What does unreserved mean on Ticketmaster?

Okay, so you’re wondering about “unreserved” on Ticketmaster, huh? I get it, it’s a bit confusing. Seriously, Ticketmaster could use a clearer explanation sometimes, am I right?

Basically, “unreserved” means it’s a free-for-all when it comes to seating. Think of it like a mad dash for a seat at a really popular, you know, really popular concert. Limited seats are available, and it’s totally first come, first served. Remember that time I went to see that indie band everyone was raving about? Yeah, “unreserved” seating. I ended up practically glued to a wall because I arrived late. It was brutal. My friend, Sarah, she arrived an hour early and got a pretty decent seat, though. Go figure!

And if all the seats are taken? Well, then you’re relegated to standing room only. It’s usually behind the seated area, so you’ll be standing, possibly craning your neck to see over heads for the entire show. Not exactly ideal, especially if it’s a longer concert, right? So, yeah, arrive early if you want any chance of actually sitting down. I learned that lesson the hard way! Otherwise, you might be doing the whole concert standing, possibly on someone’s foot. Not fun.
