Vybz Kartel is set to make his return to the U.S. stage next month with a show taking place at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. Many may have to be ‘band their bellies” to afford the exorbitant cost of the tickets. They took to social media to express their shock and comparing his seat rates to another artist known to charge fans a pretty penny to see her in person.
“Has vybz kartel lost his mind with these concert prices ??? LMAOOOO not even Beyoncé charged this much,” added another fan questioning his ticket rates. Check out snapshots of Kartel’s prices below.
Others suggested that the venue itself is inadequate, hoping that the event will be moved from the Brooklyn arena to Manhattan’s Madison Square Garden to accommodate more fans. The capacity of the Barclays Center is 19,000.
The Barclays Center’s official X account was the first to confirm the welcome back show, posting, “JUST ANNOUNCED: Vybz Kartel comes to Brooklyn on April 11!” General sale begins Thursday (March 6) at 10 a.m. Tickets can be purchased on Ticketmaster or the official Reggae Fest website. Doors open at 7 p.m. See the announcement below.
