Following her successful Renaissance tour, demand for Cowboy Carter tickets has already overwhelmed Ticketmaster's systems, with fans reporting extended wait times and technical difficulties. While Ticketmaster denies any system crashes, they recommend using a single browser tab, clearing cookies, and avoiding VPNs when purchasing tickets.

Security experts warn about potential ticket scams, particularly on social media platforms. Tony Neate, CEO of Get Safe Online, emphasizes the importance of purchasing through official channels with consumer protections in place.

A major concern is "speculative listing," where unofficial sellers advertise tickets they don't yet possess. Ticketmaster warns this practice is illegal in many states and urges fans to purchase only from official sources during designated sale periods.

Important Sale Dates:

• UK BeyHive Presale: Available now through tomorrow, 11 AM local time
• US Citi Presale and Verizon Up Presale: February 12, 12 PM - February 13, 11 AM local time
• Mastercard Presale (UK & France): February 12, 12 PM - February 13, 11 AM local time
• Artist Presale: February 13 until 10 PM local time
• General Public Sale: February 14, 12 PM local time

For all sales, "local time" refers to the venue's time zone. Fans are strongly advised to use only official ticketing platforms and avoid third-party resellers to ensure ticket authenticity and avoid potential scams.
