Europe Stadium Tour 2019 was the first stadium tour in the career of Rammstein. It started on 27 May 2019, and ended on 23 August 2019.

Information

The tour was officially announced on 2 November 2018. During that week more and more posters, announcing concerts, were spotted in several cities all over Europe.

Pre-sale for the tour began on 8 November, LIFAD members got early access to tickets starting on 5 November.

For concerts in Germany, the tickets are personalized to the ticket owner. Only people who were printed on the ticket are allowed to enter the venue and see the show. If a fan couldn't make it to a show, he was able to sell it on the Eventim website FanSale, for the same amount of money. This way scalping is made impossible. Besides that, tickets for shows in other countries were not personalized.

People were able to win tickets to sold out concerts of this tour, when they visited one of the truck stops of the Truck tour.

LIFAD presale

Sold out LIFAD membership

The exclusive LIFAD presale began on 5 November 2018, and ended on 7 November 2018, both at 10 am local time. Members were able to buy a maximum of six tickets per show. Presale tickets were a limited contingent. During the time of the presale, the LIFAD membership was marked as "sold out" in the official online Rammstein shop.
