Nothing But Thieves Presale 2027: How to Get Tickets, Country by Country

The Nothing But Thieves presale for 2027 is easiest to understand as a story in three acts. In January and February 2027 the band plays arenas in the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Italy, Belgium, Ireland and Britain, including two nights at Amsterdam's Ziggo Dome and a London night at The O2. From 30 March to 21 April the route turns to North America, where it drops to theatres and large clubs such as the Paramount in Seattle, the Hollywood Palladium and the Salt Shed in Chicago. Our sales information says that European tickets went on sale on 5 June 2026 and that the UK general sale opened the same day via Ticketmaster, while North American tickets have been on sale since June 2026 as well.

That early release means that the first presale rush is now many months behind us, and most of the questions you may have are about the later stages of a long on-sale: returns, venue changes and the quirks of buying in a country that is not your own. The route also shows an unusual contrast between huge Dutch and British arenas and small American rooms with only a few thousand places, which changes your odds from market to market. Below we take each act in turn, with the platform, the habits and the traps. We publish no codes, and we cannot promise access to any show.

How the Nothing But Thieves presale worked in the arena act

For the arena shows, our records describe a simple pattern: Europe on sale from 5 June 2026 through the official outlets, and the UK and Ireland general sale on the same date through Ticketmaster and the venues. The entry for Antwerp's listing and the Dutch dates do not mention a fan-club tier, a card partner or a streaming window, and we will not claim one. What we can say is that, for a band with a loyal following and a record of selling large halls, a mailing-list or fan-club window often exists, and that the band's own announcement is the only reliable place to find out. If you missed that early opportunity, the arena act has the advantage of scale. Rooms with ten thousand seats or more continue to release tickets over many months, and verified resale pages on the primary platforms tend to be busy. The Ziggo Dome in particular has a large capacity and two consecutive nights on 15 and 16 January, so there is a better chance to find a pair of seats than at a sold-out club. Check the page of your date at different times, since the system may show different blocks depending on how many people are in the queue.

Amsterdam, Prague, Milan and Antwerp: Nothing But Thieves presale on the continent

The continental dates run from 15 January to 31 January: Amsterdam twice, Prague's O2 universum on 22 January, Milan's Unipol Forum on 24 January and Antwerp's AFAS Dome on 31 January. Dutch fans usually buy through Ticketmaster or the Ziggo Dome's own channels, Czech buyers through Ticketportal or GoOut, and Italian buyers through TicketOne, while Belgian buyers use Ticketmaster Belgium or the venue's partner. Each country has a slightly different checkout, with different insurance add-ons and different rules about which payment cards are accepted, so create the account before you need it. The O2 universum in Prague is a smaller room than the Dutch and British halls, and that is often where demand outstrips supply. Milan's Unipol Forum is a mid-size arena where named tickets and identity checks can apply, depending on the order terms. Our Dutch presale guide and Italian presale guide contain more on agents and delivery. When using the Nothing But Thieves presale information for these shows, remember that the data names no special early window, so the best approach is the verified resale tab and the box office.

Dublin and six British cities: Nothing But Thieves presale for the UK and Ireland

The UK leg begins with Dublin's 3Arena on 2 February and continues in Nottingham on 4 February, The O2 in London on 5 February, Cardiff on 8 February, Glasgow's OVO Hydro on 10 February, Manchester's Co-op Live on 12 February and Birmingham on 13 February. The sales record states that general sale opened on 5 June 2026 via Ticketmaster and the venues. British arenas also sell through their own sites, and the large London room has a very active fan-to-fan exchange, so check both before assuming the date has gone. Resale rules in Britain and Ireland are changing, and the safest approach is to read the platform's terms and the current legal position before listing or buying a ticket. The primary exchange transfers tickets electronically and keeps the barcode valid, which is a practical advantage over a screenshot sent by message. See the UK presale guide and the Irish presale guide for queue behaviour, ticket limits and mobile delivery, and keep in mind that a Wednesday or Thursday show tends to carry lower resale prices than the Friday or Saturday.

North American theatres: the Nothing But Thieves presale in a smaller-room market

Once the tour crosses the Atlantic, the venues shrink and the logic changes. Vancouver's Queen Elizabeth Theatre opens on 30 March, followed by Seattle, Portland, Oakland, Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit, McKees Rocks near Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Boston and then Montreal's MTELUS and Toronto's Massey Hall in the last days. Our data says that US and Canadian tickets have been on sale since June 2026 through Ticketmaster and the venue box offices, and many of these theatres and ballrooms also sell through their own sites. The smaller the room, the more a single order matters. Capacities of two to five thousand mean that a handful of general admission or floor tickets disappear quickly, and a Nothing But Thieves presale in this market rewarded those who were ready on the first morning. Today, the remaining options are verified resale and box-office returns. Ontario has tightened the rules on reselling above face value, whereas many US states permit it with disclosure rules, so check the platform terms. The US guide and the Canadian guide go through ticket limits and delivery.

Why the Nothing But Thieves presale route label is misleading

The tour name in our data is "2027 UK & European Tour", but the date list includes fourteen American shows and three Canadian ones. That label is geographically wrong for the full run and is probably an artefact of the first announcement, which covered only the UK and Europe. We have therefore described the tour by its real dates and not by the name. For a buyer the lesson is simple: do not assume that a page titled for one region contains the whole schedule, and check each date individually before booking travel. The same caution applies to venue names, which change with sponsorship deals. Several of the arenas listed carry corporate names that did not exist a few years ago, and a ticket might be sold under the old name on some platforms. If a search for a date fails, search for the city and the month instead. Where a date shows a different hall than the one you expected, ask the venue before paying, and keep the confirmation. Ask for the answer in writing. A mismatch between the tour page and the ticket page is a good reason to pause rather than to rush.

A practical Nothing But Thieves presale kit for foreign trips

If you are travelling to see the band abroad, assemble a small kit. First, accounts on the national agents for each country you may buy in, with passwords stored and two-step verification tested. Second, a payment card that works abroad and a backup, with the bank notified of the trip. Third, a plan for the day of the show that includes the venue's bag policy, the entry time and the nearest transport. Finally, a plan for the ticket itself: a download in the wallet app, a backup screenshot and a note of the order number. The kit matters most in the North American act, where some venues are general admission and queue for hours, and in the Dutch act, where the arena has strict rules on bags and professional cameras. Theatres in the United States often check identification against the name on the order, and some ballrooms have age restrictions. Read the venue's page before you leave, because the rules can be tighter than at a British arena. If you are travelling with children or friends from other countries, share the details in a message thread so that everyone has them.

Weekday patterns in the Nothing But Thieves presale route

Looking at the calendar helps you choose which date to chase. In the arena act, Amsterdam plays on a Friday and Saturday, Prague on a Friday, Milan on a Sunday and Antwerp on a Sunday, while the British run mixes Thursday, Friday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings. In the American act, shows fall on every day of the week, including Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during the first half of April. Weekday shows usually have a smaller pool of travellers, which means that returns and resale listings are more likely to appear at reasonable prices, whereas Friday and Saturday dates attract the biggest crowds.

That is not a rule, and a sold-out Tuesday in a small theatre can be harder than a large arena on a Saturday. The point is to widen your search, not to narrow it. Before you give up on a city, look at the days on either side, and compare the ticket categories as well as the prices. A seat in a side tier of a large arena may offer a better view than the last row of a stalls section in a theatre. Take your time over the seating map, because it is the one part of the process that you control. The Seattle and Portland dates on 31 March and 1 April show the point well, because two small rooms on consecutive nights give a flexible fan a second try.

Nothing But Thieves presale FAQ

Nothing But Thieves sold a tour spanning arenas in the Netherlands and Britain and theatres and ballrooms in North America on a single June 2026 release, so the questions fans ask tend to be about scale: which rooms are hardest, what happens when the hall differs from the one on the tour poster and how to buy across a border. The answers below rely on the June 2026 sales entries for Europe, the UK and Ireland, the United States and Canada, and they leave out prices and access links entirely, since none appear in our records and none would be published here in any case.

Is any Nothing But Thieves presale open now?

For the dates in our data, no early window is open, because the European sale began on 5 June 2026, the UK general sale opened the same day and North America has been on sale since June 2026. If a date is added, the announcement would carry the hour and the platform, and our alerts would pass it on. Until then, rely on verified resale, box-office returns and the venue's own newsletter, and ignore anyone who offers a code for a sale that has already opened. A genuine early window is always published by the band or the venue with a date and a time, and it never requires payment to a stranger.

Which Nothing But Thieves presale shows are the hardest to get?

Small rooms are the hardest: Seattle's Paramount, Portland's Crystal Ballroom, the Hollywood Palladium and Toronto's Massey Hall hold far fewer people than the European arenas, so the same demand meets less supply. Prague and Antwerp are also compact compared with the British and Dutch halls. The easiest shows are usually the large arena dates on weekdays, where returns and verified resale appear regularly. Treat this as a general pattern, not a promise, and check the live page before you plan travel. If you are choosing between two cities, compare the total cost of the trip as well as the ticket price, because transport and accommodation often decide which show is the better value.

Can I buy a Nothing But Thieves presale ticket in another country?

In most cases yes, but check the details. Agents may ask for a local billing address, some cards trigger fraud checks abroad, and the tickets may be delivered only to an app that has to be downloaded in advance. Currency conversion fees can apply, and the final price may differ from the headline. If you are crossing a border, read the entry rules and the venue's policy on bags, cameras and age. A trip across two countries requires two accounts, so prepare them early, and keep the confirmation emails from each agent in one folder so that you can find them quickly at the door.

What should I do if a Nothing But Thieves presale venue changes?

Read the email from the agent carefully and in full. Most venue changes include a refund window and sometimes an exchange to another date, and the message will explain the deadline. Do not sell the ticket to someone else until the situation is clear, because the buyer would inherit the same problem and you may be responsible for it. If you have booked travel, check whether the hotel and transport can be cancelled without charge, and contact the venue's customer service if you do not receive an answer within a few days, quoting the order number, the date and the name on the booking.

Does the Nothing But Thieves presale use dynamic pricing?

Our records do not mention dynamic pricing for this tour, and we will not guess. Some platforms and some promoters use variable prices for part of the inventory, and the price shown may change between the queue and the checkout. The safest habit is to look at the total price at the final step, take a screenshot of it, and compare it with the ticket category you wanted. If the price seems out of line with the announced range, wait for a few hours and look again, and do not let a countdown clock rush you into a purchase you are unsure about. The Ziggo Dome nights on 15 and 16 January and the Dublin 3Arena date on 2 February are large enough that category changes during a queue are plausible, so the final screen matters.
