Do you know how much the VIP ticket packages cost and do you think she will be adding dates???!!! I need Charlotte, NC dates or SC Dates. 3 hour drive is not close enough. I hate to buy tickets for a drive like that and then she add dates closer you know what I mean and also do we know a set list yet. I am hoping for all new Now songs plus a couple from UP would love to see her perform I'm Jealous live just once. I guess she decided not to do pictures with the fans this time I don't see that as an option for VIP this time. Maybe she will show up at the pre concert party.
I've seen people posting they paid $600 for VIP front row.

I'm a huge Shania fan and consider myself a diehard. But these tickets are up the roof, and all the economic seats are sold out at Barclay NY. Looks like I'm going to have to wait if she tours in NJ.
yikes, just took a gander at tickets. I paid I think $250 for RTC and was on the floor right by the stage. All the similar seats this tour are closer to $450-600. Maybe if I get an aisle seat I can high five her when she comes around the audience in the Any Man of Mine buggy

It looks like Shania is planning an European leg for "NOW" tour...
AEG Attempted To Force Block Booking on U2
By Dave Brooks | Amplify | August 23, 2017
As the venue wars between AEG and Azoff Music Group were heating up, AEG attempted to pressure superstar band U2 into signing a letter saying it would play the Staples Center in Los Angeles in order to secure a date at the O2 Arena in London for a yet-to-be-announced tour, Amplify has learned.
It’s unclear if U2, which is managed by Live Nation-owned Maverick, signed the letter, but many viewed the attempt as an overreach, adding momentum to an initiative by Live Nation’s UK Chairman Denis Desmond to file a complaint with England’s Competition and Markets Authority over the pairing of the O2 and Staples Center, which AEG acknowledged in a July 3 letter.
Now AEG finds itself in a tough position — continue a policy that has been successful in getting a few extra shows to play Staples Center, but has been roundly criticized by artists, managers and promoters as being heavy-handed; or end the policy amid pressure from regulators and abandon a strategy that had helped the company steer several A-list acts toward Staples Center.
Besides U2, AEG successfully pushed Shania Twain to play Staples Center in exchange for a concert at the 02. When the band 30 Seconds to Mars was routing their tour, AEG backed off the tying agreement between O2 and Staples Center — the band is managed by Azoff and it’s believed AEG wasn’t spoiling for that fight.
In total, AEG is believed to have convinced four or five bands to sign the tying agreement. Unlike AEG, which solidified its policy in writing, Azoff MSG Entertainment said it never had an official block booking agreement between the MSG and The Forum. In a letter to Billboard, Azoff said it took a nuanced approached to booking and said it had no official block-booking policy.
When Katy Perry’s Witness Tour was being routed, the Garden booked two dates for her in early October despite her decision to play three nights at the Staples Center in November. Sources say the move was an attempt to show AEG that Azoff MSG Entertainment wasn’t enforcing block booking, but by now, AEG’s block booking policy for the O2 and Staples Center were so successful the company didn’t want to let it go.
Yesterday, both sides seemed to reach a truce in the four-month-old fight, issuing lengthy statements for a Billboard story. AEG said it would drop its tying arrangement between Staples Center and the O2 if the Forum would end its tying arrangement with Madison Square Garden.
“AEG will consider reverting to its previous long-standing position that its buildings are open to all artists. The only thing that would make us happier than if Mr. Azoff officially declared that MSG will no longer prevent artists from choosing Staples Center would be if they then actually follow through with it,” a statement from AEG read.
That prompted Azoff to declare an end to the rivalry, telling Billboard “(we) are thrilled that AEG has listened to the artists and is going to adopt the same booking policy as MSG. For the record, and at the risk of being redundant: MSG and The Forum are open buildings. We said it and we mean it. Just ask the artists like Katy Perry who played MSG and Staples. So, that settles the matter: AEG and MSG have open buildings.”
I bougt the t shirt offer, got the pre sale code and could NOT get decent tickets. My friend and I sat at 2 computers in 2 different parts of Toronto to buy for the general sale at 10am. Because of an error on the TICKETMASTER crap site, I could not buy ANY tickets.
very unhappy.

So you didn't get tickets during the pre-sale because you thought you'd be able to get better seats today?

I just got an e-mail to redeem my physical copies of Now because I bought tickets online. Anybody know if it is the Deluxe or Standard Edition? I already pre-ordered physical Deluxe from Amazon, the digital deluxe from iTunes and I'm pretty sure with the now tour t-shirt for ticket pre-sale, that comes with the digital standard... If it comes with the deluxe, I may cancel my Amazon pre-order.
Any news yet on what version of the album we're getting with the purchase of tickets Courtney?
They answered my email today wanting to clarify whether I was wondering if it is an uncensored album we receive. I clarified my question so I am hoping to have an answer tomorrow!

I don't think they read their e-mails good. I know it's not the same company, but I had sent an e-mail to the Shania Store asking about the t-shirt pre-sale that I had purchased and they couldn't answer that right. I replies back explaining my question and I got back the same response. Was not helpful at all. I had purchase the pre-sale t-shirt for Quebec and I wasn't sure if I'd get the go ahead for that date through work (work in a school) so I wanted to know if I could purchase tickets through the pre-sale for another venue (Boston). I ended up getting tickets for Quebec and I got approved by work!

I just went to the contact us option on ticketmaster. There is a selection of topics of what your question is about (I'm assuming to filter to different departments) and then wrote my question
I just received my email to redeem the album. The retail value of 3 CDs is $36.00 (see attachment). That's $12.00 each. So it must be the standard 12-track CD. Deluxe CDs usually cost $14-$16.

That's kinda what I assume also, during one of the steps the redeem the album, if I remember correctly, it seems like it was the standard edition but it never really said so.
I'm seeing Shania for the first time next weekend in London and I'm touring Canada next July so managed to bag myself a front row VIP ticket to Barclay Centre, New York!!!!! Eeek!
I know she's not the same as she was 15 years ago, but I'll see what I think in a weeks time and consider if it's worth the NY. Should be able to sell it. Just don't know if she'll ever be back in UK. I'm more a fan of The Woman In Me, Come On Over and Up..!!

I saw her during her Rock This Country Tour in Montreal and she was good, I can't see there would be a huge change in two years and also I didn't really hear anything negative when she preformed at Stagecoach this pass spring! Good luck with everything!
I can't believe no-one interviewing asked if there would be a European leg of the tour. On the last tour which was meant to be Shania's last they said she may have extended to the UK for a few dates but now another USA/Canada tour.
I AM SO EXCITED AHHHHHHHHH!!! There are so many people from where I live going. I've ordered a t-shirt. When should I get the code for pre-ticket sales?
This does mean that it's likely I will sell my 1 x Front Row VIP for Barclay Centre New York on 14th July - would anyone be interested before I put it online?

Shania Twain has announced details of a UK arena tour.
The Canadian country superstar has posted details of six arena shows across the UK as part of her world NOW tour, kicking off in Glasgow on Friday, September 21.
The show is in support of her forthcoming album of the same name, which is released on September 29. It's Shania's first studio album in 15 years, since 2002's Up.
The NOW tour also includes stops at Manchester, Birmingham, Dublin and Belfast, before wrapping up at London's O2 arena on October 2. Shania last toured the UK and Ireland in 2004 as part of her Up world tour, though this summer she played a one-off show in London for BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park.
Tickets go on sale at 10am, Friday September 29 and are available from here. Fans can pre-order the new album via the official Shania UK store to get access to an exclusive pre-sale for tickets. More details can be found here.
Shania Twain's NOW UK and Ireland tour dates appear below:
September 2018 Fri 21 - Glasgow, Scotland - The SSE Hydro Sat 22 - Manchester, England - Manchester Arena Mon 24 - Birmingham, England - Birmingham Arena Wed 26 - Dublin, Ireland - 3Arena Sat 29 - Belfast, Northern Ireland - The SSE Arena
Hi,
I am hoping she will add more US dates. I would like some dates in NC or SC. I need to see the new music live and I need it to be closer to where I am. OH PLEASE LET her do this...it is killing me wondering if she will.
I have waited so long...been so patient for new material and not to get the chance to see her perform it live...what a let down. I loved the Rock This Country tour but the new music is the real Shania and I want to be a part of it...guess I will have to keep waiting as usual.
It may be like her up tour. Where she went to Europe then came back to the U.S. I'm thinking she'll do some european shows, take the holidays off, and resume into 2019, and maybe go elsewhere. Australia? Asia? She also needs to be cautious with her vocals I think too.
Shania Twain manager Scott Rodger says he’s still waiting for a resolution of an apparent impediment with Garth Brooks’ camp regarding Twain’s Aug. 25 onsale.
Rodger has been vocal about his frustration that the sale on Twain’s website will list all of the venues of the 2018 tour except one: the Nashville date that should list Bridgestone Arena. Instead, the July 21 show has the curious listing of “TBA.”
“On Friday, every other show on the tour will go on sale,” Rodger told Pollstar. “From a fan perspective, it would be, ‘Why are you not putting your Nashville show on sale?’ ‘Oh, we’re not allowed to because Garth Brooks won’t allow it.’”
odger claims that Brooks has holds for five nights at the venue in November (“He’s 100 percent, categorically playing Bridgestone. That’s why we’re not playing. There’s no one else in the world who would be able to do that”), although Brooks has not announced the shows yet.
“Garth Brooks contracts his shows really far in advance and as a part of his deal with certain buildings, wherever he can, he can prevent any other country show from going on sale in a window around his show,” Rodger said. “He is preventing all country shows from now going onsale through Dec. 1.”
Brooks manager Bob Doyle was unavailable for comment as was his promoter, Ben Farrell of Varnell Enterprises, who told Billboard’s Hannah Karp that Brooks had no Nashville dates confirmed and keeps his business dealings with venues private.
Although a “radius” clause can be and often is inserted into a contract preventing, for instance, a festival performer from playing in the area before or after the event, Rodger takes special exception to the alleged situation with Garth because he says Twain isn’t a country show.
“Obviously country radio doesn’t play her. Look at all the country radio charts. I did a pitch to the building saying, ‘Go read Billboard. Go to Spotify. Here’s all our social data from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram.’ We gave them all this data. Her core audience is on the East Coast and West Coast; not Nashville,” he said.
“It doesn’t mean Nashville isn’t an important city for her but it’s not her core audience. Her song is No. 18, I think, on the Adult Contemporary chart this week, which is more pop-leaning.”
David Kells, senior VP of booking at Bridgestone, provided Pollstar with a statement: “We don’t comment on shows that haven’t been announced at Bridgestone Arena or our deals with each individual artist or event, but we’re totally proud of our 20-year history of serving the music community in Nashville and all the fans who like coming here to see shows.”
As for TBA, Rodger didn’t rule out other options.
“We have been exploring doing something outdoors because I don’t want to play in a building that has policies like this in place,” he said. “The building actually came and offered us money. They offered to pay us over and above our sellout. They offered to pay 10 percent on top. They were doing everything for me to not go public on this. I said, ‘Keep your money. Just let her go on sale.’”
“We have never offered somebody to not report a story,” Kells told Pollstar.
MUSIC TO OUR EARS Shania Twain announces SECOND concert date at Dublin’s 3 Arena due to phenomenal demand
Tickets for a second gig on Thursday, September 27, 2018, will go on sale this Thursday at 9am.
By Olga Cronin | The Irish Sun | October 1, 2017
COUNTRY pop star Shania Twain has announced a second date at the 3 Arena in Dublin next year.
The Canadian singer will now perform on Thursday, September 27, 2018 and tickets for the gig will go on sale this Thursday at 9am.
The second concert has been announced this morning after tickets for her gig at the 3 Arena on Wednesday, September 26, 2018 sold out within minutes of going on sale on Friday.
Tickets for the Grammy Award winner’s September 27 gig cost €63.50, including booking and facility fees, and will be available from Ticketmaster.
When the Man! I Feel Like A Woman star hits the 3 Arena stage next year it’ll have been 13 years since she last played on Irish soil.
She has sold 90 million albums worldwide and remains the top-selling female country artist of all time.
I'm a bit disappointed that she hasn't announced another date in Scotland. She's doing 3 dates in England, now 3 in Ireland, and only 1 in Scotland - which was completely sold out with the pre-sales before general public sales started! Tickets are now being re-sold for twice/three/four times the cost.
Anyway... I'm just happy she's doing the UK tour - there are over 100 from our islands going to Glasgow to see her :)
To my European fans, I am super excited to announce I'll be bringing my NOW Tour to you guys next year! Tickets on sale this Friday, Germany shows on sale Friday 27th! ❤️ Dates:http://www.shaniatwain.com/tour
Shania added another concert in London - October 3
Shania Twain @ShaniaTwain
London! I've added an extra date at @TheO2 on my #ShaniaNOW Tour. Tickets are on sale this Friday and I'll see you guys October 2nd & 3rd! 😘http://www.shaniatwain.com/tour
Hi,
Still hoping she will add more US dates...hopefully when she sees how well received the album is she will add way more dates. As far as I am concerned she can perform the whole Now album and not do any of her old stuff. The new material will stand on it's own just fine although I would really like to see her perform I'm Jealous live just once before I die...guess I could say I would love to see her perform live just as many times as I can before I die.
