NO surprise here: Due to expected, “overwhelming demand,” Live Nation has announced that a second show will be added Saturday, Aug. 30 to the previously announced Friday, Aug. 29 Chicago stop of the super-popular One Direction boy band’s “Where We Are 2014” stadium tour.
Tickets for both shows at Soldier Field will go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday at livenation.com, where additional information about other pre-sales opportunities for fans also can be checked.
Since Citi is the official credit card for the the tour, Citi cardholders already have early access to pre-sale tickets to the second show — as of 10 a.m. Wednesday. For complete pre-sale details go to citiprivatepass.com
