Definitely keep checking the website. Someone linked the purchase tickets page earlier, that's the one likely to come back as failed payments occur.

One level higher up it still says "SOON ON SALE"...

That made me laugh!

[redishere 697]

Tried multiple times to buy tickets for me and my wife, had no luck whatsoever.
When I saw tickets weren't available online anymore, I ran to the closest shop and they told me it was labeled as "availability: 0".

Still going to refresh the website every ten minutes:

Where do you think it will be possible to buy resells? Not that I think there will be

I was lucky enough to get an entire trilogy: tractors, traffic lights and boats.

[Chewy 2,376]

And I'll be seeing John Williams in two months ! SUPER EXCITED!

[GlastoEls 556]

The only thing standing between an army of JWFan nerds and the front row - chimneys, tractors, traffic lights and boats!  

[Biodome 714]

The good thing about the tickets is that they seem to be personalized, so, fortunately, we didn't have to compete against Viagogo or Stubhub bots. There is also an option to sell your tickets on Vivaticket, which means that those who need tickets, can check the concert page regularly, and, if they are lucky, buy them at face value during the coming months.

[BB-8 3,461]

Is this going to be recorded? Any intel?

[Steve 589]

Couldn't get a ticket 😥 If someone has a ticket left please pm me. 

[ConorPower 148]

Any spare tickets? Please let me know!

[Nagnes 6]

I had a great ticket, but the payment failed. Impossible to get the window to enter the credit card number... 😭

[Steve 589]

Covid will make many tickets available in early december I guess.

Silly question. Got a ticket (just did the Find Best ones… was pure luck as the chances were slim to 0).  However, not exactly sure where the seat is (should be balcony):

 

Palchi I-II

It was possible. That's how I got my seats. It was very stressful, because at first I got an error when somebody took my selection before I could get to the payment screen.

 

You got lucky is happened only once to you. It's happened to me almost ten times...

It's going to be a loge on the first (lowest) level. They are numerated, so you should have some additional numbers to identify the exact loge and seat.

[Damien F 1,742]

I couldn't get a ticket but I'm not too disappointed. I've already seen him in Berlin and Vienna earlier this year. Vienna was my 8th time seeing him in concert overall. Hopefully someone who has never seen JW in concert managed to get a ticket that I would have bought instead.

[BB-8 3,461]

Any dress code?

 

The Milanese parquet is indeed a little intimidating for us northern Europeans.

I was googling around, and it looks like it's going to be a mixture of formal and semi-formal in the floor seat section and loges, with semi-casual in the galleries. As long as you don't come in casual or sports wear, you should be fine.

The La Scala website specifies a dress code as well:

Yeah, I assume so.

I want to wish anyone attending a wonderful concert and experience. The fact that John Williams will be, after Vienna and Berlin, conducting his music in Milan at the age of 90 years old, is almost surreal and truly extraordinary. I'm very excited for you all.

In Vienna I saw people just wearing jeans and t shirt as well lol

Unfortunately I missed the ticket buying process. Guys what do you think, later will be availalbe again tickets? 

At Belrin Concert in September there was opened tickets after then the website said "Sold Out".

 

What do you think?

 

Thanks a lot!

[PaulWalker 3]

Hi...the concert was soldout i think in less 10 min...

Luckly i was able to buy one ticket. Will be my first time at a J. W. concert and first time at La Scala.

Very exited!

[Atlantis 0]

New here, I had tickets for the concert in London but the Master could not come.

 

I hope I can finally see him this time.

 

A little disappointed not to have vip packs for this occasion

I selected my desired seats then I proceeded to the next page which gave me an error. Got back sent in the queue.

 

Anyways, hoping the concert will take place as expected, and we wont get a repeat of London 😫🫣

Booked myself a cancellable hotel...in case of a 2018 déjà-vu.

[TownerFan 4,983]

When I saw that the sale was being handled through that ticketing website (Vivaticket.it), I feared the outcome could be very negative for a lot of people, no matter how early you got there. Today I had the confirmation that this platform has one of the worst queueing system around (it seems to privilege people who buy seats through the "Find Best" option rather than picking them manually). Anyway, I tried and wasn't successful. My wife was on another computer at work and it was the same for her. The system kept booting us out before checking out after we picked our seats. I have many friends who weren't successful either, so we're in a big good company to share woes. An Italian saying goes, "Shared pain, half the joy".

 

I feel sorry especially for the people who were already arranging traveling plans because of this concert. For once in my life, it was the mountain coming to Muhammad, so I didn't have to deal with booking flights and hotels.

 

But it feels more than awkward to have John playing in my hometown and be left out of the theater. Life has a lot of sense of irony, doesn't it?

[crumbs 14,300]

Don't give up hope @TownerFan! Still plenty of time for people to cancel tickets and seats to become available again (especially with covid running amok).
