Ticketmaster Experiences Brief Outage — Live Updates
As the weekend approached, users began reporting issues with Ticketmaster’s website and mobile app, according to outage-tracking platform DownDetector and similar monitoring services.
Reports of disruptions started gaining traction around 9 a.m. PT, peaking at over 1,000 incident reports within an hour. Affected users cited login failures on the website and app crashes during ticket purchase attempts.
The outage appeared to be resolved by approximately 10:15 a.m. PT. While the exact cause remains unclear, some customer service accounts on X (formerly Twitter) confirmed the issue had been fixed but did not provide further details.
Our team continues to monitor the situation and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
Unlike many major online services, Ticketmaster does not maintain a public-facing status page for real-time incident tracking. As of now, the company’s official social media channels have not addressed the outage beyond individual support representatives directing users to contact them via direct messages.
Historically, Ticketmaster outages have often been linked to high demand for major artist ticket sales—such as those for Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, or BTS. However, at this time, there does not appear to be a high-profile event driving unusually heavy traffic. Reports indicate that users encountered issues while attempting to purchase tickets for a range of events, from indie concerts to sporting events.
