Tame Impala presale and resale guide: Maximize your chances for “Deadbeat Tour” tickets

Tame Impala just announced a full slate of 2026 North American “Deadbeat Tour” dates, and fans are already scrambling to figure out the best way to get tickets. Between the Artist Presale, venue and promoter presales, and the general onsale, it can be hard to know where to start—or what to do if you strike out early.

This guide lays out exactly how Tame Impala’s Artist Presale works, what happens if you don’t get presale tickets and how to use resale (especially on SeatGeek) to your advantage, so you’re as prepared as possible when tickets go live.

Step-by-step guide for Tame Impala's Artist Presale

Follow these steps in order so you’re fully set up for Tame Impala’s Artist Presale before tickets go live.

Sign up for the Artist Presale

• Go to Tame Impala’s official website and click “Tour” in the top menu.

• Find the show you want to attend and click “Sign up” next to that date to open the Seated registration page.

• Fill out your name, email, and any requested details for that specific show.

• Artist presales via Seated begin Wednesday, February 18 at 12:00 PM local time and require pre‑registration for a unique password or code.

Confirm your Seated registration

• Make sure you’ve signed up separately for each city you want to attend. Seated presales are show‑specific and codes are not universal.

• Watch for a confirmation from Seated (via text or email) that your registration was received.

Receive your unique Seated code and link

• Before the Artist Presale opens (typically 20–30 minutes before the 12:00 PM local start time), Seated will send you a unique, often one‑time‑use code and a direct ticketing link via text or email.

• These codes are tied to your registration and cannot be broadly shared or reused across other shows.

Join the Artist Presale on Ticketmaster (and AXS for select venues)

• On Wednesday, February 18 at 12:00 PM local venue time, use the link from Seated to open the ticketing page for your show on its primary ticketing site.

• Log in to your ticketing account a few minutes early with your payment details already saved.

• When prompted, enter your Seated code in the “Offer Code” or “Presale Code” field to unlock Artist Presale tickets.

• Select your preferred show and seats, then complete checkout as quickly as possible, since Artist Presale inventory is limited and may sell out.

Use other presales if needed

• If you miss the Artist Presale, additional presales run Thursday, February 19 at 12:00 PM local time, including AEG/venue, Ticketmaster/AXS, and radio presales.

• All presales end Thursday, February 19 at 10:00 PM local time, before the general public onsale.

What happens if I don’t get Tame Impala presale tickets?

If you miss out during the Artist Presale or other early windows, you’ll still have a chance to buy primary tickets during the general onsale, which begins Friday, February 20, 2026 at 12:00 PM local time on Ticketmaster (and AXS for select venues). Primary inventory can still move quickly, especially for weekend and big‑market shows, so it’s worth logging in early with payment details saved.

SeatGeek is one of the best ways to keep tracking Tame Impala tickets across the tour. You can compare verified resale listings from multiple sellers in one place, see all‑in pricing upfront, use Deal Score to spot good value and rely on interactive maps to find seats that fit your budget before show day.

What are the advantages of buying Tame Impala resale tickets?

Buying Tame Impala resale tickets at SeatGeek has some key advantages compared to relying only on presales:

More chances after early windows close If Artist and venue presales sell out quickly, resale keeps giving you new opportunities to buy as other fans list their tickets later.

Broader seat and date options over time As the tour gets closer, more people adjust their plans and list different sections, price points, and dates, so the mix of available seats can actually improve versus what you saw at presale.

Access to premium or hard-to-get sections Some of the most in-demand areas—like lower bowl, floor, or side-stage sightlines—may only appear (or reappear) on resale after initial buyers decide to sell.

Market-driven pricing (not just face value) Resale prices can be higher or lower than face value depending on demand. For certain dates or cities, last‑minute listings sometimes undercut original prices, which rarely happens during presale.

Flexibility if your plans change Relying on resale lets you wait until your schedule, travel, and friends’ plans are locked in instead of committing months ahead during the presale rush.
