Fans have been vocal about their anger and disappointment at their inability to get tickets on social media. Some have claimed that they were directed to the ticketing site a minute after tickets went on sale but found that they were sold out, while others said that fans had queued up at SingPost from 6am to buy physical tickets but were also unable to secure passes.

Check out a few reactions below.

It is also currently unclear if an additional concert in Singapore or a shift to a larger venue will be announced. NME has contacted Live Nation for comment.

Singapore is so far the only country in SEVENTEEN’s Southeast Asia tour slate to receive just one concert date. The group are playing two shows each in Jakarta, Manila and Bangkok. SEVENTEEN also announced a six-show tour of Japan last month.

SEVENTEEN are just one of the many international acts returning to Southeast Asia this year. Other high-profile tours and festivals include performances from Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, Maroon 5, LANY and more.
