Girls Aloud fans who forked out more than £100 to see the girl group on stage are fuming after tickets prices were reportedly slashed by over 50%.
Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts are currently on the road for their first tour together since losing bandmate Sarah Harding to breast cancer in 2021. Fans desperate to be there as the Sound Of The Underground singers reunited have said they splashed out full price for tickets when they first went on sale.
But it seems The Girls Aloud Show has still not sold out and reports suggest some people were able to snap them up for as little as £30 in recent days. According to The Sun, ticket prices were on sale for as little as £39.35 ahead of Tuesday’s show at London’s O2 (June 25), with expensive seats going for £58.85.

And fans can also grab themselves a bargain for Wednesday’s final London show. Tickets prices are reportedly as low as £33.10.

The news has angered the fans who coughed up far more to see Cheryl and co perform, with many taking to X to express their frustration at ticket sellers. “Absolutely disgusting you are selling Girls Aloud tickets half price,” said one person. “We paid £202 for 2 tickets 21hrs ago as last minute. Same block now £52. Utterly unacceptable. How do we get the half price refund. I’m fuming.”
Another stormed: “Don’t know why I bother spending ages trying to get tickets when my friend just was emailed saying tickets are now half price for Girls Aloud.” Someone else posted that it was “annoying and unfair”. “Can’t help but want to cry looking at all the available and cheap Girls Aloud tickets when I paid £120 to be sat one row from the back,” said another.

“Now being offered tickets on an official website £25 I paid £113pp!!” wrote another miffed fan. Somebody else chimed in: “Silently fuming as there are heavily discounted Girls Aloud tickets now…”
However, others were delighted at the move. One said: “Went to see Girls Aloud tonight cause it was cheap tickets and they have a couple of bangers. Turns out I’m actually a huge fan, knew every single song and they are incredible.”
The tour is the group’s first since 2013 and the first since Sarah passed away at the age of 39, after battling breast cancer. Girls Aloud pay tribute to the late star in their show, with images of Sarah appearing on screens behind them. She has also featured in a performance of the track I’ll Stand By You, singing the main vocals while the others perform backing vocals.

As they kicked off their tour in Dublin last month, Nadine told the crowd: “When we were putting the show together, there was this piece of Sarah singing this song all by herself. Singing it amazingly and when we all heard it we were like ‘Wow, she should have done this whole one by herself the whole time.’ So she is going to tonight.”
