Ticketek Reckon Harry Styles’ December Tour Is Still Going Ahead Somehow

Ticketek are copping a roasting online after telling Harry Styles fans that the singer’s Australian tour – scheduled to kick off this November – is “proceeding as planned” amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Over the weekend, the ticket company’s official Twitter account responded to a tweet regarding why it was taking so long for the tour to be rescheduled.

PB = PB || {};
PB.gptStandAlone = PB.gptStandAlone || {};
PB.gptAutoRefresh = PB.gptAutoRefresh || {‘gptAds’:[], ‘gptStandAlone’:[]};
admiralCookie = readAdmiralCookie();

googletag.cmd.push(function() {
var standAloneSizeMapping = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([0, 0], [[300, 250]]).addSize([750, 0], []).addSize([980, 0], []).build(); PB.gptStandAlone[‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1600041990’] = googletag.defineSlot(‘/4403/ev/musicfeeds_intl/ros’, [[300, 250]], ‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1600041990’)
.defineSizeMapping(standAloneSizeMapping) .addService(googletag.pubads())
.setTargeting(‘pos’, ‘A’).setTargeting(‘content_detail’, ‘0’).setTargeting(‘kw’, ‘in-article-mobile’).setTargeting(‘coppa’, ‘0’).setTargeting(‘site’, ‘musicfeeds_intl’);
googletag.enableServices();
googletag.display(‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1600041990’);

if (admiralCookie === null || admiralCookie[‘val’] === ‘false’) {
googletag.pubads().refresh([PB.gptStandAlone[‘pb_prebidjs_300x250_a_1600041990’]]);
}

});

“The Harry Styles Australia & New Zealand tour is proceeding as planned and we are excited to welcome everyone to the events in November and December,” wrote the account.
“In the event of a cancellation, exchanges and refunds will be processed according to AU/NZ consumer law.”
As you might imagine, that response has been met with a level of incredulity, given that we’re currently experiencing a global pandemic. International borders are largely closed, full-capacity arena concerts are extremely not permitted, and you can barely set foot out your front door in Victoria more than an hour a day.

The fact that we’ve all accepted Harry’s Australian/NZ tour isn’t happening this year before the ticketing company has? Bold. https://t.co/cmpoNeSPfu

Styles is yet to comment himself on the Australian tour, but he has postponed dates in both America and Europe until 2021.
“The well-being of my crew, and all the fans around the world will always hold top priority. I can’t wait to see you all out on the road, as soon as it’s safe to do so,” the singer wrote when announcing rescheduled US dates back in March.
