A presale is a special opportunity for fans to buy tickets for an event before the general public. An artist presale is a type of presale that is specific to a particular artist or performer. To access an artist presale, fans usually need a code and a secure link, which are sent out by the artist or the event producer. Some artists allow fans to register for specific ticket sales in advance, and on the day of the ticket sale, fans that have registered will be sent a text with a code. Ticketmaster also provides presale codes for the Live Nation presale or offer codes. Presale codes are always entered before choosing tickets, and they dont guarantee tickets.
