However, tickets were immediately scooped up by ambitious scalpers who were looking to make a buck off of the reasonably priced tickets. The Coloring Book rapper tweeted out a picture of the almost 2,000 tickets he bought back from “f*ckboy scalpers and made them into physicals”.

Chance took matters into his own hands, buying nearly 2,000 Magnificent Coloring Day floor seats from scalpers – who were asking $200 or more for the coveted tickets – and selling them for $45 and $75. According to Chance’s twitter account, they cancelled the tickets that were purchased by scalpers, and reissued them has hard tickets that can only be picked up by the person who purchases it.
Chance’s festival already has appearances scheduled from Skrillex, Lil Wayne Young Thug and more.
Chance The Rapper continues his streak of doing no wrong. “And these are just floor seats”, he tweeted, alongside a picture of the ticket haul (below).
And those 2K tickets disappeared fast, too, with Chance since tweeting that the festival has again sold-the-fark-out.
