Computicket distances itself from Adele’s Coming to Africa concert

An adele concert was advertised on the computicket website where tickets went for only r89. fans soon realised it was a scam..

Computicket has distanced itself from the Adele concert that was publicised on their website. According to the listing, the concert is set to take place in September this year.

“Certain aspects regarding the event in question require further clarification and do not currently meet Computicket Box Office’s requirements to list an event,” the ticketing company told The Citizen .

Red flags were hoisted by Adele fans as a concert titled Adele Presents: Coming to Africa was advertised on the Computicket website where tickets went for a measly R89, which fans soon realised was a scam.

But speaking to The Citizen , Computicket said it has removed the event from its site and had begun refunding those who fell for the scam .

“As such it has been suspended and removed from sale pending clarification from the promoter. Refunds for all patrons who purchased tickets have already commenced.”

Sassa urges public to stop sharing fake Grant-in-Aid messages, warns of scam

However, on Monday afternoon, the link which Computicket claimed to have suspended, remained active.

Self-service ‘Box Office’

Computicket said Adele Presents: Coming to Africa was listed on Computicket Box Office, a self-service platform launched in 2022 to service organisers of smaller events.

Ticketing services have traditionally been limited to large event organisers who can afford a comprehensive offering.

To solve this challenge, Computicket created the self-service platform that offers organisers the full benefit of its distribution platform, which includes selling tickets online and/or at the Money Market counters in Shoprite, Checkers and Usave supermarkets nationally – an option not commonly available for smaller events.

“Daily vetting and monitoring of events listed on Computicket Box Office are conducted to ensure accuracy of event information, and all users are required to agree to the platforms’ terms and conditions, acknowledging their responsibilities as event organisers.”

“To safeguard consumer interests, no funds are disbursed to promoters until after an event has successfully taken place.”

Th e most expensive ticket

The British multi-award-winning singer reportedly has the most expensive ticket prices in the US according to Forbes .

Adele’s residency shows at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas were the priciest concerts nationwide in the first half of the year, with fans shelling out an average of nearly $1,500 [R27 000] to see the Someone Like You singer.

The average ticket price to see Adele, who has been performing “Weekends With Adele” on and off since November 2022 at Caesars Palace, was $1,462 on mobile ticketing platform SeatGeek through the first half of the year, beating the second-ranked artist by over $200.

Adele Laurie Blue Adkins is one of the most celebrated vocalists alive today. Her uniquely powerful voice, exceptional vocal talent, songwriting expertise, and relentless drive to improve her craft have cemented her firmly at the top of the music industry – and the charts.

Adele’s impressive songwriting credits, long list of music awards, and consistently sold-out tours are testaments to her widespread fame. Since her debut in 2007, no one can deny she is one of the best vocalists of our time.

Before Adele became a powerhouse musician, she honed her skills during her childhood in London, UK. Adele held a deep passion for singing and refining her vocals from the age of four, which eventually led her to the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology. She spent her school years diving deeper into music creation, learning songwriting and guitar. Soon enough, her pathway to success was well within reach.

Following graduation, Adele took the next step toward securing a solid record deal. She quickly landed a recording contract with the UK’s XL Recordings in 2006. Her 2007 single “Hometown Glory” provided a sneak peek of what Adele was capable of. New listeners couldn’t deny her strong, powerful singing range as she belted out her best on the breakthrough track.

Her rise began earnestly when “Chasing Pavements” hit the radio waves in 2008. It slid smoothly onto the UK charts and set the tone for her debut album 19. Adele’s signature sound made waves in mainstream media. She had the voice, songwriting skills, and full-fledged potential to become the next certified phenom.

Because of 19’s undeniable versatility, Adele earned two Grammy awards for Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 2009. The stakes were high for the songstress’s follow-up projects, but thanks to Adele’s staple work ethic and natural talent, she tackled her next era with grace.

In 2011, Adele stepped away from her usual ballads with “Rolling in the Deep,” delivering pop-friendly, blues-inspired beats. As the single soared in popularity on the radio and internationally, so did Adele’s star status. Her sophomore studio album 21 dropped in 2011, bringing with it multiple smash hits. With “Rolling in the Deep,” “Someone Like You,” and “Set Fire to the Rain” all topping charts, Adele became the first female artist to have three simultaneous singles in the Billboard top 10. At the next year’s Grammys, Adele took home all six awards she was nominated for, becoming the only woman to ever do so other than Beyoncé.

Adele entered 2015 with more Grammys and renewed vigor under her belt. After nearly eight years since her official debut, the artist was ready to take on her title as one of this generation’s greatest popstars. She effortlessly segued into her next project by releasing the smash hit “Hello.” The single’s nostalgia, regret, and wistfulness weaved their way into listeners’ hearts and laid the groundwork for her next album 25.

With the help of “Hello” and Adele’s impeccable vocal range, 25 was one of the best-selling albums in 2015. It was no easy feat, especially with other top-notch artists like One Direction, Justin Bieber, and Rihanna also releasing new music. However, Adele’s presence pushed forward and remained steady on the worldwide charts.

Her most recent LP 30, released in 2021, continued to take the world by storm. Adele broke new ground as she sang about motherhood, depression, and divorce. It was a candid look into the artist’s private life, unveiling her struggles during the past six years.

Like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Celine Dion, and Britney Spears, Adele joins the long list of artists who have made themselves comfortable at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas as performers-in-residence.

As Adele’s discography grows, so does her popularity. Her breathtaking voice, devotion to her creative development, and work on upcoming albums keep her at the top of her game.

Adele continues to tour and perform live. Like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Celine Dion, and Britney Spears, Adele joins the long list of artists who have made themselves comfortable at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas as performers-in-residence.

Live reviews

(Adèle in Ziggodome 6-6-2016)

We zijn op visite geweest bij Adèle. Niet bij haar thuis, maar in de Ziggodome. Sinds kort is ze niet meer zo'n huismus als vroeger. We waren vooraf behoorlijk zenuwachtig, want we waren nooit eerder bij haar geweest. Helemaal voor niks natuurlijk, want zodra je samen aan zit is het heel gezellig. Het was zelfs zo leuk dat nu een gevoel van gemis overheerst en het besef zeurt dat een dergelijke ervaring nu ver weg is.

Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (59)Ja, het was geweldig wat Adèle neergezet heeft. Het was het laatste concert in de rij van 4, dus we hadden zowel positieve als negatieve dingen gelezen. En geloof me alle negatieve opmerkingen zijn gezeur, dat is zoeken. Het was bijna perfect, slechts tijdens 1 nummer op het midden podium begonnen de bassen te stapelen, waardoor een vervelend soort gerommel de rest van de muziek af en toe overstemde. Slechts 1 nummer was niet perfect qua geluid. Maar dat is ook alles.

Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (58)De muziek van Radiohead of Pink Floyd is niet te vergelijk met die van Adèle. Als artiest is ze wel van een eenzelfde orde van grootte. Nog maar een paar weken geleden was Radiohead in de HMH een memorabel concert en nu is er weer zo'n intense ervaring bij gekomen. Niet in de traditionele zin van een popconcert, maar in de unieke variant die Adèle daarvan gemaakt heeft. Een soort huiskamer als podium voor haar stem. (Uiteindelijk is de huiskamer de beste plek om echt naar muziek in alle details te luisteren.)

Adèle heeft een glorieuze stem, een stem die je diep kan raken. Samen met een begeleiding die haar stem perfect aanvult. De man achter het geluid heeft wat dat betreft ook een geweldig resultaat neergezet. De band/begeleidingsorkest was aanwezig, maar Adèle bleef op de voorgrond in een hele mooie mix. Live, maar in detaillering van het geluid de beleving van een studio opname. Alles staat in het teken van de muziek van Adèle waar haar stem zo'n belangrijke plaats inneemt.

Een gedachte tijdens het concert was: "Deze vrouw heeft alles." De stem, het vermogen om mooie muziek te schrijven. De omgeving om dit tot een prachtig product te maken. Het team om een live optreden een sensatie te laten worden. De finesse om het

onvergetelijk te maken.

Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (45)Confetti met handgeschreven boodschappen van Adèle! Wie denkt er aan en wie voert dat ook uit: Adèle en haar team. Ze heeft alleen een dikke kont, zoals ze zelf in haar Engelse bewoording riep tijdens de "selfie sessie" voor het publiek, maar zelfs daarvan is het discutabel of dat een minpunt is. En niet te vergeten een gezin en een gezinsleven. Ze gaat gewoon met haar zoontje fietsen in

Amsterdam. Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (5)Het belangrijkste van alles, ze laat ons meegenieten van haar talenten. De een vindt het gebabbel tussen de nummers door vervelend, zelf vind ik het een hele mooie persoonlijke manier om elk nummer op een voetstuk te zetten.

Dat alleen zingen op zich niet optimaal kan blijven boeien wordt ondervangen door een extra podium. Daar werd "Set Fire To The Rain" zelfs voorzien van een heus regen Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (64)gordijn om haar heen. Prachtig, ik geef toe dat ik iets met water heb, maar toch. De moeite wordt toch maar gedaan om dit voor elkaar te maken. Dat ze ruim de tijd nam voor een "selfie sessie" met het publiek om haar heen, ik vind het alleen maar vermakelijk en geniet van haar humor bij het commentaar op haar poseer houdingen. Hadden we er maar bij gestaan, en ook een selfie kunnen maken.

Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (63)Ook op de setlist is alleen maar aan te merken dat het nooit genoeg is. De opener "Hello" was vanzelfsprekend en veroorzaakte al meteen kortsluiting in alles wat bij voelen betrokken is in m'n lijf. Een soort vreugde kramp waar ik tijdens de volgende nummers

langzaam van herstelde tot "Water Under The Bridge" voor een nieuwe "verstikking" zorgde. Voor mij vreemd is dat "Skyfall" uit de lucht kwam vallen met een aanval op de beheersing. Mooier dan ooit. "Make You Feel My Love" blijft bijzonder als cover, hulde ook aan Bob Dylan.

Zo kan ik over bijna alle volgende nummers ook wat zeggen. Dat zou te veel zijn. Adèle kondigde op een zeker moment het eind van de avond aan waardoor een lichte paniek over me heen kwam. Shit, wat is de tijd snel gegaan! Heb ik alles wel goed Adele in Ziggodome 06-06-2016 (71)genoeg in me opgenomen en beleefd? Onzin natuurlijk, maar wel reden om de rest van de avond naar binnen te zuigen en elk moment te beleven. Ook nog even om me heen kijkend of dit wel op video vast gelegd wordt. Ik kon het niet ontdekken, maar is wat mij betreft een must. Dit wil ik nog een keer terug zien en horen. Wat een mooie avond!

The journey from the center of the arena to the main stage was lit by camera phones and shrieks of joy. Once there, “Hello” transitioned into “Hometown Glory”. London landmarks gave way to the Denver skyline, as the lyrics changed from ‘my hometown’ to ‘your hometown.’ What could have come across as gimmicky at some mainstream country show, somehow rang true as an honest tribute to the city in which Adele was an honored guest. The cynic in me didn’t want to show any emotion, but there was something so enchanting about the way she sang “the wonders of my world”, while images of the Rocky Mountains towered above her, that I just couldn’t help myself. It had been less than ten minutes since she had first appeared and I was already powerless against her charm.

“How many of you did not want to come tonight?”

(only someone with extreme self-confidence would ask that question, so when a few men confirmed, she had the perfect response.)

“Thank you for being a good sport and making my show sold out.”

Speaking as one of those people who don’t listen to Adele’s music on a regular basis, my biggest complaint is the lack of variation across her songs. There is no denying that voice of hers, but I feel like her albums are very vanilla. I do believe her lack of range is by design though. Keeping it safe is what has allowed her to appeal to so many, while offending so few. Last night didn’t exactly change my mind when it came to her songs, but her tremendous personality and sense of humor provided a depth that I wasn’t aware of before. She could have performed the entire concert solo and I would have been entertained. The fact that the screen eventually dropped after “One and Only”, exposing twenty musicians, including a whole crew of extraordinary backup singers, just added to the spectacle.

“My music isn’t that much fun…I hope you knew that.

I do have a couple upbeat ones…

let’s get them out of the way, so we can cry.”

Self-confidence gave way to self-awareness as the crowd came alive for “Rumour Has It” — one of the few songs you could actually dance to. There was a very classic feel to the presentation. The stage was framed in solid light, while Adele’s image projected in black-and-white like some movie star from the 50’s. The stellar band was separated into strings, percussion, and voice; all indispensable to each composition, but also completely anonymous and respectful of who they were there to serve. For a diva, Adele was surprisingly approachable as well. When she asked questions, she made it a point to listen to the answers coming from the front rows. There was a dialogue between her and her fans. When she saw a guy in a purple shirt, passionately singing along, she invited him and his friends on stage to take a selfie.

Hi, my history at the concert is really sad...For months I have tried to reunior the value to tell them..i tell you:

I am Venezuelan, In my country it is very difficult to get money to go to concerts, But adele in mexico was my best opportunity Since I have an uncle living there, So look for money in bank credits and work very hard to get a ticket for the concert and plane to get to mexico on November 15...After a lot of fight and help from incredible people who held out my hand ... I did it Had ticket for the show of November 15, and flew to mexico on November 12 with stopover in panama.

Everything went very well until two days before my trip my boyfriend in a fit of jealousy burned my passport, Yes as I tell them I burn it in a microwave, and there was no way to be able to travel so my dreams were shattered and my bank accounts at zero since the plane tickets were not Refundable and in my country the crisis worsened and it is impossible for me to leave my country now ..

Do not know how much I struggle to go to the show, for me not only is the music of adele she for me is inspiration and admiration for showing that dreams come true so it was very sad for me to lose everything to two days of achieving it.

I regret not having a great story to tell about the show ... sorry for my english I confess to ask the translator for help

I do not know if someone read this, I just know that I finally gathered the courage to be able to tell it .. if I had the opportunity I would try again, no matter if my dream is to go to an adele show, maybe other people have different dreams like knowing Snow, travel to Paris, no matter how big or small the dream or how many people oppose or discourage us, the important thing is not to give up ..

for now I will not be able to reach this dream but I hope I can do it and get up Again until I said I did !!

Jessica Da Silva from Venezuela.

It is hard to know what to say that hasn't already been said, the list of superlatives has been done and each one is accurate. Adele may be nervous performing live, and there are times where that shows through, but somehow the fact that, arguably, the worlds finest singer shows a vulnerability adds to the performance especially when combined with her self deprecating honesty.

The attention to detail is clear, the fact that she thanks the guy who delivers 'hot honey' by name, thanks the guys who surround the stage during Skyfall and says 'see you all Saturday' shows that she is no Prima Donna artiste, Somehow through a meteoric rise, through all the fame and fortune she still retains that ordinary north London girl wanting to entertain her audience and entertain she does, in spades!

The T Shirts personally signed fired into the crowd, the note left on the back of someone's seat all these acts of kindness make someone's night unforgettable.

However, all of the humour, beautiful touches and adept performance are totally dominated by that voice, that wonderful, utterly unmistakable, beautiful voice which towered over Wembley Stadium and owned the evening. The songs are expertly crafted works of art in their own right and I love them all but if she sang the phone book I would pay to listen.

The highlights for me are predictable, Hello, Skyfall, Feel my Love, Set Fire to the Rain and Someone Like You, all of which were belted out by 100,000 people, these are the spine tingling moments you experience rarely in life. The one song I would still love to hear live is River Lea, lyrically brilliant and one of my all time favourite songs.

If you have never seen Adele perform live you really do need to and this may be your last chance, although I cannot tell you how much I hope it is not!

Having seen Adele previously at the Hammersmith Apollo a few years ago we really wanted to get tickets again, my wife tried for many hours to get tickets for her last tour and when this 4 night tour went on sale she tried again we were successful getting tickets for the Wednesday night, the only problem was she had no choice but to buy the drinking package at £249 each but because we wanted to see her we had no choice but to buy them. We had had an email form Songkick advising us to arrive early for security check which was understandable in the light of recent events, the line to enter was building up when we arrived at 4.30 pm, everyone was waiting for the 5pm opening, 5pm passed and everyone were patient but they did not start letting people in until around 5.20 pm. Eventually we were let in to the Bobby Moore suite to start the evening with a drink, the food choice for the suite was very limited, sushi, salad or hot dog (which were not hot at all), we enjoyed a few glasses of wine before we entered the stadium. Once we got to our seats for the start of the show is when we realised that if we wanted to see anything we should have taken binoculars even though we were only on the second tier to be honest Adele was a dot on the stage. Adele performance was amazing and once again she meet our every expectations she has an brilliant voice and is so down to earth. Paying that kind of money to see her show was worth it just to experience her voice and music, but paying that kind of money for the entry to the Bobbie Moore suite (which was just a function room) was really over priced. We had a fantastic time listening to Adele but the before part was a total waste of money.

Few artists have enjoyed the success over the course of a career spanning several decades that Adele has achieved over the past few years. Escaping the curse of that dreaded second album, ‘21’ propelled Adele into superstardom faster than anyone could have predicted and has broken probably every record that was there to be broken.

Seeing Adele live at the Royal Albert Hall back in 2011 was a really special moment. Clearly overwhelmed by the whirlwind success of the album, she took to the stage with a vulnerability that made her instantly likeable and relatable, whilst still delivering a class A performance.

Chatting to the audience like they were all friends and wanting them to feel like they were watching the gig ‘in their living rooms’, the most special moment of the evening came when the every single member of the 5000 strong audience belted the lyrics to hit single ‘Someone Like You’, leaving a speechless Adele visibly emotional and barely a dry eye in the house.

No big production or special effects were needed, as the beauty of the live arrangements and of those lyrics that made ‘21’ the masterpiece that it is, were enough.

Having publicly admitted that she suffers with severe stage fright, it is probable that we will not witness Adele touring arenas or stadiums. I believe this to be a good thing, as the beauty of her live show could not be appreciated in such big surroundings. Just make sure your one of the few who gets a ticket.

I was waiting ages and hoping Adele would announce a new tour since the 21 tour that i missed for being minutes slow for the tickets.

As the 25 tour was announced my only goal was to get those tickets at any cost! Everything seemed go bad from the start as the page for the ticket pre-sale did not work for me. I had no choice but to divert to viagogo and pay my ass off for two tickets - all my savings were lost... BUT - it definitely WAS WORTH EVERY DIME!

After few hours driving, overnight trip by ship and frustrating times getting to the concert area - We finally really were there.

I did not know what to expect from the show. But what ever it would be, i knew i would love just to see and hear her sing live.

As the show kicked off the feeling was just phenomenal - the emotion was to be hand felt. The show was not rockets, pyros and any fancy stuff... just Adele and smooth graphics and wisely chosen video backgrounds. But what else would it even need - nothing! Because... Adele!

The show kept the audience in it's embrace the whole set. It even made the bond to the audience deeper as she really got involved in person with some of us. She asked a couple fans up on stage and even sang a duet with one!

Anyways - will recommend to go see and hear her live to everyone! Adele is my number one female artist and i would not have missed her live tour again - and am really happy i did not.

Go, see, hear and love Adele!

First, I must say, that show was AMAZING!!!The black & white screen matches her music style perfectly, including the videos playing on.

Let's talk about Adele and her performance.She's a talented singer over the world, of course. Not only she can write and sing such good songs as Hello, When we were young, Send my love, etc., but also she's able to control the live show very well.Her voice, stage style, funny small talk between songs, even the eye contact with each audiences, proves that she can hold this grand show all by herself! That is a two-hour performance without any silence break, except for 3 minutes underground walk from central stage to main stage. It's unbelievable since almost all songs she sang were highly difficult!

She is a kind and responsible singer, also. No matter where you are, you can receive her beautiful smile and shining eyesight during the concert. She can even play jokes nearby the crowd! That must be everybody's good memory! Her humors and straightly personal characters make her so closed with fans. After each song, you may just treat her as a good friend when she talking!

As a VIP, I do think it's valuable to have such good musical listening and watching experience, except for the seat, which is not good enough for a VIP. However, that should be the problem of the hall's condition.

I must say, you should go for at least one Adele's concert in your life!

Our family of 4 daughters, my husband and myself saw Adele on 10/03/17, her first Sydney show. We have loved Adele since we listened to her first album in 2010. As soon as we heard she was coming we knew we had to be there. Even though we were seated very far away from the stage Adele made everyone of the 950000 crowd feel like we were all much closer.

Every moment was fantastic, Adele's phenomenal voice, the amazing video footage of Adele's eyes opening as the show started to the final song of Someone Like You, where the sound of the huge crowd singing in unison with Adele was unlike anything I have ever heard. The circular stage setup was amazing, giving everyone access to seeing Adele. Adele walked the circle giving every part of the stadium a chance to see her. The video footage that played with the songs was beautiful and ensured you kept your eyes on the stage.

The set list was a wonderful collection of Adele's 3 albums. Her interaction with the audience was funny, sincere and she really made us feel like we were right there with her.

I think when you see your daughters crying with the emotion of getting to see Adele live and then more crying because it was even better than you could of dreamed, speaks volumes. I would see her again in a heartbeat if I could and would say to anyone if you can go then do it!

I attended her concert in the biggest venue here in Oslo, Norway – Telenor Arena. It is perhaps mostly known for its lack of acoustic quality. The room is simply put way too big and sterile for that. Nevertheless; The Adele Tour team actually pulled it off this time though, and were able to fill the «dead» space in a more that satisfying manner.

Now, enough said about the venue. To the music: Being the big fan that I am it would be hard to hide my subjective judgement of the performance and music presented by Adele. But with that said I think it is fair to say that she, as a performer, is one of the best there is in the world today. She gives a lot of herself to the audience and often includes random attendees in the most spontaneous ways.

Music wise there is almost nothing to say other than that it is absolutely outstanding. Adele brings such a huge presence with her voice, unlike anyone else in the industry. Even the less “complicated” songs become big and overwhelmingly magnificent.

All in all, you get the feeling that Adele knows how it is to be “on the other side” (had to write that) and therefore she isn’t afraid of posing for a selfie or giving out large amounts of waves to the crowd.

There is no doubt that Adele forever will be remembered as one of the greatest artist of our century.

South Africa: Computicket Confirms Adele Presents: Coming to Africa Concert is A Scam

Adele fans are crushed following an announcement on the Computicket website that the British songstress would be coming to South Africa on tour. Alas, it wasn't meant to be.

Moments after the  Adele Presents: Coming to Africa  concert was listed as an event on the ticketing service provider's website, fans were dumbstruck at the cost. For only R89, music lovers would get to see the  Rolling In The Deep  star performing live in concert.

The ticket price set off alarm bells and Computicket was forced to set the record straight. While speaking to  The Citizen , the company said it had removed the event listing from its website and started the process of refunding fans.

"As such it has been suspended and removed from sale pending clarification from the promoter. Refunds for all patrons who purchased tickets have already commenced," Computicket told the publication.

Adele is currently hosting her Las Vegas residency. According to  SeatGeek , a ticket to her show can average around $2,350 (about R42,000). And that's just for a floor seat. However, the website did say prices may vary by date and seat location.

The queen of love songs prefers intimate shows and often brings fans onto stage. In one show, a couple did a gender reveal, while a little girl was treated to an impromptu duet and they sang  When We Were Young  together.

Adele also has a knack for bringing some comic relief to her concerts. "Adele may be a singing phenomenon, but she has the wisecracking audience repartee of past Vegas greats such as Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin," said a review on  USA Today .

Tickets to her shows are hard to come by. The next round of her Las Vegas shows is scheduled for October and November this year.

Adele’s R2.3 billion pop-up stadium: A game changer for concerts

Adele’s groundbreaking R2.3 billion pop-up stadium in Munich is designed to be the world’s first portable concert venue.

Adele has just finished her month-long residency in Munich, but the legacy she leaves behind is more than just a series of stunning performances at her pop-up stadium.

ADELE’S POP-UP STADIUM

Her R2.3 billion purpose-built pop-up stadium is about to make history as the world’s first portable stadium, according to Daily Mail.

Rewritten in Active Voice:

ABBA Voyage’s arena in East London inspired the creation of this cutting-edge venue, designed to travel the world. It will bring concerts closer to fans, no matter where they are.

The idea of a portable stadium might sound far-fetched, but it’s a reality.

POP-UP STADIUM ON THE MOVE

Adele’s final show in Munich is over, so they will dismantle the stadium and prepare it to move to a new city.

Constructed in just a few weeks, the stadium is designed to be easily transported and reassembled.

This concept allows artists to stay on tour without the need for permanent venues, according to The Guardian.

POP-UP STADIUMS: THE FUTURE OF LIVE PERFORMANCE?

An insider shared, “It would have been a catastrophic loss of money for an entire stadium to be built only for these ten Adele shows, even though the tickets aren’t cheap.”

They added, “But a load of different superstars, such as Beyoncé or Taylor Swift, could use the venue in years to come.”

While the stadium was specifically designed for Adele, its potential future uses are exciting, according to The Sun.

ADELE TAKES A BREAK

However, after her European tour, Adele is eager for a break.

She’ll be heading back to Las Vegas to wrap up her residency before taking some well-deserved time off.

The steep cost of the venue might explain why fans had to pay up to R8,000 for a ticket.

But not everyone felt they got their money’s worth. Some attendees in Munich were disappointed with their experience.

FEEDBACK FROM FANS

Fans in the seated pit found themselves standing on chairs just to get a view of the singer.

One frustrated fan posted online, “I paid R7,300 and I couldn’t see anything.

My friend was in the back for R1,400 and had the best view. I was fuming.”

This wasn’t an isolated case. Many fans shared similar frustrations online, with some deciding not to attend after hearing the complaints.

HIGH FRUSTRATIONS

These issues persisted throughout Adele’s residency, leading to growing concerns among ticket holders.

One particularly upset fan mentioned, “Security was ordering people down so we were all level.

It was an absolute joke. Paid all that money to barely see anything.” The venue, which can hold 80,000 people, also had some logistical issues.

NAVIGATING THE CONCERT

Nina Frenchy, who attended the concert in a wheelchair, described it as the “worst experience” of her life.

She had to navigate large stones outside the stadium, making it nearly impossible to get a taxi after the show.

“The organisation to get a taxi after the concert was horrible. They did not think of a way out for disabled people,” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

CHANGING LIVE MUSIC

As Adele’s Munich residency comes to an end, her portable stadium is set to change the live music industry.

The concept of a mobile, reusable venue might just be the future of touring. However, as some Adele fans discovered, it’s not without its challenges.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE IDEA OF A PORTABLE STADIUM?

Adele Surprises South Africans, Invites Them Onstage During Sold-Out Munich Concert

Adele invited two South Africans on stage during her Munich concert, turning their night into a joyous, unforgettable experience.

Munich, Germany (12 August 2024) – In a moment that will be cherished by many, two lucky South Africans found themselves centre stage with global superstar Adele during her recent concert in Munich. Out of a massive crowd of 80,000 fans, Clement Manyathela and his friend Basani were invited to join the singer on stage, turning an already unforgettable night into something truly magical.

Adele’s concert in Munich, part of her highly anticipated residency at the purpose-built 80,000-seat arena at Messe München, has been the talk of the town. Known for her soulful voice and heartfelt performances, the British singer has been captivating audiences night after night with a record-breaking 22-song setlist. But on this particular evening, it wasn’t just Adele’s powerful vocals that stole the show; it was the sheer joy of two South Africans who had flown across the globe to see their favourite artist.

Adele spotted a group of South Africans in the crowd and invited one of them to join her on stage. While making her way to the stage, Basani invited Clement Manyathela, a well-known radio personality from 702 and Cape Talk, to join her as he was celebrating his birthday.

“You guys are just being such a vibe!” Adele exclaimed, beaming as she welcomed them to join her in the spotlight.

The interaction that followed was nothing short of heartwarming. Adele, always known for her down-to-earth nature, shared a lighthearted chat with Clement and Basani. She playfully reminded Clement to “actually push record,” ensuring he captured the moment for posterity. The trio then posed for a selfie, immortalising the night with smiles and laughter. Adele, ever gracious, thanked them for their dedication, acknowledging the 16-hour journey they undertook just to be there.

But the highlight for many fans, especially those from South Africa, was Adele’s final words to Clement and Basani: “I’ll will come to South Africa. I love South Africa”

Clement and Basani’s reactions said it all. Their faces were filled with pure joy, reflecting the love and admiration they—and millions of others—have for Adele. It was a moment that perfectly captured the magic of live music and the unique connection between an artist and her fans.

As the night continued, it was clear that this wasn’t just another concert—it was a celebration of music, connection, and the unexpected surprises that make life so special. For Clement and Basani, it was a birthday and a memory that will undoubtedly last a lifetime. And for everyone else, it was a reminder of how powerful these shared experiences can be, especially when they come from the heart.

Adele invites South African up on stage at Munich concert

Updated Aug. 12, 2024, 2:23 p.m. | By East Coast Radio

Share this:

Popular radio and television broadcaster Clement Manyathela got on a call with Carol Ofori to share his excitement about being called on stage by Adele. 

You do not often see your musical idol on stage and then be humbled by her invitation to join her on stage, but it was all part of this South African's birthday luck. 

Popular radio and television broadcaster Clement Manyathela is in Germany for his birthday. He was pleasantly surprised to be invited on stage at Adele's concert in Munich on Saturday, 10 August 2024. 

He said being at the concert was enough of a birthday present, but getting on stage was unimaginable; you could say the cherry on top. Surprisingly, he was called on stage because he was in the right place at the right time. 

Even though the media have been saying he was called on stage with a friend, the woman who went on stage with him was another Adele fan standing close to him during the concert.

How long is Adele's residency?

Adele's residency has so far ran from 18 Nov 2022 to 25 Mar 2023 and the further six-month extension from June to November 2023 means that Adele's residency in Las Vegas will have run for almost 12-months. The first set of dates comprised of a five-month series of Friday and Saturday night shows.

The residency was originally planned to take place between 21 January and 16 April 2022 but it was delayed on 20 January when Adele announced the postponement of the entire residency, at the time she told fans, "I'm so sorry, but my show ain't ready. Half my team have COVID and it's been impossible to finish the show."

Adele residency salary

Adele reportedly earns $616,446 (£500k) a night for her Las Vegas residency and it's claimed the singer-songwriter was offered $1.2m (£1m) per night to extend her show. The shows have been extended for 34 more dates and if the new salary is true, she would be set to rake in more than $40million (£34m).

South Florida girl dressed as ‘Mini Adele' has unforgettable moment with singer at Vegas show

When valentina arguello, who is from fort lauderdale, flew to las vegas for an adele concert, she captured the hearts of millions by dressing as a mini version of the singer., by constance jones • published june 18, 2024 • updated on june 18, 2024 at 6:28 pm.

At a recent Adele concert in Las Vegas, a 4-year-old South Florida girl named Valentina Arguello stole the show in a way that could only be described as "Rolling in the Deep."

Dressed as Adele's mini-me in a stunning dress that mirrored the star's iconic style, she captured the hearts of everyone present.

Valentina’s unforgettable moment came during Adele's weekend performance. The singer noticed the young girl dressed in a beautiful black dress detailed in white silk taffeta. It matched one of Adele’s famous looks featured on her Instagram.

As Adele paused to say hello and snap a quick photo with Valentina, the heartwarming interaction was captured on video by her mother, Alexandra. The clip quickly went viral, amassing over 8 million views online.

During an interview with NBC6, Valentina eagerly responded when asked if she had any favorite Adele songs.

"'Hello'!" she said.

She even sang a bit for us: "Hello from the other side..."

Valentina's mother explained how she was just browsing for tickets to see her favorite artist when she came across tickets for the Las Vegas show and "by default, Valentina, who has grown up listening to all of her music, who is also a big fan, and when I said I got tickets: 'I want to go to Las Vegas.'"

With only three days before their trip, the challenge of finding an outfit began. Valentina expressed that she wanted to look beautiful, and indeed she did. They spent the next day finding inspiration online, and when they did, Valentina's grandmother — who happens to be a seamstress — was able to make the iconic dress just two days before the trip!

Valentina's dress took inspiration from one of Adele's red carpet looks, a black formal dress detailed with white silk sleeves.

Valentina may not fully grasp the extent of her viral fame, but her family does. They are incredibly proud of their little girl and the dress, which her grandmother put together just three days before the concert.

“Rumor Has It” that this is a moment the Arguello family will cherish forever, celebrating not only Valentina's star moment but also the love and effort that went into making it possible.

Adele Unveils First ‘30′ Tour Dates

Executive Editor, Music

Adele , master of the slow reveal, has unveiled what appear to be the first two dates of the tour in support of her forthcoming album “30” — and they’re a blockbuster: two nights in London’s Hyde Park next summer, the sprawling green in the middle of her hometown that has hosted concerts by everyone from the Rolling Stones and Queen to Elton John and Blur.

Adele announced the dates, which are scheduled for July 1 and 2, 2022, on social media early Tuesday.

She announced earlier this month in a lengthy Instagram post that her long-awaited ‘30’ album will be released on Nov. 19. The first single, “Easy on Me,” dropped earlier this month.

In the post, she writes: “I was certainly nowhere near where I’d hoped to be when I first started it nearly
3 years ago. Quite the opposite actually. I rely on routine and consistency to feel
safe, I always have. And yet there I was knowingly – willingly even, throwing
myself into a maze of absolute mess and inner turmoil!
I’ve learned a lot of blistering home truths about myself along the way. I’ve shed
many layers but also wrapped myself in new ones. Discovered genuinely useful
and wholesome mentalities to lead with, and I feel like I’ve finally found my
feeling again. I’d go as far as to say that I’ve never felt more peaceful in my life.

The album finds the singer working again with Greg Kurstin — who paired famously well with her on “25” — and Max Martin, Inflo (known for his work with Sault) and Swedish composer and producer Ludwig Göransson, who won an Academy Award for his “Black Panther” score and has worked closely with Childish Gambino. There are no featured guests on the record.
