UPDATE (Dec. 3, 2024) Kendrick & SZA Announce The Grand National Tour 2025 — Two Presale Options Available for Early Tickets

Kendrick Lamar has shared details for Ken & Friends – The Pop Out, a newly revealed “secret show” that will come to Los Angeles at the Kia Forum on June 19th. Though the one-night-only concert is far from being a covert or remotely undercover event now that he’s posted it on his story. Nevertheless, you’re going to want to know all the ins and outs of ticket onsale times and presale codes if you want to get tickets!

A general onsale will take place on Friday, June 7th at 10am local time, followed by a Cash App presale on Thursday, June 6th at 10am local time.

Kendrick Lamar "secret show"

Earlier this afternoon Kendrick Lamar posted the above photo on his Instagram story. It didn’t take long for the announcement to spread across social media, catching fire like the rapper’s recent bars in the ongoing feud he’s had with Drake. Ironically enough that’s also where the “secret show” gets its name from, borrowing a line from Lamar’s diss track “Not Like Us.”

You can be sure the whole internet knows that he’s hosting a gig at the Kia Forum this month on Juneteenth. What we don’t know is who these “friends” will be — though given its early start time at 4pm — it’s safe to assume the show will be packed with surprise guests.

What Is The Kendrick Lamar Presale Code?

Fans can get tickets to Kendrick Lamar’s not-so-secret show Ken & Friends – The Pop Out ahead of the general onsale through one available presale option. If you see Official Platinum tickets remember that no presale code is needed to purchase them.

Cash App Presale

The Cash App presale begins on Thursday, June 6th at 10am local time. You will need to be a Cash App cardholder to participate in this presale. Use the first 9 digits of your Cash App card to unlock presale access and be sure to use that same card to buy your tickets for Kendrick Lamar.

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.
