Ticketmaster site appears to crash at start of LiveNation concert week sale

Ticketmaster and LiveNation sites appear to have crashed on Wednesday, the start of the annual concert week discount sale.

When trying to reach a page to buy discounted tickets, users were presented with a “503 error” page. Issues have been reported on desktop and mobile apps.

Downdetector shows thousands of reported of users having issues with Ticketmaster.

As of about 11:30 a.m., it looks like ticket purchasing is back online.

This year, the annual sale runs from May 8-14, with more than 5,000 discounted shows, including dozens coming to Detroit-area venues this summer. Tickets for the shows are just $25 (plus tax), with all fees included in the price you see, while supplies last.
