Lewis Capaldi fans did everything they could to secure concert tickets after the Scottish star announced a number of shows. The fan-favourite singer recently made an emotional comeback at Glastonbury last month, two years after he last performed at the very same festival at Worthy Farm.

The occasion came two years after he last performed at the festival. The Someone You Loved singer, 28, struggled to finish his set last time out, with his voice faltering in a touching message to the crowd. Upon his return to the limelight, Lewis announced a string of shows in September, which fans scrambled to secure tickets.

He said after his shows sold out: “Honestly didn’t expect this at all… genuinely had no idea what to expect after taking a break for so long so be seeing this tour sell out faster than any tour i’ve ever played is the most incredible surreal feeling.

“Thank you to every single one of you who got a ticket and i’m very sorry to any of you who wanted to come and missed out this time. there won’t be any other shows for now, want to make sure I don’t push myself too far too soon.

“Means more than ya know how many of you were waiting to get tickets this morning.” Fans rushed to the comment section to reveal they queued on the website for ages just to get tickets.

One user said: “An hour of my life I won’t get back,” as one added: “Same,” along with a crying face emoji. Another shared a screenshot of the remaining tickets, which was on sale for over £200.

“This is just s**t for people who wanted tickets,” they commented. One said: “I’m absolutely gutted @TicketmasterUK are a joke kicked me out when I clicked to join queue for the 14th. I was only signed in on one browser & one device so had to start all over.”

Another wrote: “We tried so hard and queued for so many different arenas but got nothing. Hope you come to the UK again so we get another shot. Honestly our dream to see you live.”

Lewis recently spoke about his 2023 Glastonbury performance, which he sees as the “worst moment of my life”.

Lewis has said: “I was on complete autopilot. I watch it back and I feel sad. I wasn’t taking anything in.”

He thanked those helping him through it, saying they “made it a much less embarrassing moment”. Lewis also explained: “The thing that I wanted to do the most has made me feel the worst. It was like a weird mix of emotions.”

He went on on say that while others see the clip from the day as uplifting as the crowd helped him through, he sees it as him “just having literally the worst moment of his life”.
