Both my wife and I are Zhou Shen’s fans. We have been following him since 2019, just when we first started to follow Chinese media content. This is the same time when the Covid-19 pandemic hit. We watched a variety show called Our Song (我们的歌), and he was one of the many talented young singers.
Ever since I have been following his shows as well as listening to his songs. In December 2024 when he concluded his national tour in China, he announced that he would extend his tour to other countries. We were pretty excited but held our excitement in check because Toronto may not be one of the cities.
As it turned out, he will hold an event here in Toronto on March 14, 2025 (𝛑 day) at the Coca-Cola Coliseum!
Today is the actual date when tickets went on sale. Carol found the promotional code ZS929TO so that we can be eligible for presales at 1:00pm EST.
Many days before today I made sure my TicketMaster account was in order with all of my payment information all up to date. Twenty minutes before 1:00pm, I was signed on to the site and ready to order. I don’t know if it is luck or it was standard procedure, but 10 minutes before 1:00pm I decided to refresh the page. After the refresh, I was in the official queue!
We started out in the mid-5000’s and the above screenshot showed that it came down pretty fast, still we were pretty pessimistic about our chances. It took about 15 minutes for us to finally enter ticket sales and seat selections.
The seat selection process was also pretty difficult because every time we chose the seats, they were already taken. I finally just asked the system to give me the most expensive seats and was lucky enough to find two.
And… We Got Them! They were not cheap, but glad that we secured two tickets.
I double-checked that the tickets were recognized on the TicketMaster app on my iPhone, and added the tickets to my Apple Wallet. Can’t wait!
Wow. It would be amazing!
