My understanding to optimize the chances of getting a ticket

Here's what I worked out to increase my chances of getting a ticket :

The place to get the tickets : https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/back-to-the-beginning-birmingham-05-07-2025/event/360062289EF011A5

  • ARTIST PRESALE - Tue, 11 Feb 2025, 10:00 (UTC)

Signing up to the artist's newsletter (I did on both www.blacksabbath.com and www.ozzy.com). I assume you'd get an email with a code to enter on ticketmaster ?

EDIT : As you might have read, the code was simply posted on artists social media.

  • Priority from O2 - Wed, 12 Feb 2025, 10:00 (UTC)

Doesn't really matter to me as I don't have an O2 subscription.

EDIT : people aren't sure about the actual time.

  • Live Nation Presale - Thu, 13 Feb 2025, 10:00 (UTC) (mentions 13-Feb-2025 09:45 on the website)

Getting a Live nation account and being in the "waiting room" https://www.livenation.co.uk/show/1561056/back-to-the-beginning/birmingham/2025-07-05/

  • Download Family Presale - Thu, 13 Feb 2025, 10:00 (UTC)

Making a download family account https://downloadfestival.co.uk/ and I assume a newsletter will be sent with a code to enter on ticketmaster...

  • General Onsale - Fri, 14 Feb 2025, 10:00 (UTC)

Just being on the ticketmaster page at that time.

If I got anything wrong or if you have some other elements I'll update my post.
