As soon as I receive an email that extra tickets have become available, do I have first choice as a Waiting List registrant? No, everyone who receives the email can then buy tickets. So be quick, because first come, first served. Related articles Will I always receive an email when I am on the Waiting List? What is the Waiting List? I have subscribed to a Waiting List. Will I also receive an e-mail when a new tour of a certain artist, or a new edition of a certain festival, is planned? I don't see a Waiting List option at the event I want to attend, but I would like to be put on a Waiting List. What do I do now? Does subscribing to a Waiting List guarantee tickets?
