Gallery apologises after Kraftwerk ticketing disaster

Bosses at the Tate Modern art gallery in London have apologised “unreservedly” for a ticketing disaster this week which left many fans of German electronic group Kraftwerk unable to see the band after the gallery’s website could not cope with demand.

It created further frustration when the gallery then began selling tickets to visitors who turned up to Tate Modern – which will host the show – to buy them in person, which had not been part of the original plan.
