Ticketmaster halts the online onsale for Céline Dion’s comeback shows after flagging “suspicious activity,” according to multiple reports. Fans attempting to buy tickets report spending hours in online queues before being unable to complete purchases, with some describing being removed or unable to access the sale. The Independent and Rolling Stone both say the pause occurs during the public ticketing attempt, prompting frustration among customers who queued while the sale was interrupted.
The issue is characterized as a disruption to the ticket purchasing process rather than a change to the concerts themselves. Ticketmaster is described as shutting off the onsale in response to activity it identifies as suspicious, and the pause leaves fans seeking clarification about when sales will resume and whether access will be restored. Reported reactions focus on the length of the wait before the interruption and the lack of immediate resolution for buyers. Overall, the accounts agree that the onsale is stopped temporarily due to Ticketmaster’s “suspicious activity” systems and that fans experience prolonged queuing followed by loss of access to the sale.
