To be honest with you, as a promoter of events, Artists, brands, shows, concepts etc.. All have this idea that everyone in Qatar is loaded and that everyone can afford it.

We pay 4 times the amount for an artist as say America or UK for example. Somebody that goes for 15,000 Euro is asking for 100,000 Euro in Qatar.. This is passed on via high ticket prices. Its ridiculous, however, there is no getting over it at the moment until they realise that the average concert goer does not have 600QR for a ticket, the bubble is bursting as we speak... Its really sad to be honest.

Don't blame the organizers, blame the company that's probably selling to the promoter for over 1 million QR, i know how much these things cost.

With these ticket prices, i can imagine that the organizers are actually operating at a loss or breaking even and its government funded, that's just a calculated guess though...

Everything is expensive here, from venues, sound, light, printing materials, advertising... All of this is reflected in the ticket cost of any event here.]]> The_Event_Dude EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 14:53:03 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11221#msg-11221 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11221#msg-11221
You are right, it is indeed very expensive.

According to the flyer attached, it's by Feld Entertainment, [www.feldentertainment.com] which is from the USA.

The flyer also says, "Ask for family tickets" if that helps. They need to definately make prices more reasonable to encourage people to attend.]]> amnesia EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 07:13:05 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11220#msg-11220 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11220#msg-11220 Sonic EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 06:01:07 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11219#msg-11219 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11219#msg-11219 Sonic EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 05:59:14 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11211#msg-11211 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11211#msg-11211 christine EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 03:51:11 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11196#msg-11196 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11196#msg-11196Coming from the US.]]> amnesia EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 03:25:03 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11195#msg-11195 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11195#msg-11195 Sonic EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 03:14:22 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11192#msg-11192 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11192#msg-11192 amnesia EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 01:00:24 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11191#msg-11191 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11191#msg-11191
They give discount for family... as written on the pamflet
I heard also you will get one ticket free if you buy 4 tickets... still expensive ?
but this will be the same price if you see the musical in Broadway or London, remember they are coming maybe from London...]]> joel EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 01:00:05 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11187#msg-11187 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11187#msg-11187 christine EventsMon, 14 Dec 2009 00:09:08 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11152#msg-11152 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11152#msg-11152 joel EventsFri, 11 Dec 2009 00:07:34 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11132#msg-11132 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11132#msg-11132 amnesia EventsWed, 09 Dec 2009 00:11:27 -0800 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11094#msg-11094 http://iloveqatar.net/forum/read.php?27,11094,11094#msg-11094
