Tour Price Roundup (10/30)

After a stacked few weeks of announcements, tickets for some upcoming shows have gone live. From the long-awaited return of Rush to the long-repeated return of Iron Maiden, here's how the first round of sales actually played out.

Below are real Ticketmaster snapshots from the Rush, Conan Gray, Foo Fighters, and Iron Maiden sales, each showing what fans were really paying when the dust settled. Each is dated from October 30th, 2025. Use these as a reference point for the months ahead when resale prices start to shift.

Rush (Verdict: Wait)

Even with prices being sky-high for this sale, Rush comfortably sold out 4 nights at Scotiabank Arena. All that remains are resale tickets across all four shows. I wouldn't despair, though. The group has announced dozens more dates across North America, including stops in Montreal, Edmonton, and Vancouver. This is what I had to say about the tour when it was announced.

Keep an eye on resale markets over the next few months as hype cools and inventory trickles out.

I expect resale to cool substantially. In the meantime, here's the state of Night 2's availability.

• Fully sold out of blue tickets
• Plenty of resale available for all dates

Rush - Fifty Something (2026)

Well, it finally happened. Canadian legends Rush are back with their first tour in 11 years. The first without the legendary drummer and lyricist Neil Peart who we lost in 2020. Filling his shoes on this comeback run is German drummer Anika Nilles, who looks more than up for the

Conan Gray (Verdict: Big Wait)

Conan's sale looked to have gone well. No blue dots on the map, with prices starting as low as $47. Pit looked to have been near impossible to get non-VIP tickets for. There are a lot of resale tickets relative to the modest hype around the tour. I still fully expect cheap tickets closer to showtime.

Here's how prices looked when tickets went on sale.

• Pit tickets were extremely limited and almost exclusively sold as VIP packages
• Keep an eye on resale closer to February

Conan Gray - Wishbone (2026)

Gen-Z heartthrob Conan Gray is making his way back to Toronto as part of his Wishbone World Tour. Gracefully moving on up from prior shows at Mod Club, REBEL, History, and recently Bud Stage, Conan has his sails set on Scotiabank Arena as he continues his voyage to world dominance.

Foo Fighters (Verdict: Tossup)

Prices for this tour look reasonable. It doesn't look like dynamic pricing was enabled, and I only see a few rows touting Platinum status. So far it looks like they'll be sticking to a single date. With this many seats still available at respectable prices, I expect very cheap tickets available closer to the date.

• Pit looks to be sold out, but I'd expect resale for pit to drop
• Thousands of seats available in all other sections

Foo Fighters - Take Cover (2026)

Dave Grohl and Co. are heading out on tour next year with some.. peculiar stops along the way. The news came paired with a scorching single, presumably kicking off the promo cycle for an upcoming album. This will be the Foos first bout in Toronto since the tragic loss of

Iron Maiden (Verdict: Wait)

Just as I expected, prices were absurd for this presale. Striking right when hype peaked, a second night was added "due to overwhelming demand." Here's what I had to say on my original post for this tour.

Legacy tours aren't known to show mercy with pricing, and there's no reason to assume an exception here.

Let's take a look at that overwhelming demand for Night 2 ahead of both shows' general sale.

• Pit looks to be sold out for both nights; expect to be able to find tickets closer to showtime
• Tickets readily available for all other sections

Iron Maiden - Run For Your Lives (2026)

Heavy metal titans Iron Maiden are yet again charting a course to Toronto. This time, they’re celebrating 45 years since their first visit to Canada & the US. Joining them will be metal vets Megadeth, who have recently rung the bell for their imminent retirement. While the setlist is shaping up

These early snapshots are just the start. I'll be keeping tabs on how these tours move in the resale market in the coming months, noting down when and where prices start to drop. My goal here is simple: to make sure fans know what the real face value looks like. We have seen before the price of "Standard Admission" suddenly drop, with previous buyers left holding the bag. Every sale we document makes the ticket game more transparent and more fair for everyone.
