Are there still Lewis Capaldi Aberdeen tickets?

If you are hoping to get your hands on last minute tickets for Lewis Capaldi’s Aberdeen shows you may have some luck despite the show being sold out.

All tickets for the P&J Live are sold through AXS and there are currently a limited number available through the site.

For his show on Wednesday, if you are lucky enough, tickets will cost between £67 and £174 before fees. And for his Thursday performance, tickets will cost from £100 to £174, again before fees. In addition there are still some verified resale tickets appearing on Ticketmaster for similar prices.

If all of the tickets sold via AXS are gone, there are always ticket resale sites such as Viagogo, StubHub or Twickets.

With that being said, many of these tickets will be sold for well over the asking price and carry the risk of being fake. If you were thinking of using any of the above sites, it’s worth considering Twickets which is an “ethical” resale site.

While not entirely without risk, it only allows fans to sell their tickets for the same amount they paid or lower. There is also PayPal's Buyer Protection in case of foul play.
