Billie Eilish fans slam star’s ‘vile’ Hit Me Hard and Soft tour ticket prices

Billie Eilish has announced the ticket prices for her tour both in Australia and around the world, and while many fans are desperate to get tickets, others are less than impressed.

Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour will hit Australia in summer 2025 and tickets go on sale starting tomorrow (May 2nd) when the pre-sale happens.

But with the prices now revealed, Eilish has many fans questioning how they’re going to afford to pay for tickets in the current cost of living crisis that’s hit households around the globe.

The cheapest D reserve tickets in the nosebleeds start from $129.90 in Australia and prices go all the way up to $269.90 for A reserve aisle seating.

Regular GA standing tickets will set you back a whopping $199.90.

For reference, Taylor Swift, who toured Australia earlier this, charged $40 less for nosebleed tickets.

In the UK, GA standing tickets will cost fans a massive £150 after booking fees ($289 Aus).

Fans have rushed to social media platforms such as Twitter and Reddit to slam Eilish for the “vile” amount she’s charging to see her live, with many questioning the huge jump from her last tour.

“Paid £57 ($100 Aus) for my happier than ever seat got the same seat for Hit me Hard and soft and it was £148.70 ($285 Aus)” ranted one angry fan.

“I couldn’t believe the prices. I just saw Muse in the same venue last year and am seeing Foo Fighters in a few months (both HUGE bands) and the prices were about 33 per cent less,” claimed a second.

Another hit back: “Yeah ticket prices these days are ridiculous. And that’s not even starting on how much effort it takes to get a ticket in the first place.”

“It’s absolutely insanity,” complained one fan, while another said: “Absolutely insane. I can’t believe there are so many people out there that can afford to buy these!”

For those who can afford the shows, Eilish will touch down in Brisbane first for four shows starting from February 18. Next, she’ll rock Sydney for another four nights, before it’s finally our turn in Melbourne.

The 22-year-old superstar’s third album Hit Me Hard and Soft will be released on May 17.

General sale kicks off on Friday, May 3 at 3pm local time via Ticketek.
