The highly anticipated concert of The 1975 is set to take place on Monday at London's O2 arena. Despite the fact that the performance is still three days away, dedicated fans have already started queuing up to secure their spot in the front row for the show. The group, led by lead singer Matty Healy, has a loyal following and their coveted tickets sold out in record time.
The O2 arena has allowed fans to camp overnight outside the venue in order to get to the front of the standing area for the best view of the controversial singer's performance. This has become a trend in recent years, causing some debate among concert-goers who may not have the time or resources to camp out for days in advance.
The 20,000 capacity venue will see The 1975 take the stage on Monday, February 12, for the first of four consecutive nights in London. While some venues discourage early queuing and have systems in place to avoid unruly waits, others, like the O2, welcome the enthusiasm of fans.
Twitter user Zoe, who is leading the queue for the concert, shared a post on February 9 announcing the start of the queue. The post quickly went viral, reaching over 4.4 million users in just one day. While many fans were excited and supportive, there were also some negative reactions from those who didn't understand the need to camp out for a concert so far in advance.
Some criticized the group for their behavior, comparing it to homelessness and questioning why they were allowed to camp outside the venue while others are not. Disability activist Faith Martin brought attention to the fact that disabled individuals often have limited access to concerts and events, while others pointed out the potential health risks of camping outside in the cold and rain.
Despite the backlash, the excitement for the concert remains high and fans are eagerly awaiting Monday night. The Agency has reached out to the organizers and individuals involved for comment.
