Concert for Diana tickets sold out

Tickets for England's Prince William and Prince Harry’s “Concert for Diana” which went on sale today have already sold out.

But the official website www.concertfordiana.com posted a message saying more would be released in the New Year.

The £45 (€66) tickets for the moving tribute, expected to feature some of the biggest names in pop, were up for grabs from 9am.

The online message read: “For now, tickets have sold out. More tickets will be released in the new year, keep checking back.”

Callers trying to buy tickets via the Ticketmaster telephone hotline received a recorded message saying there were no more left.

The concert is taking place on July 1 next year, which would have been the Princess’s 46th birthday.

More than 60,000 people will gather at the new Wembley Stadium for the celebration of her life.

William and Harry announced their plans to mark the 10th anniversary of Diana’s death yesterday.
