Peter Kay fans have been left feeling 'angry' after struggling to get O2 Priority tickets for his 2022-23 tour.
The tickets were due to go on sale at 10am, but for some fans, the app won't load anything. The much-loved comedian will perform at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool on Friday, January 6 and Saturday, January 7 2023 as part of a huge UK tour that will visit Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and more.
With O2 and Three customers due to get pre-sale tickets this morning, many have been left feeling panicked after the app refused to work. Taking to Twitter, one Peter Kay fan said: "O2 Priority site crashed. I NEED TO GET PETER KAY TICKETS WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE [cry emoji]."
