Live Nation has announced plans for an all-inclusive Club Passport that will allow concertgoers in major cities to attend every show at select venues from now until December 31st for $49.99. It’s an interesting way to put bodies in mid-level indoor venues now that the summer concert circuit has come to an end and time has run out on Live Nation’s No Service Fee Wednesday.
We were considering purchasing one of these passports in order to see both nights of Devo’s upcoming tour at New York’s Irving Plaza in November, but remember there are strings attached: buying the Passport doesn’t guarantee you entrance. If the concert is sold out, you’re not getting in with the Passport, it’s not a Golden Ticket that makes you not count toward capacity. But for shows that aren’t sold out, you just show up at your local venue featuring the offer or reserve your ticket at the Live Nation website and you’re in, no fees or additional charges.
As this is a Live Nation promotion, a horde of LN-owned Fillmores and Houses of Blues are included in this deal. Check out the list of venues below and hit up Pollstar to see which gigs you might want to check out:
