Adele flogging €35 Lucky Dip tickets to Munich residency

Adele is flogging €35 Lucky Dip tickets to her Munich residency.

Just days before she is due to kick off the 10-date run at the custom-built stadium, on August 2, the Grammy winner is giving fans the chance to attend – without knowing where they will be seated or standing until the day of the gig.

A listing on Ticketmaster reads: “Location of the ticket will be allocated the day of show, anywhere from the back row to standing in the front.

“€35 per ticket, inclusive of all fees.

“The location cannot be changed once allocated.

“Maximum purchase of 2 tickets per person

“Tickets must be collected from the box office in person, day of show

“Tickets cannot be transferred or resold.

“There are a very limited number of Lucky Dip tickets available each week, when they are gone, they are gone!”

Adele recently announced she has no plans to release new music anytime soon as she prepares to take a “big break”.

Following the conclusion of her Las Vegas residency in November, the 36-year-old superstar is planning to take things easy and spend quality time with her sports agent partner Rich Paul, 42, and her 11-year-old son Angelo – whom she has with ex-spouse Simon Konecki.

The ‘Hello’ hitmaker told German outlet ZDF: “I don’t have any plans for new music, at all.

“I want a big break after this and I think I want to do other creative things, just for a little while.”

Adele has made no secret of the fact that she is also keen to have another baby.

The ‘I Set Fire To The Rain’ hitmaker previously confessed she is a long way off from returning to the studio to work on a follow-up to 2021’s ’30’, however, Adele promised that when she does return with a new record, she will do a world tour.

She told gig-goers at her ‘Weekends With Adele’ Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace earlier this year: “I just don’t think I’m gonna write an album for quite some time.

“But next time I do, I’ll come to wherever it is you live.”

The singer extended her Sin City residency and reflected on how performing and having intimate interactions with her fans has helped her “reconnect” with her music.

The ‘Chasing Pavements’ singer also explained why she started disappearing from the limelight for long periods before releasing a new album.

She said: “Sometimes I wonder if people think I’m calculated when I disappear for years on end and I’m elusive and I believe that less is more or something like that.

But the real reason that I’ve only had four albums and I don’t think that many people know this – they know that I have a child – my son is 11 years old. So if you do the math, that means that at the height of ‘21’… I fell pregnant. To many that would be, and it was, considered career suicide.

“It was there and then that I chose to reject the scarcity of success, and the idea that you have to be constantly relevant to be successful.

“And that perhaps, just maybe, I could be a hit both on and off the stage. And you’ll never guess what — I [redacted] got away with it!”
