Fans are excited for Sleep Token to come to North America for their tour this year, but there seems to be a problem to those who already bought tickets as the group announced that they will cancel all passes that were purchased through scalpers and bots; what happened?
According to Consequence, there was a problem last week regarding the band's ticket pre-sale as there were fans who signed up ahead of time but never receive any codes, and some of them even received it late but it was too late as tickets were already sold out.
After the incident, tour promoter AEG Presents stated fans and the band, saying, "While our intentions were good, to put it simply: we failed. Our emails and sale codes were sent on time yet delivered to you late. And while there are many reasons for that, there's no excuse. We let Sleep Token and you down."
Sleep Token Not Allowing Tickets Purchased by Scalpers
Now that the tickets are sold out, Sleep Token is making a big move to prevent scalpers earn money by selling tickets as they are going to cancel their passes.
Taking to social media, the band wrote that tickets for their shows have "been swiftly depleted, save for limited remaining allocation in Montreal."

Sleep Token will take over the United States and Canada this 2024. They announced their tour by confusing fans first as they deleted all of their content from their Instagram account.
