Thousands of U2 fans in Brazil were left empty-handed and outraged after the ticket selling process went chaotically wrong.
Some fans of the Irish supergroup had been queuing up in Sao Paulo for around 12 hours and still didn’t get tickets after ticket machine broke down.
The show on February 20 was organised in conjunction with the Pao de Acucar supermarket group, the only place where fans could buy their tickets, reports the BBC.
The tickets which went for around £50 each were limited to ten per person.
Organisers apologised for the mayhem and promised that a second U2 date would be arranged soon.
