BIGBANG Hanoi has sold out — how to buy second-hand without losing money

Where things stand

BIGBANG 2026-2027 World Tour in Hanoi runs on 24 and 25 October 2026 at My Dinh National Stadium, sold exclusively through CTicket.

According to Dân trí, tickets sold out roughly two hours into the sale. All rounds closed in August: a fanclub presale, a bank-card presale, then the public sale.

So there is no official source left. Everything now on offer is second-hand, and that is where the risk lives.

The above comes from news reports rather than the organiser. Check it against the show’s and CTicket’s own announcements before acting on it.

Why this is the most dangerous moment

The stretch between a sell-out and the show is peak scam season, because three things coincide:

• Buyers are in a hurry. The closer the date, the less anyone checks.
• There is no reference price. With no official sale left, nobody knows what is reasonable — which is exactly what a scammer needs.
• Nothing can be verified. For most shows there is no way to confirm a code is still valid before the day. You find out at the gate.

Five frauds common at this stage

• One code sold to several people. The same screenshot to several buyers; whoever scans first gets in.
• Tickets that never existed. A genuine ticket image taken from elsewhere, payment accepted, seller gone.
• Already-voided tickets. Bought with a fraudulent card and cancelled later. The resale buyer usually finds out on the day.
• A stranger offering to hold the money "for safety".
• Pressure to pay now. "One left", "ten minutes" — designed to stop you checking.

What to check before paying

• Ask whether the show has an official transfer channel. If it does, use only that — it is the only route where ownership really changes and the old code dies.
• Video call and have the seller open the ticket inside their account, not a screenshot. A screenshot proves nothing.
• Read the seller’s oldest posts, not their newest.
• Search their name or account number together with "scam" on Google and in fan groups.
• Pay an account in the same name as the person you are talking to. A different name means stop.
• Save every message and receipt at the time, before anyone can delete them.

On price: what counts as abnormal

Face value for this show ran from about 1 million to 10.5 million VND by tier, per VnExpress. Knowing that range gives you a benchmark.

Both directions should worry you. Several times face value is speculation. Below face value for a sold-out show is almost always a trap — nobody sells scarce goods at a loss.

And remember resale above face value usually breaches the organiser’s terms, which include the right to void the ticket. Paying more does not buy safety.

We are not taking orders for this show

Plainly: the sale is over, so there is nothing to camp. We do not resell tickets and do not buy on the resale market for anyone — that is a rule, not a capacity problem.

The reason is simple: with a second-hand ticket nobody, including a proxy buyer, can verify the code is still valid before the day. Taking money for a risk you cannot control is not something to do.

If you want to prepare for the next show so this does not happen again, that is something we can do — and it starts before the on-sale is announced.

The lesson for next time

This show sold in rounds: fanclub first, then holders of a particular bank card, then the public. Most good seats left in the early rounds.

If you only watched the public sale, you joined thousands of places behind. For the next big tour, the thing that matters is not the general on-sale clock but qualifying for an early round — joining the official fanclub, or holding the right card, done in advance.
