Donald Glover fans are furious after tickets to the rapper's upcoming Australian tour sold out in minutes - only to turn up on Ticketmaster's resale website minutes later, and at double the price.

Glover will be in Australia later this year to headline Canberra's Spilt Milk music festival, and earlier this week it was announced that he will also perform shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.

Tickets to the shows - Glover performs under the stage name Childish Gambino - went on sale at midday on Friday, with thousands of people flocking to Ticketmaster to secure theirs.

After waiting in lengthy queues online, many fans were left empty-handed - and quickly noticed the tickets were popping up on Ticketmaster Resale, with prices pushed up significantly higher. The resale website allows people to safely and legally resell their allocated seats without the need to go to a third party.
