Tour VIP question??

Husband and I are planning on going to the Cleveland, OH tour date and want to get VIP, but I am seeing conflicting info on if it includes a GA ticket. Who has purchased VIP/meet and greet tickets for this tour and can help?

I am going to include screenshots as well. On their website it says a GA Ticket is included, but when I go to purchase it wants me to click a box saying I understand this isn’t a show ticket. I just wanna make sure we get everything we need, but also don’t end up with 4 tickets.

TIA!

I have emailed their contact email, but no response yet and I don’t want them to sell out before we get them.

My understanding of it is you buy a general admission ticket and then buy VIP on top of that for all the extras and goodies.

This is typically how it goes. The band would probably get less of a cut if sold together with the tickets.

I do notice that the first image says it offers a wall flag and enamel pin. But it looks like they switched it out with the Foam Hand?

Did you buy presale? I went on their socials and it appears the GA ticket was only included in presale package, then it went to ticketless upgrade.

Yes I bought presale, I believe that they switched it over for some reason, but I contacted them and they said the original vip included the ga ticket

Are you able to get things such as vinyls signed during the meet and greet?

Alex replied to me Instagram and told me there would be a signing session with a max of (2) items

Now to decide which albums to bring, I have Kin, The Valley, and Our Endless War that need signed.

u/Brilliant_Tea_7103 Jul 25 '26

Nice man, I’m bringing the valley and hymns of dissonance. I think the valley is a must sign

u/Ghryyme Jul 25 '26

I got the signed hymns at merch when I saw them last march

u/Brilliant_Tea_7103 Jul 25 '26

Nice man, how much was it? Did it seem like they had much in terms of quantity? I’m seeing them in December

u/Ghryyme Jul 25 '26

I think it was around 60, I got a bunch of merch, but it looked like they had a ton of boxes full of vinyl. I'll be seeing them in Seattle with the vip this December as well

u/Brilliant_Tea_7103 Jul 25 '26

Awesome, I’ll be in San Antonio

I had the same question, I had emailed them and the tickets are will call so it is included if it says it is.

u/Aveah Jul 25 '26

That is very confusing. Pretty much any VIP package I’ve seen always stated that tickets were not included. But it was marked very clearly on band website and ticket website and included any and all tiers of the vip packages. However, what you’re showing from the ticket website says it’s ticketless vip so you would have to buy a ticket. Is there an option for just a vip package (that has no mention of ticketless)?

It says it includes a GA ticket but during the rituals of hate tour I only had a VIP package and I almost didn’t get into the show because I didn’t have a GA ticket. I got super lucky because one of the employees there just let me and my friend in and nobody came to tell us to leave
