2024 is a fab year for big gigs in Cardiff. Huge music acts are coming to perform in the Welsh capital, including Pink, Taylor Swift and Billy Joel.
While tickets for these gigs flew off the shelves there is still a chance to bag yourself a way in, even if you think the shows are sold out. Many of the impressive gigs are offering re-sale tickets, so you don't have to miss out. Here is how and where you can buy resale tickets for some of the biggest concerts coming to Cardiff in 2024.
It is recommended that fans buy resale tickets, where needed, at official ticket partners, Ticketmaster or AXS. However, resale sites like Viagogo also have availability for these Cardiff gig. They are not an official resale partner, but, at the time of Taylor Swift's gig ticket release, a spokesperson did say this about their site: "Viagogo is a regulated marketplace where fans have the freedom to buy and sell tickets to their favourite live events, safely and securely, backed by a guarantee. Sellers on our marketplace may list tickets at high values when demand is high, but prices can change and tend to reduce over time."

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band
American rock star Bruce Springsteen is heading to Cardiff in 2024. He will perform at the Principality Stadium on Sunday, May 5.
There are tickets available on Ticketmaster starting at £74.60, they are restricted view, but, as our reviewer tested out these seats for Harry Styles last year, it might be worth a punt if you really want to experience The Boss live in concert. There are also a number of resale tickets left for Springsteen for standing and seats with a better view, also on Ticketmaster.
There are no tickets available on AXS. Tickets start on Viagogo for £113.
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is bringing her world-famous Eras Tour to Cardiff on Tuesday, June 18, where she will perform at the Principality Stadium. Getting hold of Eras Tour tickets has been tough for Swifties.
They sell out almost as soon as they're released, however, you can keep an eye on Ticketmaster and AXS for official tickets, as fans who can't attend may resell theirs. It is likely that any resale tickets will get snapped up very quickly.
Alternatively, consider resale ticket websites. Viagogo and VividSeats are selling Taylor Swift Eras Tour tickets. These sites allow you to browse at your own pace, as tickets put up for sale by fans stay available until they're bought.
At the time of writing the cheapest ticket on Viagogo is £375 and the cheapest on VividSeats is £475. A spokesperson from Viagogo spoke to Express.co.uk about people's worries over using resale tickets. They said: "The European leg of Taylor Swift's Eras tour has been long anticipated. We've not seen anything like this since The Beatles and with tickets having only just gone on sale, demand is at its peak right now."
"Viagogo is a regulated marketplace where fans have the freedom to buy and sell tickets to their favourite live events, safely and securely, backed by a guarantee. Sellers on our marketplace may list tickets at high values when demand is high, but prices can change and tend to reduce over time.
"We recommend Swifties wait for demand to settle and check regularly for a listing that meets their budget. Tickets for Taylor Swift's UK dates have already sold for as low as 172 GBP on our platform. Also, tickets listed at eye-catchingly high levels rarely, if ever, sell."
AXS also made a statement: "The only way to obtain a valid ticket for Taylor Swift's shows is via the approved ticket agents. In the UK, the approved ticket agents are: Ticketmaster, AXS, or directly through the venue's website. In Ireland, the approved ticket agent is Ticketmaster. Any tickets found to be purchased via re-sale on the non-official secondary market will not be valid for entry into the concerts and will be cancelled in accordance with the terms and conditions of sale."
"Through official resale facilities, ticket resale prices are capped to help combat the inflation of ticket prices and put a stop to ticket touting. For more information on official resale facilities, fans should visit the website of their approved ticket agent," they added.
