As we mentioned a few weeks ago, Mumford and Sons will be coming to the Downtown Raleigh Amphitheater in June. The date has been set as June 8th and tickets go on sale Friday, April 8 at 10 a.m through Live Nation. The Low Anthem and Matthew and the Atlas will open the show.
(Ticket prices will be released soon).
Unfortunately tickets for this show sold out quickly and are now for sale (almost 800 tickets) at ridiculous rates on Stub Hub.

Downtown Raleigh Amphitheater Mumford and Sons
I didn’t think they charged for the downtown budlight series concerts.
This isn’t part of the budlight concert series.
Looks like tickets are $40-$47.

These steep service fees are keeping me from attending a lot of these shows. I’m skipping the decemberists, and I’ll probably skip this one too… It bugs me when i can see the Eels at cats cradle for $18 + 2 dollar service fee yet these are ~$25 + $13 service fee. It’s a bit absurd.
buy it from the performing arts center box office and avoid the service fees.
Too late for that. I was at the Box Office at 10:10am (the went on sale at 10am). I went in thinking I was going to get a block of reserved seats, they weren’t even able to find me 2 seats together. And while I was there, the entire thing sold out, lawn and all. I avoided some, not all, of the ticketmaster fees by going to the box office, but who knew this show would sell out entirely in under 20 minutes?
I was online at 10:00…waited for around 10 minutes for ticketmaster to come up with tickets for me and by then they were sold out. SO UPSET!!!! I can’t believe it!!! I hate ticketmaster and am soooo upset that I might not be able to see them. :(
Same here. I am a pro at Ticketmaster. Or so I thought. I got shut out. By 10:15 they were on the secondary markets started at $71.00. Agh.
A lot of people got tickets during the Live Nation pre-sale. Still a ton of obnoxious fees, but all you need was the password (it was ‘band’) and you could get them on the 7th. I think I’m going to try to get on the pre-sale train for a lot more in-demand shows in the future.
How did a band this shitty get so popular.
I doubt their so shitty Andrew if they sold out in ten minutes..
Ran across this article on NBC17….Snoop at the Raleigh Amphitheater
It’s very likely that this show did not sell out in 10 minutes, but rather Ticketmaster/Livenation sold tickets directly to scalpers before tickets even went on sale, with the agreement that those scalpers sell through Ticketsnow, a scalping site that Ticketmaster owns (and, therefore, gets cuts from scalpers’ sales). This happened with the LCD Soundsystem MSG show. They do it with the DPAC. And it’s likely happening here. And until there is an investigation, it will continue to happen again and again. Which is a shame. Regardless of anyone’s opinion on any band, this kind of fraud shouldn’t be happening
This happened when wilco came to Durham—ticketmaster has direct-to-scalper relationships—they are actually the sole owners of TicketExchange.com—that are unscrupulous at best, and probably illegal. I try hard to avoid shows and venues that use tm as their only broker.
Could watch the show for free from the top of the parking deck ![]()
