Tickets for most dates are on sale now.

Louis has a warning for fans looking at tickets on the secondary market.

“Regarding ticket resale: we take great efforts and have many methods of finding out what inventory is being sold on ‘broker’ sites like Stubhub and Vivid Seats and immediately invalidating those tickets,” he writes. “Due to this we recommend that anyone who chooses to purchase these seats does so at their own risk. If the ticket becomes invalidated, we are not responsible, and unfortunately the consumer could lose money and not get into the show. We cannot tell anyone specifically which seats will be invalidated but we can tell you that there is a legitimate chance that any and all of them can be.”
