Lady Gaga fans faced a coronavirus warning message when purchasing tickets for her new tour

Lady Gaga fans were faced with a warning message relating to the outbreak of coronavirus when buying tickets for her 2020 tour dates.

The singer, 33, is heading on The Chromatica Ball Tour later this year and will perform six exclusive shows in different cities, including London and Paris.

Gaga’s London show will be held at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in July, but when fans went to buy tickets, they were confronted with a coronavirus message.

Ticketmaster warned fans that their tickets will not be covered if they choose not to go to the gig due to fears of ‘contracting coronavirus’.




Underneath a section that relates to concert-goers purchasing insurance for their tickets, a new coronavirus section has been added.

It reads: ‘Info COVID-19: When considering the purchase of a policy, please note that many event ticket insurance policies will not cover claims or financial losses related to epidemics or pandemics.

‘For the sake of clarity, the fear of contracting coronavirus is not covered by event ticket insurance policy.’

The virus has become a global health concern, after cases have been confirmed in countries all over the world and continue to increase.

Fans have seen many artists forced to cancel shows because of the unpredictability of coronavirus and how bad the situation will be at the time of their scheduled shows.

Brit-winning band Foals decided to cancel their Japan tour dates, while K-pop boyband BTS have cancelled their tour dates in Seoul, South Korea after the region has been struck by the infection.

Fans had their tickets refunded, with many choosing to donate the fee to coronavirus relief efforts in the area.

Lady Gaga’s new tour will also see her perform four shows in Boston, Toronto, Chicago and New Jersey during its limited run.

It comes after Gaga finally treated fans to new music, as she dropped her latest single Stupid Love last month.

She has since confirmed that a new album, titled Chromatica, will be following in April.

It marks her first album release in four years, after her record Joanne which was released back in 2016.
