion of the map screen and at checkout. We sincerely regret the frustration you felt at not seeing this, though.

Contacted Vivid three times by phone and they were always pleasant and acknowledged the mistake/scam/fraud and each time said it was referred to a higher department and to monitor my email. Never received anything, race day came and went and we missed the whole race because of Vivid's inaction. No communication of any kind to this day...

    Ordered tickets through the vivid seats app for a concert in Tacoma Washington. Tickets were incorrectly displayed as front row, when I brought this to the attention of Vivid's customer service team I was told I was wrong and AA was in fact the front row. Upon further review and numerous calls I finally found a rep to admit that the app was incorrectly sorting rows with double letters (AA, BB, CC) in front of the single letter rows. So row AA was actually behind Z. At that point I was thinking they would own up to the error on the app and help me purchase different tickets as this is clearly a mistake on their end. Instead, they told me I should have confirmed the seating chart by referencing a different section… which makes no sense as all sections aren’t set up the same.

    I spent over 2 hours total on the phone with them to tell me they couldn’t escalate and they recommended I sell or give them to a friend or family. Instead, I ordered tickets from StubHub, which were accurately depicted in the filters and went to the show with my wife. I will never use vivid seats again and caution anyone thinking of using them. I’m attaching screen shots still showing the error with the filter first to last showing single letter rows behind the double.

    I have a lower experience because there was a disorganization on seats and the bag/purse claim of it was “too” big but other people with bigger bags got in. Y’all are hustlers, I’ll give you that. There should be a bag policy on the tickets or order. Also there should be better access to the tickets instead of logging into Ticketmaster.

    It's unfortunate that you were inconvenienced at the venue, Mara. As a ticket marketplace, though, we don't set the bag policy, nor are we able to compile the policies for the thousands of venues we sell for. The venue also sets the platform that the tickets use, so if they decide on Ticketmaster, we aren't able to change that.
