Harry Styles fans are not quite feeling the love of his newly announced Together, Together tour.
The British superstar recently made his return to the music scene after a four-year hiatus with the release of “Aperature,” the lead single from his upcoming album Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.
The former One Direction band member and Harry’s House singer has cemented himself back at the forefront of pop culture with social media posts, a Grammy presenter slot and a 2026 tour spanning 50 shows this summer.
He’s set to play a whopping 30 shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden — his only U.S. appearance — as well as 10 nights at Wembley in London. It’ll be Styles’ first time playing live to audiences since his Love on Tour run came to a close in 2023, having grossed over $600 million.
But when the ticket presales went live on Ticketmaster this week for shows in New York, London and Amsterdam, fans were quick to voice their anger at the cost of tickets. As hundreds of thousands waited in the digital queue, some took to social media to threaten boycotting Styles’ tour altogether, while others accused the singer of being “disgusting” and “greedy” at a time when the cost of living is so high.
Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that Styles is only playing one venue in the U.S. and two in Europe, forcing fans to pay for travel and accommodation on top of their tickets. Furor over the situation was such that the conversation was soon a trending topic on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday. Some even thought Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher was throwing in his two cents when he tweeted “HOW MUCH” after the presales opened.
Prices in the U.K. started at 44.10 pounds ($60.80) to an eye-watering 466.24 pounds ($642.76) for seated tickets at Wembley, with standing prices ranging from 144.65 pounds ($199.45) to 279.45 pounds ($385.34) apiece. VIP packages range from 468.85 pounds ($646.50) to 725.45 pounds ($1,000). And in New York, the most expensive VIP package is currently priced at $1,667.
“Calling a tour ‘Together, Together’ when it’s unaffordable for 99 percent of people is crazy work,” said one fan on Threads. Another wrote: “I fear there must be some miscommunication here. $1,000 per ticket? Taking a breath costs $20 in the economy. Are you and I holding hands the entirety of the show? Because what do you mean?”
An X user said: “The optimism and joy of a Harry Styles comeback just to be slapped in the face with insane tour ticket prices is genuinely a bit of a shock to the system, not to be dramatic.”
Buyers were told in the queue for MSG tickets: “Tickets for this event have been priced in advance by the tour from $50 – $1,182.40, including service fees. Ticket prices will not change during the presale or onsale. Price ranges do not apply to VIP packages. Tickets are subject to availability.” Ticketmaster has previously maintained it does not determine pricing or use dynamic pricing — where prices are hiked based on demand.
But fans were swiftly confused when prices climbed as seats began to sell. On Tuesday, The Hollywood Reporter could see tickets available on the third-to-last row at Wembley — what we’d call “nosebleed” seats — set at 92 pounds each ($126.86).
The general sale for the Together, Together tour kicks off Wednesday.
Styles isn’t the only musician to face backlash over skyrocketing concert costs. Morgan Wallen, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter have all been brought into the same discourse over the rising inaccessibility of live music.
THR has reached out to Styles’ reps and Ticketmaster for comment.
