Overview

  • All 17 September 2025 arena shows sold out within seconds, leading Capaldi to expand his comeback tour from ten to 17 dates
  • Fans reported widespread Ticketmaster crashes, queue drops and checkout errors that left many unable to secure resale tickets
  • Capaldi described the response as “the most incredible surreal feeling,” thanking supporters and apologizing to those who missed out
  • He announced there will be no further additions “for now” to protect his health after a two-year hiatus managing anxiety and Tourette’s syndrome
  • Ticket prices ranged from £32.50 to £99.75 plus a £2.50 handling fee, and the episode has reignited scrutiny over platform reliability under extreme demand
