I went to the Troxy two years ago to see Nick Cave, it was seats and standing, no reason why it won't be the same set up for Polly. See you upfront on the barrier!

thanks

Similar to Shepherds Bush Empire, and not unlike the Forum, Apollo or Koko. Seated upstairs, then 2 tiers standing at ground level; the front 1/4 is below stage, then a small balcony with the rest at stage level. Thought the best view was at the small balcony.

New pics!

yes ,the date is the 19th on the site? strange

What is the phone number btw?

I have +32 34 0000 34 for Brussels

the German website still hasn't begun selling tickets, but the French ones are selling... selling very briskly, all seats in the circle and balcony were gone first, now the tickets for the floor are disappearing fast. fortunately I got mine.

by the way, it is standing audience downstairs (on the floor) in Berlin as well, so my careful research for a seating chart was in vain.

OK, I can't go to Brussels because I'll be on a trip... I was so excited about the concert that I had forgotten about it.
I could go to Paris but now all the internet tickets are sold...
Does God not want me to see PJ any more???

I hate it when they don't start selling at the appointed hour. well actually, that german website hasn't announced any specific starting hour, so maybe I shouldn't be saying this. but I'm in an internet cafe (here in Prague) and it's costing me money for each minute I'm waiting.

however I made a phone call to order a ticket, they answered allright but couldn't hear me well enough to take my order on the phone (something wrong with my microphone having too low volume and I adjusting it didn't help), so I was requested to send an email. was told (on the phone) that I'd get a reply "in the course of the day". how reliable is that? even though it most probably is reliable, I'm feeling nervous about it, not knowing whether I'll actually get a ticket for Berlin. tickets were selling so swiftly for Paris (and there they will soon be sold out) so I have reason to worry a bit about Berlin.

just sharing my little vexation here, for fellow gardeners to read about.

good luck to everybody else buying tickets today!

Yeah, Olivier that phone number isn't the correct one I think.

Site seems to behave beeter now, I got my brussels tickets.
Anyway, the Belgian site first showed a give the 19th (it's the 18th).. will there be a second show of the first one sells out fast?

you should have come to London & i'd have sorted it

got mine sorted

I was just about to order a ticket for the London show too (just to be certain of being able to go to two shows) when suddenly I got a confirmation email from the german venue.

Berlin and Paris, yo!

I'm going to see Polly again.

(where do I find the menu with the emoticons? I would have liked to insert a dancing figure at the end of my previous sentence.)

by the way, I should tell anyybody who may still be waiting for the german website to start this ticket sale, that I got my ticket by sending an email not to the ticket agency but to the venue:

tickets@papagena.de

their phone number is: +49 (0)30 4799 7499

hurry up and good luck!
