The Weeknd KL presale sells out

- The Weeknd’s Kuala Lumpur artist presale sold out in just over two hours on May 18, as Jakarta opened a separate BCA presale on May 19. - Go Live Asia said the Kuala Lumpur allocation was gone by about 12:38 p.m., while Jakarta prices ran from Rp950,000 to Rp12.7 million. - Jakarta’s BCA presale runs through May 21 at 12 p.m. WIB, with general on-sale scheduled for May 21 at 2 p.m.

The Weeknd’s Asia ticket rollout produced two distinct signals in 24 hours: a fast sellout in Kuala Lumpur and an active new presale in Jakarta. Malay Mail reported that artist-presale tickets for “The Weeknd: After Hours Til Dawn in KL” sold out in just over two hours on May 18, with the allocation exhausted at about 12:38 p.m. after a 10 a.m. start. Jakarta moved to its next sales phase on May 19. Tirto reported that the BCA presale for The Weeknd’s September 2026 Jakarta shows opened at 12 p.m. WIB on Tuesday and runs until May 21 at 12 p.m. WIB, with purchases routed through myBCA. ### How fast did Kuala Lumpur sell out? Kuala Lumpur’s artist presale lasted a little over two hours. (malaymail.com) Malay Mail said a check of the Go Live Asia ticketing site showed the presale, which began at 10 a.m. on May 18, was fully sold out by around 12:38 p.m. (tirto.id) Go Live Asia told fans who missed that allocation to join the next presale window. Malay Mail reported the ticketing platform posted: “The Artiste Presale allocation is now fully sold out,” and directed buyers to a Maybank Visa credit card presale the following day. (malaymail.com) ### What is happening in Jakarta now? Jakarta’s current sales window is the BCA presale. Tirto said the presale opened on May 19 at 12 p.m. WIB and is reserved for BCA users, with transactions handled online through myBCA. BCA’s own promotion page also advertises exclusive access through the myBCA Lifestyle feature beginning May 19 at 12 p.m. WIB. (malaymail.com) The official Jakarta tour site lists two dates at Jakarta International Stadium — September 26 and 27, 2026 — and shows artist presale, BCA presale and general on-sale windows for both dates. The same site says general on-sale is scheduled to begin on May 21 at 2 p.m. Jakarta time. ### How expensive are the Jakarta tickets? Jakarta ticket prices top out at Rp12.7 million before tax and other charges. (tirto.id) Liputan6 reported that tickets for the two Jakarta International Stadium shows are sold in 10 categories priced from Rp950,000 to Rp12,700,000. (theweekndinjakarta.com) CNN Indonesia separately reported the same ceiling price and said TEM Presents had released the pricing structure for the Jakarta concerts. That report also said the cheapest category starts at Rp950,000 before tax. ### Are both Jakarta dates still available? (liputan6.com) The official Jakarta ticket site currently labels both September 26 and September 27 as “Sold Out.” The site still lists the sequence of sales phases beneath each date, including the BCA presale and the May 21 general on-sale window. That combination suggests demand moved quickly across the initial allocations, though the site does not, in the excerpt available, break out how much inventory was assigned to each sales phase. (cnnindonesia.com) ### What should buyers watch next? May 21 is the next fixed date in the rollout. The official Jakarta site says general on-sale opens at 2 p.m. WIB on Thursday, while Tirto says the BCA presale closes earlier that day at 12 p.m. (theweekndinjakarta.com) WIB. Kuala Lumpur buyers, meanwhile, were directed by Go Live Asia to the Maybank Visa credit card presale after the artist allocation sold out on May 18. (theweekndinjakarta.com) Malay Mail reported that message as the next step for fans who missed the first window. (malaymail.com) (tirto.id)
