MUSIC fans in Glasgow are forking out more for concert tickets than anyone else in the UK.
Wanderu have revealed that the cost of a concert ticket in Glasgow is the fifth highest in Europe with the average brief coming in at £104.61. Tickets for shows in Vienna, Munich, Hamburg and Zurich only come in higher.
The city was also the most expensive place in the UK to see a show, according to the research.
The travel website Wanderu, said: "Determined to find the cities with the cheapest and most expensive concert tickets in Europe, we analyzed the price points for 14 large-scale arena tours that took place in 2017 or are scheduled to occur in 2018. Those included tours by global music superstars such as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Shakira, Kendrick Lamar, Sam Smith, and Shania Twain, among others.
"The first thing that stands out when you look at the UK chart is London’s unexpected second place. Though it’s one of the most expensive cities in the world, and a preferred entertainment destination for millions of travellers, the British capital concedes the top spot to Scotland’s Glasgow where a concert ticket will cost you roughly 4% more."
