UPDATE (May 16): The NCT DREAM presale has begun, and unfortunately, it looks like they have made a Weverse presale code required for VIP and Official Platinum. VIP and Official Platinum tickets normally do not require a presale code, but once in a rare while, especially when artists make their fans pay to receive a presale code (i.e. $25 NCTzen DREAM MEMBERSHIP through Weverse), they are at times required.

NCT DREAM has announced its 2024 NCT DREAM WORLD TOUR. The band will perform this next leg of its tour in Latin America, the U.S., and Europe. Fans in the U.S. can catch the charming South Korean boy band in cities like Los Angeles, Oakland, Chicago, and more. Eager fans can score presale tickets as early as Monday, May 13, for Latin America, Wednesday, May 15, for Europe, and Thursday, May 16, for the U.S. The tour will make a Los Angeles stop at Intuit Dome on Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024. 

Tickets to NCT Dream are priced at $55 to $195 + service fees. VIP tickets are also available for $446. Please note: prices vary by city and market. Find a tour date near you for exact pricing.

NCTzen DREAM Membership Presale

To access the NCT DREAM Membership presale, you must purchase a $25 NCTzen DREAM MEMBERSHIP through Weverse. The presale begins Thursday, May 16, at 3 p.m. local time. The registration window closes on May 9th. Once you get your presale code, all tickets for NCT DREAM’s tour will be sold via Ticketmaster.

If you missed it, don’t worry—you still have other options to get those NCT DREAM presale tickets.

VIP Packages Presale

The VIP Package presale also opens on Thursday, May 16, at 3 p.m. local time. There is no need for a presale code. Historically, with all the many presales we write about every week, that’s how all VIP package presales work with Ticketmaster/Live Nation. We expect it to be the same for NCT DREAM since tickets for their entire tour are being sold through Ticketmaster.

Once the presale begins, you will look for the VIP Packages ticket options. Once you click on it, you’ll see DREAM SOUNDCHECK VIP PACKAGE. This package includes premium tickets, access to the pre-show NCT Dream soundcheck, exclusive VIP gift items, and more. See all the perks you get with the DREAM SOUNDCHECK VIP PACKAGE!

Official Platinum Preale

The Official Platinum presale will also be available on  Thursday, May 16, at 3 p.m. local time. You do not need a presale code to participate in this presale; however, expect general admission tickets to be more expensive. The Event Organizer(s) has priced these tickets according to their market value (aka dynamic pricing). In other words, ticket pricing can go up or down and usually go up. Just select your NCT DREAM tour date and select the option for Official Platinum tickets.

Official platinum tickets do not include VIP packages. The only positive thing about them is that they make buying floor or front-row tickets to a high-demand concert very easy if you’re willing to shed the extra coin. They can be bought during a presale without a presale code (which doesn’t always apply to Verified Fan). Availability and pricing for official platinum tickets are subject to change based on demand.

If money is not an object, you should definitely bank on the convenience of getting Official Platinum tickets.

Pro Tips When Buying Your Tickets

First, on the day of the presale or general onsale (whichever you prefer), login to your Ticketmaster account (go to my account or sign in located on the upper right corner of the page) 30 minutes ahead of the sale time. If you don’t have one, create one now.

Be sure to add your billing info (aka credit card info) before jumping into the digital queue for a quick check-out. Once the presale starts, remain in the digital queue. Only use one browser window because using multiple browsers or devices and multiple accounts with the same phone number can result in errors. Trust, it’s happened to us before! Don’t refresh your page, do be patient, don’t leave your page, do get those tickets!

What To Do If Tickets Are Sold Out?

If tickets sell out, your other option is to buy them via online resellers like VividSeats or StubHub. When all else fails, we prefer these resell options because both offer a 100% Guarantee. You can also purchase resale tickets through Ticketmaster’s resale program. Just search for the concert or event you want to attend, and see if any resale tickets are available. We recommend comparing the three options to determine which one works best for you.

Also, more standard tickets are often released in the weeks leading up to the show date. We’ve seen it with Oasis, Nine Inch Nails, BLACKPINK, and many more. These tickets are normally production release tickets and sideview/limited-view tickets. It’s a secret gatekept by many, but if you’re reading this, now you know.
