The Stardew Valley Festival of Seasons tour will begin in February 2024 and will travel across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, South Korea, and Thailand.
Since its initial launch in 2016, Stardew Valley has firmly established itself as an icon within the life-sim genre. Dedicated fans have long asked the game's creator, Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, for real world experiences and opportunities to enjoy the story of Stardew Valley. After the announcement of the Festival of Seasons concert tour, many fans celebrated, though tickets are already selling out quickly and leaving some fans frustrated.
Tickets for Stardew Valley's Festival of Seasons just went on sale the morning of October 13 in multiple cities around the world, and many locations are already reporting sold out venues and dates. The official website lists Melbourne, Australia and London, UK as completely sold out. While other stops on the tour list show tickets as still available, numerous fans on social media are sharing that many other cities are also sold out. Fans claim that Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia tickets sold out within minutes of sales opening. Others have stated that ticket availability has randomly popped up, even after some of the ticket pages, such as the site for the Toronto show, stated that no seats remained. Several Stardew Valley fans have reported that ticket scalpers have already begun to re-sell tickets for inflated prices, potentially explaining the quick sell-out times. Stardew Valley creator ConcernedApe had previously stated that more dates and cities may be added in the future, so fans are anxiously waiting for updates on whether more tickets will become available.
ConcernedApe has not yet commented on the current status of sold out venues, and the official website still lists Melbourne and London as the only tour stops with no tickets available. Many fans are remaining hopeful that the quick sales will encourage the Stardew Valley creator to add more dates and cities to the tour, though some still fear that scalpers will continue to pose a threat to fans wanting to attend this special event. For dedicated fans of Stardew Valley, this concert tour is a must-go opportunity, and many are keeping their fingers crossed for more chances to enjoy Festival of Seasons.
With the massive and ever-growing popularity of Stardew Valley, it should come as no surprise that a special music event like Festival of Seasons is selling out quickly. That said, it is unfortunate to see fans becoming frustrated with tickets selling out almost immediately, something that has become unfortunately common with live event ticketing. The Stardew Valley community is tightly-knit, and ConcernedApe is beloved for their dedication to the fan base. As such, fans should keep an eye on the official ticket page and Festival of Seasons social media accounts for updates on potential additions to the tour.
